I'm getting more and more interested in a VR headset. As most of my games come through Steam, the Vive is at the top of my list - I know it may not have the most impressive specifications of the bunch, but support is a big part of a product like this.
I use a 1080ti, a 7700k, and 16gb of 3000MHz RAM. What kind of performance can I expect with this setup? I'm very spoiled on high refresh rate monitors, and am worried that the power needed for VR may force me to make sacrifices in IQ - or does refresh rate matter as much in VR?
Also of note, I use a wireless Corsair Void headset when gaming. Is this gonna work over a VR headset? What kind of cables will I need to have plugged in to my head while gaming? I didn't see any advertised Black Friday sales on the Vive, and the whole package seems to be going for $500 these days. Is that a decent price? I wear glasses and am nearsighted. As the screens are right in front of my eyeballs, does this mean I won't need my glasses while playing? If I do need them, will it work okay with glasses?
Sorry for the barrage of questions. I just wanna make sure I understand everything before I make a decision. Thanks all!
