As you can see from the HardOCP VR Leaderboard chart above, the pecking order of how to obtain the best VR experience is clear. The GeForce GTX 1080 is the king of the VR experience. The GTX 980 Ti and the GTX 1070 are pretty much trading punches for the number two spot, but the 980 Ti still edges it out. Surprisingly the R9 Fury X card is only slightly faster than the RX 480, but the Fury X still lags well behind the GTX 1060. For those of you looking for a "baseline" VR experience, it is hard for us to suggest the RX 480, but it can get the job done. If you are going to shell out the cash for the HTC Vive VR gaming system, and I suggest you do, you're best off putting an extra $60 towards the GTX 1060 as it is going to allow you a better visual fidelity than the RX 480 and a better experience.

Personally, I can't justify the huge cost of getting an HTC Vive, especially considering that there's pretty much no content yet. Would rather spend the $ on a high end monitor.
