Is this a suitable gaming PC setup under $500 that supports VR?
I am searching for a gaming PC suited for HTC Vive VR, capable of smooth 1080P gaming at 60 FPS and above. I need to run titles such as GTA V, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Battlefield One, and BF4, as well as Rainbow Six Siege and others released between 2010 and 2022 in 1080P resolution with 60 FPS or higher. Ideally, it should handle newer games from 2016 to 2020 at the same quality, and even reach 144 FPS would be excellent.
I found a suitable build on PCpartPicker:

The suggested components are listed with prices, quantities, and details.
1080p gaming is definitely feasible.
VR is not worth considering.
VR demands a high-performance graphics card:
"The Vive and the Rift both include two 1080 x 1200 resolution displays, but after accounting for factors like eye buffer and lens distortion, they converge to an overall resolution of 3024 x 1680. Considering each screen operates at a 90Hz refresh rate, the Vive and Rift push your system to handle and render approximately 457 million pixels per second at peak performance. Meanwhile, a typical 4K display running at 60fps delivers around 498 million pixels per second."
RTX 2060 is the bare minimum."
