The Oculus Rift price has dropped to $399, but I’m concerned about potential increases later in the summer. You’re thinking of purchasing it at the end of the year when you’ll have a VR-capable PC ready. Any insights?

Don’t wait to get it right away; you can assemble the PC afterward. Could you share your current specifications?

I’d probably think about it for a long time, if not forever, since the HTC Vive is beating them in sales.

According to Steam, my PC is VR-ready. Upgrading the CPU would be beneficial. I also hope the prices remain stable.

They mentioned the price reduction is temporary. If you intended to purchase it, now is the best opportunity.
