Sure thing! Would your CPU limit performance if you tried to run a top-tier VR headset like the Valve Index or Vive Pro? Thanks!

Viewing a GPU bottleneck this way isn't helpful. For VR you should have separate enough CPU and GPU power to maintain smooth performance. Beyond that it doesn't really matter much. Right now I own a 6600k in my VR setup (the original Vive), which I acquired by swapping a 6700k elsewhere. It works fine for my needs, but if future content gets more demanding an update might be necessary.

The 6600K is an excellent VR CPU available today. Most VR titles don’t need a large number of cores.
