Oculus Ready PC's

Which word is that?

I wrote 'no' for 'know' (corrected now to hide the shame )

the only thing to dislike about this is that it will be another 5 years before they produce mobile cards capable of running the Rift well.

MSI are going to be sticking full fat desktop 980s into laptops!

They've been doing that for some years. Haven't heard great things about it. Heat management is an obvious issue.

But I do believe that next gen top tier mobile gpus' (Pascal) should be able to handle Oculus. (Fingers crossed Andy. )

I classify those as "briefcase" desktops. And they still have massive heat issues and, can barely run 45 minutes on full power off the battery, and plugging in the charger builds up even more heat.
Forget about putting these on your lap if you want to have kids, or don't like first degree burns, and just typing is like touching a plastic radiator.

Considering the cost of just one of these is enough to build not one but two full size desktops without the heat issues even when just running on fans for cooling and they both would perform better for longer.

5th amendment? or am I looking at the wrong word?
