Okay, slight hyperbole from OP, but the point still stands: most people need to buy (and find room for) a desktop PC in order to experience VR.

Also, you linked to a parts list. This automatically excludes most people who don't have the knowledge or motivation to assemble their own computer.

Completely valid criticism. That being said, the Gigabyte Aero 14 is a fantastically priced and built gaming laptop that might be able to pull off VR (if not, you can get GPU enclosures now).

Personally I find that roomscale is a bit of gimmick, but I'm more interested in seated VR titles because I'm one of the lucky few that don't get VR sickness (another valid concern).

As in external GPUs? Would these connect to USB3 or do they require something more heavy duty?
Thunderbolt only.
