FS: HTC Vive

Post by Matty »

Having a bit of a clearout - had this HTC Vive in the loft for years. Tested and all working.
If anyone wants a cheap way into VR, still very viable.

£80.

(Probably easier to collect as it's a big box, but can ship)

Excuse the complete lack of knowledge but this would just plug into the Laptop and off you go?

Can you use it on Assetto Corsa etcs or is this a standalone thing?

Depends:
- needs a HDMI port and a spare USB3 port to physically connect to the laptop but;
- also need a decent graphics card and CPU. Difficult to say which, but at least a 1070/1080 or a 20xx series I'd guess for the original Assetto Corsa?

Also note this headset has tracking 'base stations' that need to be plugged into mains power. For seated, probably only need one connected - I just used to put it on the desk in front of me for racing/flying sims, but you're *supposed* to do it like this:
