Best PC for VR Gaming Under 2 Lakhs in India for 2024

Processor: The Intel Core i7 14700F is the processor that we are using in this build for its amazing overall performance, and not to mention, how good it is in gaming. As for the specifications, this processor features 20 cores (8 P-Cores and 12 E-Cores), 28 threads, and a 5.4 GHz boost clock.

Motherboard: For the motherboard, we are going with a slightly higher-end Z-series motherboard from MSI, namely, the MSI Pro Z790-P WIFI. As for features, you get DDR5 7000MHz support, enhanced power design, optimized thermal solution, fast-connectivity options like USB 3.2 Gen 2, PCIe 5.0, overclocking capability with compatible processors, and a lot more.

RAM: The Adata XPG Lancer RGB DDR5 32GB (16GB x 2) 5200MHz RAM kit takes care of the RAM or memory requirements of this gaming PC configuration. With 32GB of 5200MHz RAM, be assured that RAM won’t be an issue when you are gaming.

Graphics Card: For VR gaming, the graphic card is what matters the most, and in this budget, the RTX 4070 Ti is the best that we can manage to get. We are going with the Zotac GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Trinity specifically due to its triple-fan setup, high clock speeds, and Zotac’s trust and reliability.

CPU Cooler: The i7 14700F is quite a powerful processor, and it does heat up significantly when under heavy load. To ensure that high temperatures are not a concern, we are using the MSI MAG Coreliquid C360. This AIO liquid cooler is more than capable of keeping the processor cool and also improves the overall aesthetics of the setup with its stylish design and ARGB lighting.

Storage: For the storage device, we need something that’s fast so our games load fast and something large in capacity so that we can have multiple games installed together. The Western Digital Blue SN580 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD fulfills both these criteria.

SMPS: Since we are using a powerful processor like the i7 14700F and a graphic card like the RTX 4070 Ti, we need to ensure that our power supply unit is capable of managing a stable power flow to all these components. An 850-watt PSU like the MSI MAG A850GL is perfect in this case. This ATX 3.0 850-watt PSU comes with 80+ Gold certification, is fully modular, and is overall an amazing option.

Case: A good cabinet should have smooth airflow, a stylish design, solid build quality, and ample space to install large radiators, multiple fans, and long graphic cards. The Cooler Master Masterbox MB520 Mesh is one cabinet that takes care of all of that.

The hardware combination that we are using in this PC build makes it very powerful for gaming in general. When it comes to VR gaming specifically, it’s also amazing here. For the best VR gaming, you need a powerful graphic card, and the RTX 4070 Ti is just that. We are using the Zotac GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Trinity specifically, and this comes with a higher clock speed than most variants, making it even better.

When it comes to the gaming performance, you will be getting an enjoyable gaming performance even when using higher visual settings than most would, and the best part is that even with those high visual settings, the gameplay experience would still be buttery smooth.

Below, we have mentioned the type of gaming experience that you can get in popular VR games with this configuration.

Lone Echo 2: You will be able to play Lone Echo 2 at the highest settings in the 4704 x 2384 resolution. This is a very demanding game, and despite these settings, this gaming PC configuration is capable of running at 120Hz without any issues.

Assetto Corsa: In this game, you will also be able to enjoy the highest settings at 4704 x 2384 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. However, in certain situations, there will be some minor frame drops, but that’s not noticeable for the most part. If you want a better and more stable experience, then 90Hz would be the ideal refresh rate.

Half-Life Alyx: The gaming PC configuration is capable of playing this game at 4704 x 2384 at the highest settings (Ultra Fidelity) and with a refresh rate of 120Hz, and maintains smooth frame rates throughout.

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners: When it comes to playing this game, the gaming PC build in question here is more than capable. You can play it at the highest visual settings in the 4704 x 2384 resolution in a 120Hz refresh rate and still have a good chunk of performance headroom left.
