Occulus Rift on cmP 6 core 3.46 and Titan-X - success !

6/24/2016

I dragged the Rift setup into the Lab where the cMPs are. Hooked it up to a 4,1/5,1 with a 3.46 6-Core and a Titan-X.

To make sure it would work well, I also used an Inatek USB 3 card. 

Setup was even easier than 6,1 nMP. 

On the plus side, it ran perfectly. On the "minus" side, it kept remid=nding me that my hardware wasn't good enough. I think it meant the built in USB 2 or the Westmere CPU.

But it ran just fine.

The game Chronos was smooth and efficient, looked good and ran smoothly.

​I may try with just the USB 2 and see what it does. But it is proven, there are Macs that can run VR. They just need a little help.

Anyone had any luck getting an HTC Vive working on a CMP and Titan-X?

To add to this, I have had the HTC Vive Pro running perfectly for some time on my 5,1 cMP 3.06 6-Core. I am also using a Titan-X (Maxwell) GPU.

The Vive Pro requires USB 3.0, so I have a USB 3.0 card installed, with a Fresco chipset.

I have not tried running VR natively on the Mac (there are more VR titles available for Windows), so I Bootcamp the Mac into Windows 10 and use Steam VR.

The Vive Pro runs just fine with all Steam VR games and VR movies etc. In fact, using the Steam benchmark app, the system is well above average and very capable for VR.

The music for me helps dispel suffering, bring joy, freshness, full of life. Enjoy favorite songs to help people relax and have a lot of interesting experiences., ... Thanks to that, we can focus better memorization in study and work.
