Solution
If your budget is $1300, then you can easily get it. Here are some more powerful versions of the builds I shared:

AMD:
PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zgYkb8

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor ($298.99 @ B&H)
Motherboard: MSI X570-A PRO ATX AM4 Motherboard ($129.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: Team T-FORCE VULCAN Z 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($62.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Team MS30 256 GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive ($39.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($39.99 @ Adorama)
Video Card: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 8 GB GAMING X TRIO Video Card ($623.99 @ Best Buy)
Case: Phanteks P300 ATX Mid Tower Case ($59.94 @ Amazon)
Power Supply: SeaSonic...
At 1080p 60fps, you can get by with not much. What is your budget? I am provide AMD and Intel builds for a budget of $1000 - $1200. Do you need a monitor, peripherals? The builds below will easily do 144 at 1080p too.

I added a Ryzen 7 to keep it powerful for at least the next few years, but if you want to shave costs you can step down to a Ryzen 5 and take a B450 motherboard instead.

Intel i5 here because an i7 would not be best fit for the budget.

With a budget so high, 1080p 60hz will be insanely easy to achieve.

The new consoles use
8c/16t AMD Zen 2 CPU
Navi GPU (radeon RX5700xt is closest we currently have)

Same build as before but with a 2080 instead if you can go $55 over $1300. Only problem is I feel a 550W PSU might be cutting it close, but it should be fine.

This Intel build is $36 over $1300, but with an i5. If I were you, I would go with the Ryzen build to ensure longevity.

Hi, I am looking to buy a pc, I am interested in buying one that can run vr with games such as fallout 4, gta v, ect, and I want to know how much power would I need to run these vr mods? Is a rx580 with a ryzen 2600 enough? Thank you.
