[flexarq]

Hi, I plan to buy a gpu for my ryzen 5 1600 and 16gb Ram PC.
It will be for VR development in architecture visualization and then play with oculus rift CV1 (or CV2)

Is 1060 6g enough? or minimum i have to buy the 1070?
What are your advices?

Thanks in advance.

Doesn't those software suites depend what is more useful? Some utilize the CPU while others utilize the GPU for rendering. How heavy are you into VR development in architecture visualization? You def want more than 16GB of ram if you're serious about it.

Unreal engine uses both, CPU and GPU.
Thanks mate for the advices.

16gigs is fine if you don't get into heavy cad, maya, ect rendering. I'd personally start off with a 1070 as your starting point, but you can get by with the 1060 6GB. Just avoid the 3GB card.
