Question need a new card to run vr

[cummins626]

currently have a cheap setup runs with a rx560 needs to upgrade to run vr what's a good card that can be paired to my PC CPU is AMD ryzen 3 2300x quad core processor core clock is at 1196mhz and monitor is off my TV so its 1080 but dont know if the vr needs 4k or something new to vr it's the oculus rift

New to upgrades so need some help. I want to play some VR got the oculus rift. My pc plays it now but only certain games and doesn't quite meet the requirements. Needs a more capabale GPU. So I have a ryzen 3 2300x with the stock radeon 560 Rx graphics card now. What can I upgrade to If any cards I cant seem to find a definite answer on what will match up. The VR requires a gtx 970 or radeon r9 290 or better to work good.

What is the make/model of your PSU? That has an impact on whether it can power a beefier GPU, or if you'll have to upgrade it as well.

A 65w PSU?

On the side of the PSU there should be a label with the make/model information.

You should be able to drive a RX 580 with that PSU. A Nvidia option would be a GTX 1070 or RTX 2070. Really depends on your budget and preferences.
