Oculus Rift Build, Thoughts?

[Nick Powell]

I've had to change up a previously planned build due to a slightly lower budget and some new bundle deals. The below specs are for a PC that I will be using purely for the Oculus Rift CV1, and from it goes slightly above all the required specs for the headset.

CPU: i5-6500
GPU: R9-390 Nitro X (might OC)
Mobo: MSI-B150M BAZOOKA
RAM: Hyper X DDR4 8GB (bundled with cpu)
Stor.: Kingston 120GB SSD + 500GB HDD

I already have a PSU and a case ready to use. How does this look? I'm getting it all for $1,035 Australian Dollars but I'd love to get the opinions of some more experienced builders!

Recommend having a motherboard that can support at least 2 GPUs otherwise you'll have to replace the 390 when you need more power.

Does any particular motherboard come to mind that would suit this build? The B150M was around $130 so any other board around that price you could recommend would be greatly appreciated.
