[VR Question]

The notebook Im currently using does not work with HTC Vive because of the Optimus technology, I wonder if the Samsung Odyssey works with the Vive or should I go with the more expensive Acer Predator

I found a few Samsung Odyssey products. That being said the 1060 SHOULD be VR compatible.


I'm also trying to get an HTC Vive user I know to comment here too.
