VR isn't as picky about CPUs as it is about graphics cards. For CPUs, the fourth gen i5-4590 is the minimum requirement. We won't have a complete picture of CPU requirements until the Rift and Vive launch and more testing can be done. But if you choose a current generation i5-6400 or above, you'll be good to go.

The AMD RX 590, 580 and 480 gpu's should be quite capable of VR, in fact i'd wager you'd see smoother frames on those units then a GTX 1060 6gb card although it might be a close call.

CES 2019: Nvidia RTX 2060 Is VR-Ready With VirtualLink For $349. Nvidia just kicked off CES 2019 with the reveal of its latest GPU, the RTX 2060 VR-ready card. As the name suggests, this is the lower-end entry into the new 2000 line of graphics cards. ... That's not all from Nvidia's show, though.

That's only half of the hardware, though. You also need a PC that can handle virtual reality. Oculus recommends a system with at least an Intel Core i5-4950/AMD Ryzen 5 1500X CPU, an Nvidia GTX 970/1060 or AMD Radeon R9 290/RX 480, 8GB of RAM, three USB 3.0 ports, and an HDMI 1.3 port.

Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070: The new VR sweet spot. Nvidia is tempting HTC Vive and Oculus Rift owners by updating its entire line of graphics cards in the last couple of months – from much better VR horsepower in the entry-level to absurd overkill (at least for today's software) on the extreme high end.

Yes, this can technically work—both cards will give you graphical output. However, different cards cannot be linked together to function as a GPU array (CrossFire or SLI), so you generally won't be able to use them together to render graphics in games.

As others have said, Nvidia cards don't support FreeSync. You're pushing it with a 970.

To test whether your PC is ready for the Oculus Rift, download the Oculus Rift Compatability Tool and run it. The tool will check your PC's hardware to ensure you have a sufficient graphics processor, CPU, RAM, and number of USB ports to support the hardware.
