I was running the compatibility check on my PC, and when it was done, it displayed this text: Your NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Graphics card does not meet the minimum requirement which is a NVIDIA GTX 970 or greater. Now I am pretty sure 1050 is higher than 970. Can anybody tell me what is going on?
Keep in mind that when you are below the requirements you may experience some performance issues, especially with some of the more high-end games. The Oculus software will largely mitigate this so it still looks smooth on your end but, depending on the game, it may not run well.
