So , I live in Tunisia and I'm going to order from "Amazon Ca" an Oculus Rift + Touch controllers (Super excited). But super afraid because there is no refund or return policy in my Country = if it works , it works , if not I'll throw it ?

Ok, so I did a loooot of researching and watching every Oculus Rift Video on Youtube (Literally) . And just one thing that makes me afraid and don't want to make the purchase is THE SETUP ( Oculus rift setup) especially when it comes to The Sensors Communication test . A lot of people faced that problem . According to my research , this problem because of The Motherboard, somthing concerning USB 3.0 connection or I don't no . And some people suggest that you may need an external USB 3.0 controller ( I don't want that ) .

My question is : these are its characteristics ( please tell me it is good to play ( Beat Saber , Creed , Robo Recall , Gron , SuperHot etc.. ) (I read oculus Rift Low system requirements )

8 GB Ram GTX 1060 6 GB I5 8400 ****MSI B360M PRO-VD*****  ( this MOBO it has 4 USB 3.1 GEN1 Rear should it run correctly my 2 sensors ? ) but it has no integrated graphics card ( is it okay ? )

those will run my Oculus Rift without problems,Please answer me pleaaaaase.

Yes, it should work fine - but instead of educated guesswork - do try the Oculus Compatibility Check Tool:

https://support.oculus.com/1357437467617798/

Oculus Rift CV1, Valve Index & PSVR2, Asus Strix OC RTX™ 3090, i9-10900K (5.3Ghz), 32GB 3200MHz, 16TB SSD

Since he is only going 2 sensors then he should be fine (theoretically) with the Fourth 3.1 USB Ports. However, once you go 3 or 4 sensors then you may need to downgrade one or two of those USB Ports to 2.0.

Thank you for your answer .. sorry I cannot do this because I do not have the PC right now .. And the won t allow me to try it before buying it  ( in order to Run The Oculus Compatibility Check Tool ) 

So you think 
MSI B360M PRO-VD will do the trick ?  https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/B360M-PRO-VD.html

No one can give you a definitive answer. You'll need to invest in a machine that you can actually test using the Compatibility Tool. Anything else is guesswork that could land you in the wrong path.

Although there is a discussion on Reddit that has your MB as part of an Oculus Rift Ready build:

Good luck!

I think the mainboard looks fine - it's more your choice of cpu, ram and the video card. All should work fine though, if possible up the ram to 16GB - several games will need 16gb to work optimally. 6GB on the 1060 is a good choice.
