Look, brother, I do not know how to say this but if you are seriously into VR, drop AMD right now and go Nvidia without a doubt. AMD is obviously second best as usual, their cards although have good specs just plain suck...now add to that this new VR era and AMD has done NOTHING. Not one announcement about anything VR related. The massive news on the 25th of Sep was about an AMD GPU that was already available to the West, being now available in India..WtF 🙂
Nvidiaat has announcement VR Direct, which means you will be able to play all your games with your DK2. Even ones that are not supported.
Vote with your wallet and ditch AMD. Let them hang themselves. Sell your piece of shit of a card and come Nvidia.

OP, you have a killer rig more than capable for developing and for great game experience as well. Save your cash and enjoy what you have, I wish I had 7950.

Rift demos will work on both AMD and Nvidia GPUs.
Personally I'm more of an Nvidia guy, but AMD should also work OK.

Wow how did you manage to pull such a giant pile of bullcrap out of your ass.
I can go and go about why I preffer amd but thats just an opinion as worthless as yours because PREPARE FOR THE SHOCKING TRUTH... YOU WILL HAVE EXACTLY THE SAME GAME EXPERIENCE ON BOTH BRANDS! And most of the time it's cheaper to go amd.
Ohh, Nvidias "hmd mode". Thats just time warp which palmer promised will work on all cards for cv1. "vr direct"? Oculus are openly agains that and if you really want to just use a 3d driver like tridef (works for amd). You dont need these features to develop. And if you absolutely need low latency just turn vsync off.
OP, you have a killer rig more than capable for developing and for great game experience as well. Save your cash and enjoy what you have, I wish I had 7950.

Lol, please do tell me what part I made up?
Nvidia users will enjoy a plethora of games in VR with VR Direct. We won't have any issues with anti-cheat mechanisms within games and will have VR support for most of the games that have 3D vision support. Add to that the recent SLI announcement and it is bye bye AMD.
So what was announced on September 25th? You know, that massive marketing scheme that had red and blue pills as an ad...enlighten us.
Enjoy using your third party injector that doesn't even have DK2 support...rofl mmyess Have fun with the crashes and comp resets.
After all this and NOTHING from AMD in relation to VR technology, it would be stupid to buy an AMD card.
