So, I got a new gaming laptop for Christmas last year.
I have always been a gamer girl and I always will be.
Since my previous laptop was 2009, this new one offered beautiful graphics, able to play mostly any game and such a smooth experience.
However, I found my way into the realms of VRChat. I wanted to experience VR and not just for the gaming.
I researched, ran compatibility tests which my laptop passed and finally purchased my Oculus Rift.
Myself and my two friends spent a total of 18 hours trying to fix whatever the problem was.
As a last resort, one friend found someone on YouTube who had my exact laptop and problem. They’d fixed it with a link box.
On I go to Amazon to spend £100 with all hopes it would fix it.
Waiting for the two delieveries for a few days, finally it arrived.
I connected it all up. Nope. Tried new cables. Nope.
I came to the conclusion that it was the laptop.
So, long story short, one of my friends (thanks babe) has spec’d this laptop for me so I can FINALLY enjoy my Oculus Rift.
I just ordered it yesterday and I am excited!
