Oculus: add support for the Mac when Apple will make a good computer – PC World

As we all know, goggles Oculus Rift puts considerable demands
 hardware and are so far only compatible with PCs in
 Based on Windows, as confirmed by the founder of Oculus -
 Palmer Luckey, during one of the events of the Xbox.

Luckey was asked about plans for the provision of support
 Mac said that it all depends
 Apple . The Cupertino company however, must first
 create a machine that will be able to meet the demands of Oculus
 Rift . When this happens, and this is primarily
 layout, Oculus is willing to provide support for
 Apple computers.

Sorry, you can be purchased for a few thousand dollars Mac Pro version
 graphics AMD FirePro D700, and this would not meet the requirements
 posed by Oculus. Goggles require layout
 NVIDIA GTX 970, AMD 290 or faster , as in one
 seconds must generate even 400 million
 pixels . This is due to a higher resolution (2160 x 1200
 pixels instead of full HD) and a faster refresh rate (90 Hz instead
 60 Hz). Mac computers do not have graphics cards that
 would be able to cope with this task .

As a reminder, today takes presale Oculus Rift,
 which is offered for the price of $ 599. Goggles are expected to
 the first customers next month.
