reall? the specs on that game are pretty low. Never played it but from what im seeing your bottle-necking something fierce somewhere if you have to turn down settings with that build

The minimum VR specs are significantly higher than those of the main game; if you look under the VR section of their site, you'll see they call for a 970.
There is no bottle neck in the PC; it's a matter of overall bandwidth in that the GTX 980 I have just can't render all settings in ultra at 75hz. The 1080 or whatever they call the Pascal cards will probably be able to do it, when VR headsets support SLI a second 980 will probably be able to do it, but right now the only solution is to turn down the settings. A Titan might be able to do it, but I highly doubt it and I'm not willing to make a thousand dollar gamble on a same-generation card.
The HDD configuration is 1 250GB Samsung 850 for Windows, 1 250 Samsung 850 for VR games (currently houses only Elite Dangerous), and one 2TB Western Digital 7200 Enterprise Edition HDD for other games.
The case is a Fractal R5, I got it because it does not have a gaudy window on the side, fits in my desk, and can mount a 280MM radiator.
The fans are Noctua's purchased for their ability to move lots of air quietly and not for their looks. I buy internals based on performance, nothing else factors into my decision. Why is the RAM striped red and black? Because when I had to RMA one of the kits to Corsair, all they had available was a black kit, and when I originally bought the ram all Amazon had in stock was a red kit.
