Milkman Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Im going to say your CPU is good enough if running at full/correct speed. That processor is more than capable of running the vive and software. Make sure your CPU isnt over heating and being throttled? http://www.cpuid.com/ I use CPUID to see what the computer is actually running at, and then HWMonitor to see my temps. Both are downloaded for free from that site. EDIT: Also make sure your running the test on a fresh reboot and nothing is running taking up CPU usage in the background.

ExplodingXMango Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Hello Thall17, I see you have a problem with Minimum specs Given what information you have provided, I have these suggestions to resolve your problem: • Consult minimum spec requirements (Ill go ahead and post them for you) GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970, AMD Radeon R9 290 equivalent or betterCPU: Intel i5-4590, AMD FX 8350 equivalent or betterRAM: 4 GB or moreVideo Output: HDMI 1.4, DisplayPort 1.2 or newerUSB Port: 1x USB 2.0 or better portOperating System: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1 or later, Windows 10 from what I can see you meet the minimum requirement, Hopefully well be seeing you in the community! (as far as your test saying the CPU isnt ready, you may be getting a bottleneck from the GPU thus limiting how much power the CPU can push.) If these do not fix your issue, feel free to leave this topic open, I or another user will try to assist you further shortly! If I have assisted you with your issue, or resolved your problem, Please accept my response as the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
