Oculus Ready
Certified Oculus Ready
ASUS worked with Oculus to create strict testing procedures to ensure that you get the very best VR experience. VivoPC X is created for the Oculus platform, so it works perfectly with Oculus Rift.
Preparation checklist
Every Oculus Ready system will go through a set of preliminary tests to determine software settings are configured correctly, updates are working properly, and hardware responds accordingly. Oculus ensures that a user’s out of box experience will propel them into VR effortlessly and painlessly.
Functional test coverage
Applications rated in low, medium and high intensity are rigorously tested for an average of 30 minutes, ensuring that the frame rates meet an optimal user experience. Oculus has determined that 90FPS is absolutely critical for a comfortable and immersive VR experience and each Oculus Ready system must prove its ability to maintain this 90FPS standard.
Reliability & performance test
The system hardware is put through 17 rigorous performance and reliability tests to ensure the system is fully battle-tested. This includes a 72-hour application stress test, and the repeated swapping of hardware ports to ensure connectivity and reliability.
Oculus Ready certification score
After over 100+ tests and checks each Oculus Ready system is awarded a score out of a total 10 possible points.

Stylish, space-saving design
VivoPC X has sleek, elegant lines that blend in with the modern home. Design elements like raindrop-inspired side vents and an eye-catching red strip across the chassis add style. Its compact 5L design takes up little space, so you have numerous placement options — put it under the table or beside your HDTV.
Design
The coolest of cool
VivoPC X boasts an efficient thermal design to ensure smooth and stable performance. An axial fan draws in air through side vents and circulates it through the system to cool internal components before expelling it out of exhaust vents. And for additional cooling, a specially designed heat pipe helps draw heat away from the processor.
