I've got an i5-7400, GTX 1060, with 8gb RAM running Windows 10. It works better through V.Desktop. Crashes a lot w/ SteamVR when I'm going to different destinations. My pc works fine for things like No Man's SKy- but it isn't obviously like my true love here- Low-FI.
I'm having the same problem everyone has with the cable- it sees a USB 3 as a USB 2.
I will keep at it though. Love this world.
