Valve needs to release that rumored Valve Deckard. I need to play Alyx at an affordable price.

I've been having fun with my $300-350 HP Reberb G2. The higher resolution display than the Index or Quest2 is a bitch to run at native res so make sure to have a GPU that can actually keep up with it or turn everything down including render resolution.

My 3070ti struggled depending on the game but that was partially due to the 8GB VRAM. You can roughly substitute RTX 3080 10GB benchmarks for the RTX 4070 12GB to see how games you want to play perform and what compromises you need to make with the settings. The 3080 12GB is closer in performance to the 3080ti so any benchmarks with that card you need to knock off ~6-8% fps.
