I purchased this PC as a bundle with my Oculus Rift and don't regret it - it's been great so far. The custom lighting effects are cool and can be customized via the start menu task bar. The PC comes with a keyboard and mouse as expected but most users who have this may want to purchase a separate wireless keyboard/mouse combo for living room or VR room setups. My biggest reason for purchasing this was the size - it's about the size of an Xbox One and it's perfect for our furniture setup and would be easy to travel with if transporting for any VR demos.
Experience the lifelike thrill of virtual reality with the Oculus Rift. The remote, OLED display and IR LED sensor help you navigate through virtual worlds, while rotational and positional tracking let you play exclusive games like Lucky's Tale. The clear, high resolution on the Oculus Rift takes you even closer to reality.

Oculus Rift is amazing. You need an Oculus Ready/High-End Windows PC to connect it to, but even then the price is actually worth it. I quit gaming about 10 years ago and after reading a lot about Rift and Vive, I decided to take the gamble and go with a Rift and I don't regret it one bit. The comfort of the Rift is superb to the Vive, and it's going room-scale later this year with the Touch controllers (release date TBD). With Facebook backing Oculus, you know it will have a huge social aspect integrated in the future, and the games and experiences available not only are great, but are only going to get better which is mind-boggling! The packaging is really well done, and the materials chosen are light and the headset can be worn for multiple hours without any fatigue. I've done 3-4 hour game sessions already and it's been totally comfortable (although I recommend breaks for good practice). All in all you won't regret the purchase - but do some research to see if you prefer a Rift or Vive. Some say Vive is better at the moment because of room-scale tracking available now, but it's also $200 more. I think the Rift is the wiser choice for the future honestly but I can definitely say VR is here to stay - this blows Cardboard and Samsung Gear VR out of the water by FAR.
