Purpose

This build was for an upgrade for a pre-built to a case that could accommodate a GPU and for Krystal at home. The CPU, motherboard, and RAM were taken from the pre-built. The goal was to be able to run basic VR games, mainly Beat Saber. The build is noticeably bottle-necked for VR by the old CPU. Additionally, Krystal is trying record with OBS and it is affecting frame rates considerably. The next upgrade will definitely be the CPU.
