If I want an oculus rift just to watch videos, what does it take

If all you're gonna do is watch videos then just get one of those cheap ones that you can slap your mobile phone into. Oculus is too expensive and difficult to setup for what you're trying to do.

Don't buy any VR device right now. Generation 2 might be launching this year for both Vive and Rift. If you really want a display attached to your face that badly simply buy on of those 30 plastic headsets in which you can put your phone in. There are certain apps which allow for watching videos with those things.

No. The very question shows that you don't fully understand what the rift does even when watching videos or the power needed.

Not for me. Business decision that I do not care about at all.

The screens in the rift are sgit for video. The end. Wait for another headset or dont bother.

Get a Pimax. It's got a 4k display which is great for watching videos but not very good for games which you won't care about. Plus it's cheaper than an Oculus.

>to watch videos
Why don't you save your money and just continue using the screen you just posted with?

If your goal is to watch movies, then perhaps you should buy a used tv for $50.
