I haven't used my oculus cv1 since they added a non-oculus account requirement. A shame, really. Computers are finally getting to a point where driving a cv1 is a pleasant experience.
Driving a CV1 hasn't been difficult since the GTX 970 came out. Getting the damn cameras and play area to work for more than one session, now that's an unpleasant experience. Trying to use a CV1 anywhere other than directing in front of your desktop monitor is an experience I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.
I had a great experience by mounting three cameras on the walls with some 3D printed holders + paint safe double sided tape.
However my 4790k struggles to keep any kind of GPU fed in most games. It's not that it couldn't, in theory, but it does. Recent doom games being a notable exception.
Also, just as graphics hardware has gotten more powerful games have become more demanding. Filling a high pixel clock with no stutters and <90 Hz 99.9% of the time isn't a task that can just be hand waved away. It isn't happening with cutting edge hardware and software today.
Not an experience I've shared. I set up my office almost 4 years ago, even with a 5 month stretch of not using my Rift at all, and I've had no issue with the setup or cameras.
