So bought a rift today but... surprise.

I use my pc hdmi gpu port for my tv ( no monitor attached, its on the laptop atm for my so) . Seems my 1070 only has 1 hdmi port which the oculus needs.

Can i use the integrated graphics hdmi port on my mobo from my 4790k ( if it does have one) to output desktop on tv and plug my oculus into my gpu?

Other choice until i get a dvi to hdmi adapter is to take her monitor and use via dvi from my gpu but rather not.

Will the igpu->tv and gpu->oculus work or do they have to both be in the gpu?

Pff bob! Not cool man, not cool! Very Happy

Anyway, can someone explain how to use Steam VR games? I mean, do i have to have steam open when playing the cracked games? On a throwaway account in case i get the ban? Also are VR games even cracked? Cant seem to find much on the local torrent.
