Decided to bite the VR bullet with a cheapo, entry level priced Windows Mixed Reality Headset, specifically this one: https://www.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/model/VD.R05AP.002 for $160 (which includes the headset and 2 controllers).

Opted for this, instead of going for the more expensive Rift or Vive, as I wanted to try out the general "hardcore" VR experience (that isn't a cheapo phone headset) before I decide to really buckle down and invest in something more advanced like the Rift/Vive.

Welp, finally got this yesterday and one of the controllers arrived with a broken trigger ._. So I'm contacting the seller, to see if I can either get a replacement controller or a partial refund so I can buy another.

But it was still usable for most of the games I downloaded, so I gave it a good try and wound up playing stuff for a good 3 hours. Quite like it so far, the headset itself definitely feels cheaper than a Vive or OR, but it's a decent enough quality for the price (I paid $160 for it all). Some of the games that are more optimized for the Vive or Rift don't work too great, either because of non-responsive buttons (ie in Catch and Release, holding the grip button doesn't actually open the notebook, despite it actually gripping in game?) or because certain motions just don't work as intended at all (like throwing in Pierhead Arcade, it just glitches out and no matter which way you orient your hands it'll toss whatever object straight down). But the games that do work fine work pretty great.

Put a good chunk of that time into Beat Saber, which I have now bought since it was probably the absolutely best experience out of all of the games so far, and is probably the best VR game at all ATM. I also liked Skyrim VR as well, though there's no way in hell I would pay $60 for it. Was quite surprised, it worked much better than I thought it would. Same for DoomVFR, I don't like the movement system but it plays pretty well for what it is.

All in all, pretty worth it for $160. Don't think I'd spend the extra cash for something like an OR or Vive in the near future, but maybe I'll see about getting a better headset when "next gen VR" stuff comes out (assuming it's cheap enough )

I think the majority of your cable management could be fixed if you used more than one grommet and don't shove every cable through the same one, psu is also way overkill, could have easily gotten away with half that wattage

This is my second(ish) build, its not too hard to do a little cable management, I used pretty much every grommet, back is a total rats nest but "out of sight, out of mind"

Got the n30 arcade stick for the switch. Just ordered new sanwa buttons and simitsu joystick. Can’t wait to mix and match the buttons. It’s gonna look pretty rad.

Got a graphics tablet as a Christmas gift from a close friend on gbatemp! Always wanted one of these, now I can improve my drawing skills. Also learn how to draw hentai.
Thank you so much @DinohScene !! This is the best Christmas gift I've received in a very long time!
Cheers!

I got gray and black buttons and tried my other options. Ended up using the red buttons with black outline.
