Another data point: I got into VR with a GTX 1070. It ran games made for VR (half life alyx, VTOL vr, skyrim vr, beat saber, pistol whip) at 120hz full resolution with minimal issues - but games not well optimized for it (ie DCS) were basically unplayable even at the lowest settings.
I have since upgraded, but even the hot shit card I bought specifically for VR sucks at running anything not specifically made for it :agony-shivering: . If I had known what I know now I would have kept the graphics card the same and just gotten a new motherboard + more RAM.
