Nvidia is making it easier for users to create a virtual reality-ready computer by announcing the requirements and components needed to run virtual reality programs and games.

Nvidia will certify products with a "VR-ready" badge meaning they are certified to run virtual reality programs and will perform without lagging. Nvidia has partnered with companies like Acer, Asus, Amazon, Newegg and MSI to certify components that will help users create a virtual reality computer.
