In the first bundle, users will get an HTC Vive system and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 Founders Edition graphics card for $999. HTC said the bundle saves gamers $200 off the suggested retail price for each individual product and will only be available until April 24. The bundle also can be financed for $49 per month for 24 months, jacking the price back up.

The second bundle includes an HTC Vive system and a VR-ready gaming laptop from MSI. Internally, the MSI GS73VR Stealth Pro laptop sports specifications that’ll adequately power most VR titles. The laptop is anchored around a 17.3-inch 1920 x 1080 pixel display and features Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 graphics, 16GB of RAM and an Intel Core i7-6700HQ processor.
