Hello @Jadenmmmmmm and thanks for posting on the Microcenter Community Forum. For VR you'll need at the minimum 4gb of RAM, better to have 8gb of RAM and a GTX 1060 gpu. Unfortunately we don't carry any system that meets the VR minimum for $500. We have a HP omen that will meet the VR minimum for $799.99 (Sku# 115683). You may be able to build your own PC with an I3-10100 CPU, Asrock H410M motherboard, DDR4-2666 8gb stick, a 512gb sSD sata drive, Rosewell FBM-x tower, gtx 1050 GPU, and a Powerspec 650 watt 80 plus Power supply; this should get you at maybe $20-$30 over $500 ($530). The operating system (Windows 10) cost will get you for $119.99. MC can build it for $149.99 for if you don't build it yourself.
For a decent VR system, you'll need about $800-$900 (pre-built or custom build).

Hello @Lookee. Welcome to the community!
If you're looking to play a game like Arma 3, you'll need a GPU. Typically, adding mods to a game with increase the demand on a systems performance.
With a budget of $1500, I'd recommend this build: https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx?load=96b96b95-04a0-449a-8cc0-7473d6725df0
It would offer you solid performance in Arma 3 and you'd be able to have a GPU while still staying within budget.
Hope this helps.
