Could an MSI GTX 780 Lightning edition run an oculus?

I was wondering that if the specs for oculus saying you need a 970 or higher, would an msi lightning 780 be able to run one?

Should be fine as a 970 and 780 are the same performance wise, but it says you need HDMI 1.3 and I'm not sure the 780 has that.

It has hdmi v1.4a

the v-ram on the 780 is probably not going to be enough since the oculus is rocking a pretty high resolution screen

The resolution isn't even that high vram probably won't be an issue but I'd love for VR to prove me wrong

I would say it's enough. 970 is recommended not necessarily the minimum so say
