Hello @SomeRandomGuy45 

 

According to VIVE, you need a minimum GTX 1060 graphics card to run the VR Headset.

The 15-Cx0056wm laptop only contains a GTX 1050ti.  It might work, but not ideally and depending on the game, you would have to set settings low and may still have some stutter. I would not recommend it.
