I expect those specs to be pretty normal for VR games. A 980, 16 gb RAM, and a serious processor (preferably with hyperthreading) is what I'd expect games like Star Citizen to also officially require as minimum specs.
EDIT: Keep in mind, these are minimum requirements for the consumer versions of the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. Meaning these are the requirements frontier expects in order to run the game at 90 fps at a resolution of 2160×1200.

Memory: 16 GB RAM
