That is a silly comparison that I have seen a few times now.

The monitor will last you for at least five years, the Rift will be outdated within the year.

A non gaming screen with similar specs is around $160. Gamers are willing to pay $540 more just because they want a better gaming experience, that's why $599 is totally ok for a device like the Oculus.
