What is sufficient requirements for PoE?

I would like to buy new PC, not notebook (they all dies fast). And wanna play Path of Exile with full party of characters with Mjolnir discharger, Firestorm, Icecrash etc. and do not be afraid that my videocard burn. What is sufficient requirements for that?
Not sure if its possible to handle a full party w/o lagging on any Hardware. It's pretty much the coding/particle effects which are not fully optimized yet. (check the laterst announcements, there is an update)

From my personal exp. i'd say,...
Get a CPU with a high ghz value per core. Prolly overclock it a bit.
Get a Nvidia GPU. 980ti is what i wanna buy next, but maybe i'll w8 2-3 more month for the new nvidia series.
Use an SSD.
Atleast 8GB of RAM. (i usually build pcs with 2*8GB)

That's the basic setup i'd use for PoE (can run any other game aswell)
Contact support@grindinggear.com to report issues relating to the game or forum. Thanks!

Ok, ty, all I'll check what I can afford. Does anybody wanna my kidney?
For solo playing, something like G3220 + 4GB RAM + 1GB low end GPU will get you 60 FPS on near max setting pretty all the time! (minus those strong boxes lol)

For partying, not sure, mine is i5 4460 8GB RAM HD7770 and still got crappy FPS (20-30) with some bloodline effect!
16 gb is useless, ram on Video Card is not important.

Do you know something about PCs?

I would to buy something with

"dual core or quad core 3GHz CPU" or more, good new "mid range" video card, possibly an nVidia cuz seems it works better with PoE, 8 GB ram is ok.

edit: also a fast hdd / ssd

As for many game, any nvidia would do the job. Any AMD card would suck.

that's is not true, depend of the game if it's optimized or not with nVidia or ati.
Maybe poe is optimized for nVidia.

but also some "lag and spikes" are not depending of video cards, but depend of the interactions between server and client

No system in the world can handle poe's dated engine in 6p parties or coc/mjol builds or any map with ground effects even on potato settings.

For single player mode with a heavy strike build even a budget system will do it.

Yeah PoE is so unoptimized that having a good rig does not do much when it comes to naturally laggy things like overlaping graphical effects.

I have exactly the stuff you posted and i must say that i had the same results on a laptop (8 gb, 2.5ghz i3 and geforece gt 635m).
