Time for a PC upgrade
|
SO, its time to upgrade my 7 yr old PC as it is starting to have GPU issues even with the settings turned down. The specs are as follows-
Board - Asus maximus formula V CPU - Intel i5-3570 Ivy Bridge GPU - GTX 660 TI RAM - 16gb (forget frequency) Drives - 60bg SSD(boot drive), 300gb storage(mechanical) The build I have put together will run around $600 and is follows- Board - Asus prime B450m(Ryzen 2/ AM4) CPU - Ryzen 5 2600 GPU - Power Cooler RX 570 4 gb RAM - Crucial 16gb ddr4 3000 mhz Drives - Adata SU800 128gb SSD(boot drive), WD Blue SN500 500gb M.2(mass storage) Throw in a new case and a couple of new fans So, my question is(with POE being the main game I play and maybe a little CS:GO) how capable would this system be? Im not trying to run anything crazy just want a smooth POE experience. releasetheGibon Last bumped on Jan 4, 2020, 2:41:49 AM

It will run mostly fine, depending on settings.
I currently use a Ryzen 5 1600 (stock settings) and a Radeon RX 570 4GB(overclocked to 1350 MHz), getting a mostly steady 74 FPS on 1440p. Of course it will drop some when there's a lot of screen action. As a point of reference you can go to act 4/9 town and stand on the waypoint, the water/blood there will be the most graphically taxing non-combat situation I have encountered so far in PoE. Right now the 4 GB VRAM capacity will not be an issue in Path of Exile. Other games might require more, mostly depending on texture settings. |

Thanks so much for the reply, I should have mentioned I will be gaming in 1080p.
Act 4/9 WP's give me an average of about 59/60 fps, dropping to about 48/50 as soon as I start moving. releasetheGibon
