PC Recommendation
|
due to my PC dying of old age and having FPS other issues i plan to buy a completley new PC.
my question is what is recommanded in order to be able to enjoy the full POE experience with no frame rate or memory issues. (im talking beyond minimum requirments, like whats actually tried and tested and works smoothly from your personal experience). alternativly if there is a relevent forum post allready answering this(something recent and not from years ago) please direct me to it.

Some CPUs have multi-threading bug, check on tech support forums or on reddit that your new CPU works fine with PoE.
Multi-threading bug: press F1 and watch CPU graph (red). If you have massive CPU spikes while "Engine Multithreading" in Options is enabled but none of that when Engine Multithreading disabled then your PC is affected by this bug. | |

Entirely depends on your budget, but intel+nvidia all the way.

Hardware questions are very hard to answer in general, but without knowing anything about ur budged and other details I would recommend to just research on youtube about current tech. Gamers Nexus comes to mind if u need in depth analysis of different CPUs and GPUs.
After u selected ur specific setup u could come here and ask if anybody is running this combination and if it works well in PoE. edit: Also u should state what u're doing in PoE for the most part and what resolution ur going for ect. If u want to play fully juiced maps it's a very different beast than just normal mapping. Last edited by Sadaukar on Jan 3, 2024, 6:58:15 AM

My intention is to be able to run all the game content with little to no problem on high res.
the main standart for it i think is gonna be running juiced up delirium maps. preferably high res, but can settle for medium for consistant frame rates. currently this is what i was suggested to buy" Intel core i7 14700KF 3.1Ghz 33MB cache s1700 - Tray (Processor Intel) Arctic Freezer i35 CO CPU Cooler (CPU Cooler) GIGABYTE B760M DS3H DDR4 LGA1700 (Motherboards for intel) Kingston FURY BEAST 2x8GB DDR4 2666MHz CL 16 (Memory) ASUS TUF gaming GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB GDDR6 OC Edition (VGA Cards) Corsair Force MP600 PRO PCle NVme M.2 2280 1TB SSD (Solid-State-Drives(SSD)) Antec Atom V2 V750 750W 12cm PSU (Power Supply) MSI MAG Forge 100R Mid Tower Black Case No PSU (Case) Mincrosoft Windows 11 Home ENglish 64Bit OEM (Operating Sustems) for me its literally giberish so i would appreciate if someone can give me their opinion/experience on the matter. | |

All fine except RAM. Get faster one, 2666 was slow 5 years ago.

You absolutely need 32GB RAM.
With 16 if you have opened PoE, and too many Chrome tabs or a couple apps like Spotify and Discord your PC will crash. 32 is bare minimum these days. | |
|
just to make sure, Ram is the memory part yes?
in which case i need to replace the "Kingston FURY BEAST 2x8GB DDR4 2666MHz CL 16 (Memory)"? if so do you have a specific part recommendation beyond 32GB RAM? also does 64GB RAM exist and would it be even better? | |
" since you are going big using ddr4 and 2666 of all things seems like a bad choice. For a bit more you can get DDR5 ram and motherboard compatible with the processor. just make sure the motherboard has 4 ram slots and supports 5200 frequency so you can start with 2 DDR5 ram sticks of 16gb each and later on add more rams if needed. 2 x 16GB (32GB total) should be more than enough but if you want to go all out DDR5 rams can go up to 48GB per stick but not all motherboards support those. self found league fan http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/324242/page/1 Last edited by caboom on Jan 6, 2024, 10:38:05 PM
