Angelcake Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 i made a post about this back then and never went through,but now since overwatch is now even laggier on my laptop i would like to build a computer that can run it better.Now that doesnt mean i have exactly 1000 to spend on it(thanks to college) but im open to it if it goes over. in a nutshell build the cheapest pc to run overwatch decently. forgive my english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeMcCoolName Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 Something like this will run overwatch at 1080p ultra settings @ 80fps~. It's not the best price/performance, but it is cheap and is more than enough for Overwatch. (or go with a 1050Ti for an extra $20 and get 20%~ more performance for other more demanding games).

It would be better to just go with a 6500 and its only $100 more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be better to just go with a 6500 and its only $100 more A 5600k is nowhere near as powerful as a 6100. (a 5600k is about 10-15% slower than an 860k, which is less than half as good as a 6100 in Overwatch) A 6100 is more than capable of getting >80fps in overwatch: http://www.techspot.com/review/1180-overwatch-benchmarks/page5.html And I agree, an i5 is a good option to consider for other more demanding games, but when paired with something like a 460/1050/1050Ti, an i3 is more than adequate, and OP wants it to be as cheap as possible.

AwesomeMcCoolName Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 I would look into this,is there anything missing?Not the brightest in computer tech. Windows, monitor, speakers, keyboard, mice, headphones, etc... But component-wise, no, that's everything you'd need. Things to consider would be: a nicer looking case (if you care at all), a better GPU/CPU if you want to account for more demanding AAA titles, and a better PSU (if you're considering a better GPU).

I got a 780 to play dota for the off chance I might actually play another game (which, let's be realistic, isn't gonna happen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a 780 to play dota for the off chance I might actually play another game (which, let's be realistic, isn't gonna happen). I got a 390 telling myself I needed it. My most played games are Fallout NV and CSGO. We all fall into the trap man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
