Reduced-price $500 computer system suitable for StarCraft 2.
Hello everyone, I’m considering assembling a computer primarily for StarCraft 2 (at maximum and ultra settings) along with some other games needing minimal specifications. While I recognize that this title demands a robust central processing unit for optimal performance on the highest graphics options, I'm uncertain about the graphics card selection. My allocated budget is $500, and here’s my proposed configuration:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 2400G with a 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor
Motherboard: ASRock B450M PRO4 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury 8 GB (2 x 4 GB) DDR4-2400 RAM
Storage: ADATA Ultimate SU650 120 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage: Seagate BarraCuda 1 TB 3.5” 7200RPM Internal Hard Disk Drive
Graphics Card: MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti with 2 GB of VRAM
Power Supply: Corsair CXM 550 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Unit
Total Cost: $497.53
Due to restricted availability in my location, locating the specific parts I desire has proven challenging. This is why I opted for a blank PC case and selected a 550W power supply instead of a 450W model, anticipating future expansion needs.
What are your opinions on this build? Will it be capable of delivering smooth gameplay at 60 frames per second with StarCraft 2 set to the highest settings?
Computer component costs in the United States are generally quite affordable when compared to prices elsewhere.
As an illustration:
Ryzen 2600 = £110
B450 motherboard = £55
2 x 8GB DDR4-3000 = £75
Corsair CX550 = £25
Crucial MX500 500GB SSD = £45
AMD RX570 4GB = £130
Case = £30
Total = £550
Possible local retailers include Box.co.uk and Overclockers UK.
So, you’re saying you aren’t located in America despite stating a 500 U.S. dollar spending limit?
Regarding tennis2:
Is that indicating you aren’t residing within the United States despite providing a $500 USD spending allowance?
Indeed, my residence is outside of America. I adjusted the monetary value to offer an approximate reflection of the allocated funds.
