PUBG PC

[adey]

Hi

My friends son wants a PC that will play PUBG. He was looking at some dell guff (ryzen 3 rx460) for £599 for the high street but i told him i could do better.

I've come up with a micro atx build based on A ryzen 5 1400 with a GTX1050TI which includes OS for £605. Is this the way to go or should i be looking at Intel?

Any builds you can come up with would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

PUBG runs like absolute poo.

a 1050ti will struggle unless everything is on ultra low and he plays at 1080p and 60hz.

a 1060 3gb will play it fine at 1080p for 60 hz, i'd pick the 6gb version for 120hz or higher.

1070 for 165hz or 2k res @ 60hz.

1080 or 1080 ti required for 2k res and 120hz minimum.

the gum runs like crap though on any system. what is he currently playing it on? as i would just upgrade that.

you ideally need minimum 12GB RAM (DDR3 or DDR4), minimum of 4 threads and a 1060 6GB or 1070

he's a consol gamer at the mo so has nothing

Thanks guys!

Going with ryzen 5 1400, GTX1060 in a micro atx build. Having never built a micro atx pc before could you recommend a cheap CPU cooler that will fit?

Thanks again.
