PC Setups

I'm looking to build a gaming pc since my current laptop is really letting me down when it comes to some games, League included (I do like 12 frames on minimum settings, thanks for asking).

That said, there are other games that I would like to play besides League, so I'll be looking at those too with this question. However, the lack of specs requirements on League's part makes it a little more difficult.

So, my question is, what setups do you have that are capable of playing League smoothly with high-or-maxed graphics? I'm looking for approx. 50-60 frames during teamfights (more is fine, I'll be capping it at that anyways.)

Your part is simple, if it's a premade computer (e.g. Ironside, Alienware, so on) the name and model would suffice. If it's a self-built pc, then I'm mostly interested in the Motherboard, graphics card, processor, RAM, and HDD/SSD (just for ballpark numbers, the storage space isn't as important).

if you don't want to read all that, then here you go

#TL;DR post your pc specs below if it's capable of high-or-maxed graphics on League without going below 50 fps.

Edit for clarity: I'm not asking you to build me a computer, I'm just saying to post your specs below if it's capable of what I asked. I intend to expand beyond my League requirements, and am only using League as a baseline/minimum. If your computer can do 50 fps, great, post it below.

I used to play on an old Inspiron with a GTX 750 thrown in there.. Never went below 60 FPS on max settings. League is not a graphics-intensive game. The specs for that PC, if you're wondering:

i3 2120 GTX 750 6 GB DDR3 (don't remember the frequency)

My current rig is now:

Ryzen 5 1600 still the GTX 750 16 GB DDR4 @3000MHz (Corsair Vengeance LPX)

Now I can run Overwolf, ReplayHUD, LoLWiz, Chrome, Spotify, Ryzen Master, Razer Synapse, and Logitech Gaming Software without CPU or RAM load going over 40% _(which is new for me, since ReplayHUD alone would take the 2120 to 100%) _

Got a price range? 50fps in league is pretty easy, but might be able to go above and beyond if the budget allows it.

EDIT: And let us know if the price range is just for parts, or also including things like the OS and monitor.

You could literally dig a computer out of the dumpster and get 60 fps nowadays.

400 bucks gets you a computer that can play league at 4k. You really shouldn't base your requirements around running this game.

If you are going to build your own use logical to find your baseline and

my 3 year old gtx970 runs league at max at around 250 FPS
