I'm getting a new computer to run League of Legends. Would one of these be able to run it fast and smooth? 1. Computer #1 2. Computer #2 3. Computer #3
What would they all run? (FPS wise) High: Medium: Low:
disregardable1 votesI'd expect between 30-40 FPS on medium-low settings on all of them.
UncensoredAngel1 votesthat sucks
TurtleTheFast1 votes30-40! i run at 10-20
Hoi Im Temmo1 votesComputer 1: No. The processor is weak, and the on board graphics will give you a really hard time. Computer 2: Better processor, but the graphics are still gonna kill you. Computer 3: Same as above.
On one hand, I can see you want to keep cost down (trust me, i feel you) - but its gonna be hard to get a computer that preforms well for under $500.

One of these would likely suit your needs better, but ask around first.
OhBoyItsaMegaman1 votesAgreed. If you want to be able to run LoL without slowdown during teamfights, you want a computer that has a dedicated graphics card rather than onboard. This list shows you which laptop graphics cards fall into which tier. You can get away with one of the better "Low-Midrange" cards (especially if playing in a lower resolution like 1366x768), but "Mid-range" would make it a breeze.

I have an Acer Aspire similar to this. It doesn't work well in the long run for LoL.

you build it yourself.

Also, if you really want everything it does to be near instantaneous, get an SSD, not an HDD. More expensive, more than worth it.
Poisedstrike1 votesYou're telling someone who just gave 3 wholesale laptops as options to just jump right into building their own? There are stepping stones needed to reach that stage. First, just anything you see in Walmart, Costco, etc., will do. When the user gets tired of that, then it's on to Cyberpower, IBuypower, OriginPC and Digital Storm. This is so they can see first hand the parts going into their pc while navigating through the configurators. After they've experienced the terrible customer support of prebuilt gaming pc companies, and only then, will they have the motivation and drive to dedicate some hours into researching how to build one themselves.
I'm currently on the 2nd stage as my Cyberpower PC has been going strong for 2 and a half years now with no kinks whatsoever. Therefore, personally, I'll never build one myself. Don't fix what ain't broke.

Alienware is better than all of those if you're not gonna put it together yourself.
