I'm playing on PS4. But the bluescreen crashes, fps drops in maps and desynch with most movement skills makes it a shitty experience. Hardcore community is also non-existant (almost 2 months in league and havent seen a single wind ripper or surrender for sale) and noone selling hc currency. Dear diary...

My PC blew up so have to buy a new one. Was thinking of buying a cheap refurbished pc from a trusted company. What minimum specs should I be looking at? I want to be able to play any build without fps drops. Unfortunately I'm on a budget so looking for cheapest option. I already put my ps4 up for sale.

8 ram
1050 ti or better card
you will still get drops and have to play on lower settings but this is an ok starting point
so look up from there

for real though don't even get a budget pc
get something good when it is on sale and you wont regret it
become the pc master race gamer you were always meant to be.

but that is how simple it is to build your own pc, so you should NEVER buy one from a "trusted" company.
no matter what there are some builds that will drop your fps, as several of them will even cause the servers to crash.

Get at least 8gb of ram, SSD, graphics card of choice (running an ancient 750 with no problems just looks a bit meh), SSD, SSD. FFS get a SSD. I cannot stress this enough, speaking as someone who just least league upgraded from HDD to SSD, biggest improvement ever.
