Haven’t played pc games since d2 so I’m obviously out of date on current computers ,but I got this game for Xbox loved it figured with the new season starting and console players being ignorant to these type of games..
Will this bargain pc handle this game? Didn’t really want to spend huge money as I have way to many other hobbies now days but would enjoy playing this game during the winter please help!

Not sure if you can handle it or not, but this will help you out (did this for my old computer):

Basically you can override the minimum settings and make them even lower.

I wouldn't even waste on a computer like that.

I also wouldn't play PoE on that computer if that is your computer.


8gb ram and 2.5ghz processor is like bare minimum for games in 2017

A lot of stuff nowadays is CPU based and not so much on GPU.

This game is especially rough even on ultra-low settings.

You can honestly get a gaming rig off craigslist that can run it for like $400 if you already have a keyboard and mouse and crap.
honestly probably less.

I'd just look for i3-i5 2.5ghz+ and maybe like a 950+ graphics nvidia.

Stay away from AMD trash

was playable but painful.

Fast portals, 10-30 frames, not the best but playable.

To have a decent experience with PoE you want 8GB+ RAM, GTX 750ti or better, i5-2400 or better. You can put a rig like that together for around $300-$400 if you check Ebay/Craigslist.
