And this setup comes cheap if u know where to get it.

What modern hardware would you choose?  (Feb 19, 2020 03:28 PM)webdev77 Wrote: What CPU/GPU combo would you recommend for the popular esports titles to run >144fps?

On a low budget, I would recommend a 1070 and at least an i5 6th gen minimum. as a recommendation, I would go with more modern hardware but I must admit I am a little basis to Intel and not AMD. Intel side: CPU - i7 7700k GPU - GTX 1070ti/1080/1660ti AMD side: CPU - Ryzen 7 2700x GPU - GTX GTX 1070ti/1080/1660ti ![[Image: support-brown.png]](https://hackforums.net/images/hfnews/support-brown.png)
Well in my country it is all about budget. Since when u launch a game the most work is done by the GPU i would YES install an old XEON (6 cores - 12 threads) and give the rest of the budget to purchase a better GPU. It is done and tested and if u choose wisely u will be suprised of the results. On the other hand if the budget allows me i would build with the latest i7 or i9 and at least 1080 GPU in order to make that pc compatible with games that will launch after 3 or 4 years. But we are talking about totally different budgets! And i am no fan of AMD either.
A lot of those titles that webdev listed are fairly CPU intensive though... You're not hitting 144+ fps in anything but Notepad with that Xeon.
Since you're all about the budget, and assuming you want the best "bang for the buck" as it were, you would know that Intel is absolutely NOT the best bang for the buck for pretty much anything since 2017. You'd have a far better experience with something like a 6 core 12 threaded Ryzen 5 3600 and an RX 580 than you would with a Xeon from 10 years ago and a last generation GPU. 3600 would wipe the floor with your Xeon. ![[Image: aQsahpl.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/xsITFh8.png)

Unless you are running a server a Xeon isnt even worth thinking about unless you cant find or get a processor that is made for daily takes and gaming... 😭😭😭😭

They do make a good budget used gaming computer. Although I would not recommend it unless one is on a very tight budget (Feb 27, 2020 10:59 AM)You Just Got Sarged Wrote: Older used Xeon systems cost far less than Intel I series counterparts with almost no difference other than being locked.
