omg new pc sort of,can it run POE well?

hey exiles!

first i wanted to say i used to have a game pc many years ago it was a i7 4770, and 760 i believe it was but the system fried...
i live alone and have it pretty rough so i was not be able to ever buy another pc due to money reasons,so what i did was i saved up for a while and got a xbox one x since its a lot cheaper then a full on game pc..
well path of exiles is not running so great on the one x lots of crashing..
so my brother contacted me today and brought me his old pc tower that i can have!!!
its about almost 2 years old but thats ok right pc can last a long time if you keep it clean???
specs are as followed... oh and i was wondering how well can it run it?
it doesnt have to be on max settings it can be medium too i dont care...

Amd Ryzen 5 1500x 3.5ghz stock
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti either 4gb or 6gb dont remember lol
8gb ddr4 ram
oh and i got a ssd btw that im going to use just for the game

if a pc is already 2 years old but is clean inside the case completely does it still have a long life left? ;p

I have 1600x ryzen, 16gb flarex 3200mhz, with 1070 msi card and i had zero problems running POE.

your "new" pc lasts probably maaany years.
stop flexing! yes you can run poe on max settings
im sitting here fine with intel pentum 2.1 ghz, 4gb ram and run poe fine
better give it back, it probably explodes!

That is like the biggest upgrade of them all!!!!
Sometimes you can take the game out of the garage but you can't take the garage out of the game.

My gaming pc is almost 5 years old now, never had a problem since.

I7 4790K with radeon R290
Maybe more RAM for Christmas.
I don't think that your pc would be the problem when servers are still a piece of shit xd
Your computer will (should, anyhow) run the game no problem.

But don't expect great framerates. Even state-of-the-art systems don't run the gane with great framerates. I don't believe they ever have.

Don't take it personally. It's an optimization issue. Enjoy PoE as a low-framerate game or enjoy a different game. Those are really your only two realistic choices.
