Guys, whats your PC specs to run PoE 2 smoothly (60fps) ?

Cpu - AMD Ryzen 5 7600x 6 core 4701 Mhz
Motherboard- B650M K (look how cheap this is)
Ram- 32GB DDR 5
OS Windows 11
Video Card 4090 series.
Hard Drives - Always M2.

Can play 4k anything I want and record and stream all at same time. And you might think micro boards are junk but they aren't mines is even a refurb to save a few dollars.

I did have Intel but since they lock you into a socket that only fits their New Chipset. When I purchased my I 13700k, and it was broken within 2 months because of w/e they did wrong to manufacture them or w/e. You can find out exactly which Motherboard I had and How the actual processors are garbage(the ones that were affected before the changed the manufacturing process- all done in house by them) on reddit.

So I went back to AMD because I don't pay a premium price for a product you make near impossible to RMA. That motherboard and CPU sit on my table today, less than 2 years old but with a new purchase price of easily over 800 dollars. ROT IN HELL INTEL.

60FPS is not smoothly, 120FPS is smoothly. Sadly there are no graphics options so far in POE2 for spell effects turn down, except bloom, which does literally nothing. They need to add some slider to reduce all spell effects dramatically. As fire Wizard the game becomes unplayable the moment some fire is on the ground and FPS break down.
like all modern games, unless you are playing above 1080p the game is 100% cpu bound. That is going to give you the best bang for your buck in terms of single upgrade, and im going to guess like every other game single core performance matters the most because actually using all the cores/threads is some kind of lost space magic for devs.
i7-10700k with 32GB system RAM, NVME SSD is my main system. I run everything on my Ultra Wide wQHD monitor.

1. When I had the RX 6800, I was getting 40-ish FPS in town, 60-70-ish outside towns.
2. I just "upgraded" to an RTX 3080, and I'm getting 50-60-ish FPS in town, and 80-90-ish FPS outside of towns, with most settings maxed out @wQHD resolution.

Hope it helps.
I had no real trouble playing poe 2 on a 6700k 4GHz skylake (9 years old), 16gb ddr4, ram, SATA ssd, 2070 super GPU. I think fps was around 45, however that was at almost 4k resolution. Mind you, I am only in act 1 and 2, so no maps with masses of monsters. I think the CPU was running at a pretty high % according to task manager.

I also tried running the game on a gtx 970 gpu on my new pc, ryzen 5700x 64gb ram, NVME SSD, and it also ran fine but this was a 1080p resolution test. I have since put my 2070 super into the ryzen - I now need to have vsync adaptive on, or I get noises (coil whine?) from my gpu, but thats fine as my monitor is 60 hz.

In each case latest gpu drivers were installed.
1080p <3
60-144 fps
30-60 while doing boom boom juicy maps, mega breaches or big group play.

Graphics maxed out.

- 2700x
- 2080 ti
- 32 gb ram (3200 mhz)

ez pz :)
