Dem PC Builds

[Highwayman667]

Hello beautiful kindred, I started this topic (if it's even in the right place) so we could discuss and advise each other on the rigs we're going to use to play Bloodlines 2. I am currently not prepared to play Bloodlines 2, I'm playing on a reliable AMD bucket that does well with Dragon Age: Origins, at most, if the steam starts rolling. So far however, I had this little rig planned for both Bloodlines 2 and Cyberpunk 2077:

ü  Ryzen 5 2400G
ü    ASRock B450 Pro4
ü    Crucial DDR4 3200 8GB (X2)
ü    Asus GTX 1660 6GB
ü    Corsair CX550
ü    Kingston 480GB SSD

I'm missing a few pieces but so far this is what I got. What do you guys think and what setups do you got to play proper BL2 ?

I'm assuming at 1080P? You should still be able to enjoy the game with your rig, just with some settings turned down. Some of us old Redemption players even experienced that in 2000 lol. When I upgraded to a 256mb gpu, that game looked sick!


Some features like ray tracing might need a gpu upgrade, if it actually turns out to be a good implementation. No guarantee it would even be worth a pricey upgrade until you see it and feel you HAVE to have it. You could pop a new 3600x in your current mobo with a bios upgrade and you'd see a decent performance jump, if you're not happy with the game at launch. I wouldn't normally recommend buying a used cpu, but Ryzen chips don't run hot and require low power, so degradation shouldn't be as much of an issue. If you find a good deal on a used 3700x in several months down the road from a good seller, and you know no pins are bent, it would be even better. Your rig isn't really that far off from being pretty solid for a while imo.


I'm using:


Ryzen 3700x @4.2ghz on all cores
Asrock x370 Taichi mobo
240mm clc
32gb ram
2tb Intel m.2 ssd
RTX 2080ti
Acer Predator x34 1440p 120hz monitor

Nah, I just like having my 14 Chrome tabs open while gaming

I got 32 GB of RAM as well, though I didn't realize how overkill it was. In retrospect, I wish I'd gone overkill with my CPU or my video card. My AMD FX 8350 and GeForce 970 are kinda showing their age. I suspect Cyberpunk 2077 is going to curbstomp my computer...

I too have 32 gigs of ram, with GTX 1060, a 488 gb SSD drive, and a 931 gb HDD.  I won't be buying the game but to stay on topic I posted my specs.  I hardly buy current gen games, but when I do my PC can usually run them on max settings.  Been awhile since I bought a current gen game though.  I can play Final Fantasy XV Windows Edition on max settings.
