Path of Exile 2

PC requirements ?
I'm afraid that my pc wont be able to handle such graphics and workload. Is there any idea if I may be able to have a little bit more in depth control in the games options ? (a bit more than poe 1 )

How does the current POE1 run for you? If it runs well, you should be able to run POE2 ok.
If not, immediately order a GPU, after checking that your PSU can handle things :D

You mean on endgame maps? I have that too, on a 4090. No PC can handle POE1 endgame :D

If you can play POE 1 smoothly probably you can play POE 2 too. It's the same engine.

Thanks . PSU never heard about psu requirements. I have 400w. I have a Rx Radeon 580 and a ryzen 5 2600. Still happens but more often when I have opened my browser tabs.

A new graphics card likely uses more power, thus your PSU would probably not be up to par.
Just a sidenote, because i have 0 clue abourt how techy you are.

A bit dated. And RAM memory?

I've heard about psu requirements when the case has to handle multiple graphic cards. When I made my pc, I found out that a 400 is more than enough :S .

Of course you spec the PSU depending on what you put in your PC case.
My GPU needs close to 400W alone. So PSU's certainly are a thing to check when adding stuff to an older PC.

Sadly your PC is too old mate, You won't get a very nice experience with a Rx580 and such an old mid class CPU. Upgrading any of it would also not really make sense. A new GPU would be hindered by the CPU and vice versa.

Thank mate! I've checked it out and you're right. A ryzen 7 can outperform by +50% the one I currently use hehehe

This is the spec that can still boot the game. There will be no enjoyment with these specs.
