If you can afford that go for it. That would run the game at max with ease and most games to be honest

I use a Asus ROG Strix 1080ti with a i5-9600k and can run the game 1440p at ultra at between 80-100 fps.

I've got 3 years old computer i7-8700K 3,7GHz, GTX 1080, 16GB RAM and I'm running it on max settings and 1440p.

My zoo is fairly big with over 600 animals, 7000 guests and 200 staff so while on play mode the fps is understandably low around 15-20. On pause its closer to 30. Low figures sure but it's an sim game so the low fps doesn't matter that much.

But what I've read even the beefiest computers struggle when the zoo is loaded with animals and guests so..

So to answer your question, yes it prolly can. Don't know about 4k though.

how many frames you think i could avg? I know building a medium to big zoo makes the fps fall on my current pc.

I just cap mine at 60 fps to keep the temps down. Because when your zoo is big it can get hot.

What resolution are you wanting to run at?

1940x1080 or higher depends.

At 1080p that is a way overpowered PC. You will be getting over 200 fps I imagine. Which there is no benefit of in this game.

Very nice system, but I'd suggest increasing the ram to 32 gig for better performance.

I recently got an RTX 3080 to go with my AMD 3900x.
Don't expect high fps with this game, I get less than 20 fps in a large zoo with 530 or so animals, at 4k ultra, dropping the resolution and quality does nothing to improve it.
If you like games such as Control, Death Stranding, Horizon Zero Dawn and other new DX12 titles you won't be disappointed, just don't expect anything great from PZ
Also 1TB storage may not be enough if you have a lot of games.

PZ is more CPU and RAM dependent than GPU. I barely use 70% of my RTX 2060 at 1080P Ultra settings.

The rig you are stating will be fine for 4k. I've got a much weaker 1080 (non-Ti) coupled with an ancient Xeon 1240v2 cpu and 16 gigs of DDR1333 Ram and still get 55-60fps for medium zoos in 4k.

If it works well for those games it should work well for WH2 total war? Sounds good

Expecially for 1500 plus tax. I just don't know why this is cheaper than 1080 and rtz 2080 on store

Difficult to say when they don't quote any details for the make of motherboard, ram, SSD, PSU and cooler
this is taken from one of the reviews
Overall Review: - It's a good deal for the price and runs the games that I want to play at 1440p max settings quite well, and was much more convenient than waiting for 3070 stock.
- the 3000 mhz RAM isn't supported by the included motherboard.
- If you are able to build your own and comfortable waiting for GPU stock, then do that. I wasn't, and this is a great deal if you're not.
States that the RAM wasn't supported
