PC for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

The beginning of the PUBG era

The game was a hit in 2017. The release can be compared to the fall of a comet. In its first month, it broke Steam records for the number of users playing simultaneously.

At the end of December 2017, when it was released, there were almost three million people on the PUBG servers. For comparison, the online record in Dota 2 for 7+ years of existence is 1 people. A maximum of 291 people played CS: GO simultaneously. These are the two most played games on Steam. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds made it almost three times faster.

Where does this popularity come from?

This game is made in the "Battle Royale" or Battle Royale genre. It appeared in 2013 as a mod for Minecraft. The bottom line is that a hundred people end up on a big map. Only one will remain. You can also fight in teams of several people.

Other games with this mode lack dynamics. The maps are big, but there are fewer and fewer people left. The game turns into a search marathon. This is how the PUBG developers solved this problem:

The map keeps narrowing towards the center.
Bombing is done at random locations.
The plane is dropping supplies.

You can't stand in one place for long. You have to constantly search for weapons, armor and ammo. Players are constantly motivated to be visible. The main thing is to maintain a balance between sitting in a dark corner and going out into the light.

What's in the fight?

One match lasts 20-30 minutes. There are many ways to survive. But weapons and armor will be just as useful. We also need body kits like snipers with different magnifications, silencers, laser pointers and many other fun things. Collecting and searching for them takes about 30% of the time.

The maps are very large, 100 people can be deployed on the field. So you spend another 30% of your time looking for opponents or running away from them.

The only way to survive is to be faster than your opponents. There is randomness and many other factors, such as what kind of weapons you find. But if the player is not the "fastest combination of the wild west", it is better to wait for the enemies in reserve, which takes another 30% of the game time.

The remaining 10% is spent on entertainment such as shooting, murder and explosions. Therefore, it is categorically impossible to call PUBG klasicby the shooter. The whole concept of the game is about survival, it is about klasica Battle Royal at its best.

PUBG system requirements

The frame rate determines the smoothness of the image. This game is relatively new and has beautiful graphics. You need a powerful graphics card to reproduce it. Physics is handled by the processor, so you can't forget about it either. Minimum requirements are Intel Core i5-4430. This is a strong enough stone that the calculator won't work.

Another distinguishing feature of games on Unreal Engine 4 are memory requirements. Even for minimum graphics settings you need 8 GB.

Minimum system requirements

This configuration will be good for FHD playback with minimal settings.

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10
Processor: Intel Core i5-4430
RAM: 8 GB
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2 GB / AMD Radeon R7 370 2 GB, with DX 11 support
Disk space: 30 GB

Recommended system requirements

With this configuration you can play in QHD on medium high or FHD on ultra with good FPS.

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, 8.1, 10 64-bit
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600K
RAM: 16 GB
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3 GB / AMD Radeon RX 580 4 GB, with DX 11 support
Disk space: 30 GB

Maximum system requirements

Such computer parameters will be able to produce 60 FPS in UHD resolution.

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, 8.1, 10 64-bit
Processor: Intel Core i7-6700
RAM: 16 GB
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080Ti
Disk space: 30 GB

What type of computer should it be for PUBG?

This game is not a serious discipline of esports. A lot of it depends on chance. In addition, the developers do not try to level all the players on the map. Someone starts with a sniper rifle and someone with a frying pan.

But the effect of randomness can be reduced, you need experience and a fast computer. The main thing is a stable frame rate. Unlike esports games, 60 is enough here.

How to choose a graphics card for PUBG?

The number of frames per second is limited by the monitor. The simplest ones give 60 hertz (frames per second), the gaming ones up to 240. If you want to get the desired FPS on the screen, the graphics card should be chosen according to the monitor and its resolution. The more pixels on the screen, the greater the load on the graphics card. The table below shows tests on different NVIDIA GeForce 10XX graphics cards. Tests were performed at maximum graphics settings.

For a comfortable game, you need at least 30 frames, which is the lowest threshold for a stable FPS. The game is not optimized for high resolution monitors; top cards are needed for comfortable survival.
How much graphics memory do you need?

This game will use more graphics memory if available. Textures are loaded gradually on weaker graphics cards. This will reduce FPS in some cases, especially when moving around town. But on average it will stay the same.

Ultra UHD - 7 GB
Ultra QHD - 6 GB
Ultra FHD - 5,7GB
Medium FHD - 2,5GB

FPS 1920x1080 (FullHD) 3840x2160
(Ultra HD)
GTX 1080 Ti 80 46
GTX 1080 75 35
GTX 1070 70 30
GTX 1060 6GB (medium - high settings) 59 30 (at minimum settings)
GTX 1050 Ti 40 Unplayable
GTX 1050 35 Unplayable

How to choose a CPU for PUBG?

The game is quite CPU intensive. An average system should be built around an Intel Core i5-8400. Oldies like Intel Pentium, even the latest generation, can't handle it. An Intel Core i7-8700K processor is more suitable for video recording and streaming.

How much RAM do you need?

The amount of memory PUBG takes up with the system and the included video recording program is indicated. For normal PC operation, a memory size of at least 16 GB is desirable.

Ultra UHD - 9 GB
Ultra QHD - 8,5 GB
Ultra FHD - 8GB
Medium FHD - 6GB

Should you buy an SSD for PUBG?

The difference between a normal HDD and an SSD is in the speed of writing and reading. The game loads faster on SSD. It takes up little space, only 30 GB, so you can also install it on an SSD. Maps are large, textures and objects are constantly loading when loading, if you speed up their loading, the FPS will not increase, but it will become more stable.

It is best to put both HDD and SSD in the computer. An ordinary hard drive can be used for long-term storage of large files, for example, to record streams. The SSD can handle games and the system just fine. This solution will speed up the system several times.

How to build a gaming computer yourself?

The first task is to choose the right components. First, you need to select a processor and graphics card. The rest of the hardware will depend on the processor, and the overall cost and performance of the system will depend on the graphics card. 40-50% of the budget should remain on the card. It is the most important thing in a gaming computer.

The motherboard is selected according to your needs. If you want to put 2 graphics cards in SLI mode, there should be enough space. To overclock your processor you need a proper motherboard that won't burn and will provide enough power.

The power source is selected based on the consumption of all computer components plus 30-40%. For example, your system is rated at 350W, so you need a 500W power supply.


Why is it difficult to build a computer yourself?

The cooling system in standalone PCs is often bad. Balance is important here. Airflow can be very powerful with a dozen fans, but then the computer hums when it works like an airplane turbine. If you somehow stretch the wires and don't get the heatsinks to break through the case, you risk burning the insides.

In terms of appearance, at home it is very difficult to choose components that are suitable for this style. It is particularly difficult to create a beautiful uniform water cooling system. It looks bright, you can choose the color of the backlight. It is very quiet and dissipates a lot of heat.
