overwatch GPU

[KagoKajino]

Hello.

I am making a gaming computer and one of my first games is going to be Overwatch.

I was wondering of these parts would work for the game:

i3-2100 @3.1 Ghz dual core

15.5 GB 1333 ram (.5 paged for onboard VGA memory)

and a PowerColor Radeon R9 380 4GB w/ core clock 980 Mhz

That should be pretty good, I run an R9 290 and I get 100 FPS+ on highest settings.

You are going for rather low end CPU with higher end GPU and 16gigs of RAM. Why not save bit on RAM and get i5? Even if you will be playing Overwatch, quad core will be much better in general gaming.

I have the same GPU as you (MSI R9 280), and I can run the game at max settings at a constant 60fps 1080p.

The thing is that I have a 4690k, which is quite a bit better than that i3.

I guess you'll have to test it out, don't know if the game is CPU dependent. If it isn't, you're good.

this build is just a barebones my dad gave me, the gpu though is a future idea that will be happening this summer.
