Will this run Overwatch at an average 144 fps with settings on low-medium ?

 

Are there better parts i could be using?

Yes.

[Bananasplit_00]

id get an RX 570 over the 1050TI here, dont know how hard OW is to get to 144fps tbh

[Zando_]

I'd go for an RX570, and maybe upgrade the CPU later on.

You know you can get windows for 20 dollars a kinguin.net or other sites?

 

And do you have a 144hz monitor otherwise your 144fps isnt worth it if you have 60hz

You could search for 1TB HDDs. I think you could find some in the same price range as the 500GB one listed in your build. And check out some RX 570s.

Get windows on kinguin or don't activate it and get an rx 570,  That will get you to 144hz

ive seen a couple videos and benchmarks and apparently nvidia cards run better on overwatch + i like shadow play alot, but i will look for some 1tb HDD around same price hopefully i find one

I have huge doubts about Pentium being able to push 144 avg FPS.

Can you add $20 for the PSU in my signature?

Its about 50% better than the  1050 ti and only slightly more expensive

How does it work then? hz is a refresh rate and fps too. If your monitor refreshes 60 times per second and you have 144fps you still get 60fps right? Correct me if im wrong

You'll still get better results, just won't be as impressive.  It means you'll have better frametimes

[elpiop]

you would benefit more from upgrading the CPU rather than the GPU for overwatch

well whats a cpu thats a step up but not too expensive that the pentium g4560

Probably the cheapest. There is not a big difference

Yes, but there are more benefits to higher refresh rate.

 

More FPS -> Better frame time -> lower input lag -> feels more snappy and responsive

 

The lower the frame time the better, obviously there are diminishing returns and is hard to tell difference after a certain point but it will always be a benefit no matter how well you perceive it.

Consistency is the key. If the frame time is very low that is great but sometimes there may be some spike which may cause latency spike or visible stutter and that is not good. This happens less frequently or is usually eliminated on very high frame rates, that said, it can still occur in some scenarios.

For example, you get 60FPS, but all the 60 frames were rendered in 0.5s, in the other 0.5s the image was stuck on one frame which you will definitely notice.

If it was 60FPS consistently divided across 1s then it would be a very smooth experience, even more so if each of the rendered frames were extremely close or synced with the refresh cycle of the monitor.

The pentium has good IPC and decent clock, not much to upgrade to in this price bracket.  @wiejfowiefwf Get windows 10 from reddit or kinguin and this much better build is way under $600

ok i went with this build and ill buy windows from kinguin, thanks for the help

 

i got one more question though, does 1 stick of ram vs 2 stick of ram make any difference?

Yes, especially if you plan on pushing high frame rates

Dont get the power supply from that build, its the same quality as the one you put in your original build, not worth the extra cost.

are you sure the original one has enough wattage? pcpartpicker is telling me the build is 329W and im just scared of having a psu that cant handle it
