As the hottest game in recent times, "Eldon Ring" not only has a very high degree of topic among soul game lovers, but also has a high degree of discussion in the circles of other game lovers and non-game enthusiasts.
Along with Eldon's Ring of Law, there is also the hardcore difficulty of the Soul Game and the optimization of From Software's ancestral fans, as a game with almost full media ratings, "Airden's Ring of Law" has an initial rating of less than 60% on Steam, most of which comes from the game's fan drop frame and stuttering.
Considering that "Eldon's Ring of Law" is an action RPG known for its hardcore, the impact of the experience problems caused by stuttering and frame drops is far greater than other games, especially when the player is about to kill the boss but fails because of the sudden caton, the anger that rushes to the heart must be understood by the soul system players.
Even soul players who are accustomed to the optimization of From Software slag will be full of blood pressure, and the reaction of ordinary players who come to admire them will only be greater, so that they will flock to Steam to make bad reviews. Although many players have given bad reviews for the optimization and gameplay experience of "Eldon's Ring of Law", it does not prevent this from being a game's soul game, and many new players have been addicted to playing, and have left messages asking what configuration can be played smoothly.
In view of the needs of the majority of netizens and many readers, Xiao Lei tortured for half a day, planning to give everyone a few sets of PC configurations that can play "Eldon's Ring of Law" for readers with different budgets to choose.
Civilians play freely
In fact, the requirements for PC configuration are not high, in the official configuration list, the minimum requirements for running the game smoothly are only i5-8400 or AMD Ryzen 3 3300X level processors, 12GB of running memory and GTX 1060 3GB or RX 580 4GB level graphics card can be, from the configuration point of view can only be regarded as an entry-level game PC host.
However, many players who use similar configurations leave messages saying that although this configuration can indeed meet the basic game needs, the problem of Caton dropping frames is more common, and in some more complex and poorly optimized scenes, there will be obvious frame rate drop problems, and the overall experience is not good.
Simply put, you can play, but you may have to endure all kinds of unexpected difficulties. So let's take a look at the recommended configuration, i7-8700 or Ryzen 5 3600X-level processor, 16GB of running memory and GTX 1070 or RX VEGA 56-level graphics card, placed in five or six years ago was already a mid-range gaming PC configuration, of course, today is still a bit not enough to see.
That being the case, let's build on this and see how to upgrade the configuration to the level of "smooth play" at the lowest cost. From the price inquired by Taobao, the price of GTX 1070 is between 1700-2000 yuan (second-hand is not new), and the performance on the graphics card ladder list is benchmarked gtX 1660Ti, GTX Titan X, RTX 3050 and RX 5600 four graphics cards.
Considering the instability of second-hand graphics cards (mining, overuse, etc.), so Xiaolei does not recommend everyone to buy second-hand graphics cards, then the optional new graphics cards are only GTX 1660Ti and RTX 3050, the price of Taobao is basically the same, considering the support of new features such as DLSS, light chasing (better than nothing), RTX 3050 is naturally the first choice.
Processor, the current price of i5-8700 is about 1500 yuan, and Ryzen 5 3600X is about 1100 yuan, comprehensive consideration, 1500 price point i5-12400 is the most suitable, the overall performance, power consumption performance are excellent, and with the Windows 11 system there is an additional performance bonus.
CPU, graphics card two large pieces determined, followed by a series of products such as motherboards, solid state, memory, etc., in view of the relationship between time and article length, Xiao Lei will not explain them one by one, directly giving the current cost-effective options.
Motherboard: ASUS TUF Gaming B660M-E D4 edition
Memory: Guangwei Tiance series DDR4 3200
Solid-state drive: 5 series 1TB solid state made in Tokyo (anyway, it is all OEM products, it is better to choose a high-performance + high-quality after-sales)
Power supply: Zhenhua Copper Emperor 450W
CPU heatsink: Limin AX120 R SE
Chassis: Feel free to pick one you like
Chassis fans: You can buy separately with a budget, and you can buy a chassis with a standard fan without a budget
CPU: i5-12400
Graphics: RTX 3050
The budget of the whole set is about 6000-6500 yuan, and the CPU uses a loose chip or motherboard set, the price will be more favorable. If you already have a PC host, but want to upgrade the hardware to meet the requirements of the Eldon Ring, then you can also refer to Xiao Lei's configuration for selective purchase.
Local tycoons play the file
After talking about the civilian configuration, then the next natural is to look at the configuration of the local tycoons, compared to the civilian configuration, in the configuration of the local tycoons we can let go of ourselves. Of course, letting go of the self does not mean buying expensive, but within a reasonable price range, consider the best hardware collocation, so as to bring the best experience at a lower cost.
At present, the strongest personal PC processor is i9-12900K, but from the perspective of game experience and hardware cost, this is not a good choice, i7-12700K is a more suitable processor for gamers, can be paired with cost-effective DDR4 memory, and will not become a bottleneck in the game frame rate.
Motherboard, like high value can consider ROG STRIX Z690-A Gaming WIFI D4 version, for high overclocking performance requirements can choose MSI MPG Z690 EDGE TI WIFI D4 version, generally speaking, in Taobao to buy board U package will be a lot of discounts.
Then there is the graphics card, the price of high-end graphics card is still not low, considering the price, performance and other factors, Xiaolei recommends RTX 3080Ti or RX 6900XT. The most preferred is the RTX 3080Ti, the performance is very close to the RTX 3090, but the video memory is not enough to support the 8K game, but for most players, the 8K game itself is a pseudo-requirement.
In terms of memory, considering that the 12th generation Core platform attaches great importance to the memory main frequency, if you are not familiar with PC gameplay such as overclocking, it is generally recommended to buy a high-frequency memory stick, and then directly open XMP. Judging from the feedback of netizens, the most cost-effective choice is DDR4 3600Hz + low timing, so Zhiqi's Phantom Blade series is a good choice, in addition to the Ylenda Platinum Sheng series.
The above is the current high-end host mainly considered three major pieces, the rest of the hardware will not affect the overall performance too much, so Xiaolei will no longer elaborate one by one.
CPU：i7-12700K
Motherboard: ROG STRIX Z690-A Gaming WIFI D4 edition or MSI MPG Z690 EDGE TI WIFI D4 edition
Memory: Chiba Fantasy Light Halberd DDR4 3600 CL16 or YLR Platinum Series DDR4 3600 CL16
Radiator: Owl NH-D15 or Cool Extreme Ice God B360
Hard disk: ARMORED EXCERIA Pro SE10 1TB
Power supply: Zhenhua LEDEX ARGB 850W or Antec NE850
Chassis: you can choose your favorite style, it is recommended that the budget is more than 500 and meet the following requirements [support E-ATX motherboard installation, support 360mm water-cooled installation, support at least 7 chassis fan installation, net weight of more than 10KG]
Chassis Fan: Cool Extreme MF120 HALO (arGB support) or ARCTIC P12 PWM PST CO (no light mute
The above set of configurations can basically meet the needs of running "Eldon's Ring of Law" smoothly in 4K full picture quality, and it is also not a problem to cope with the AAA masterpieces in the next few years. The overall purchase cost will be much higher, the budget is about 11000-12000, and friends who need to upgrade the configuration to the high-end level can also refer to it.
If you still feel expensive after watching these two sets of configurations, then Xiao Lei's suggestion is not to consider the PC, directly buy the PS5 host, the current Taobao price is about 4000, with a 4K monitor, you can also get a good game experience.
I wish everyone a "comfortable" Experience of the Eldon Circle.
