Computer for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

PUBG Game

The game exploded in 2017. Its release felt like a comet crashing to Earth. In the very first month, it broke Steam records for the number of concurrent players.

Nearly three million people were on PUBG servers by the end of December 2017, just after its launch. For comparison, Dota 2’s all-time peak over 7+ years was 1,291,328 players. CS:GO's maximum was 850,485. These are the two most popular games on Steam. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds surpassed both by nearly three times.

Why is it so popular?

The game belongs to the Battle Royale genre. It first appeared in 2013 as a Minecraft mod. The idea is simple: a hundred players land on a large map. Only one will survive. You can also play in teams.

Other games with this mode often lack dynamics. The maps are large, and the player count quickly drops. Gameplay becomes a long search marathon. The developers of PUBG solved this problem by:

  • The map constantly shrinks toward the center.
  • Random areas are bombarded.
  • A plane drops supply crates.

You can’t stay in one place for long. You constantly need to search for weapons, armor, and ammo. Players are always encouraged to stay visible. The key is balancing between hiding in the shadows and stepping into the light.


What’s the combat like?

Each match lasts about 20–30 minutes. There are many ways to survive, but weapons and armor are essential no matter what. You’ll also need attachments like sniper scopes of various magnifications, suppressors, laser sights, and plenty of other fun gadgets. Searching and looting takes up about 30% of your time.

The maps are huge, with up to 100 players per match. So another 30% of the time is spent looking for enemies — or running from them.

The only way to survive is to be faster than your opponents. There’s a bit of randomness, and other factors like the gear you find. But if you’re not the “fastest hand in the Wild West,” it’s often better to wait in ambush — that takes another 30% of the match.

That leaves about 10% of the game for actual shooting, killing, and explosions. So calling PUBG a traditional shooter would be misleading. The whole idea of the game is about survival — it’s a classic Battle Royale at its finest.


PUBG System Requirements

Frame rate determines how smooth the image looks. PUBG is a relatively modern game with impressive visuals, which means it requires a powerful graphics card. The physics are handled by the CPU, so it's equally important. The minimum requirement lists an Intel Core i5-4430 — a decent processor, so you won’t be able to play on a calculator.

Another feature of games built on Unreal Engine 4 is their high demand for RAM. Even on minimum graphics settings, you’ll need at least 8 GB of memory.

Minimum
Operating System Windows 7/8.1/10
Processor Intel Core i5-4430
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 2GB / AMD Radeon R7 370 2GB, with DX 11 support
RAM 8 GB
Disk Space 30 GB

This configuration is suitable for playing in Full HD on minimum settings.

Recommended
Operating System Windows 7/8.1/10
Processor Intel Core i5-6600K
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB / AMD Radeon RX 580 4GB, with DX 11 support
RAM 16 GB
Disk Space 30 GB

With this setup, you can play in QHD at medium-high settings or in FHD on ultra settings with good FPS.

Ultra System Requirements for PUBG in 4K
Operating System Windows 10/11
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5080
RAM 32 GB
Disk Space 30 GB on SSD

This configuration is for gamers who don’t settle for compromise.


What Kind of PC Do You Need for PUBG?

This game isn’t a hardcore esports title. A lot depends on randomness. In fact, the developers don't even try to level the playing field — one player might start with a sniper rifle, another with a frying pan.

But you can reduce the randomness with experience and a fast computer. The key is stable frame rates. Unlike competitive esports games, 60 FPS is enough here.

How to Choose a Graphics Card for PUBG?

Your frame rate is limited by your monitor. Basic monitors support 60 Hz (frames per second), while gaming monitors can go up to 240 Hz. To achieve the target FPS, you need to choose a graphics card that matches your monitor's resolution. The higher the screen resolution, the more load on the GPU. The table below shows test results for NVIDIA GeForce 10XX cards at max graphics settings.

For comfortable gameplay, you need at least 30 FPS — that’s the bare minimum for stable performance. The game isn’t well optimized for high-resolution monitors, so you’ll need a top-tier card for smooth survival.

How Much VRAM Do You Need?

The game will use as much video memory as available. On weaker cards, textures will load more slowly, which can reduce FPS in certain situations, especially in cities. However, average performance will remain about the same.

  • Ultra UHD – 7 GB
  • Ultra QHD – 6 GB
  • Ultra FHD – 5.7 GB
  • Medium FHD – 2.5 GB
Frames per Second 1920x1080 (Full HD) 3840x2160
(Ultra HD)
GTX 1080 Ti 80 46
GTX 1080 75 35
GTX 1070 70 30
GTX 1060 6 GB (medium–high settings) 59 30 (on low settings)
GTX 1050 Ti 40 Unplayable
GTX 1050 35 Unplayable

How to Choose a Processor for PUBG?

The game is fairly demanding on the CPU. A mid-range system should be built around an Intel Core i5-8400. Older CPUs like Intel Pentium, even from the latest generations, won’t handle it well. For recording and streaming, the Intel Core i7-8700K is a better option.

How Much RAM Do You Need?

This is the amount of memory used by PUBG along with the operating system and a video recording program running in the background. For smooth PC performance, at least 16 GB of RAM is recommended.

  • Ultra UHD – 9 GB
  • Ultra QHD – 8.5 GB
  • Ultra FHD – 8 GB
  • Medium FHD – 6 GB

Is It Worth Using an SSD for PUBG?

The difference between a regular HDD and an SSD is in read/write speeds. On an SSD, the game will load faster. It only takes up around 30 GB of space, so installing it on an SSD is a good idea. PUBG maps are large and constantly loading textures and objects as you move. Faster storage won’t boost FPS, but it will make the experience smoother.

The best solution is to install both an HDD and an SSD. Use the HDD for storing large files, like recorded streams. Use the SSD for the system and games — this setup will speed up your PC significantly.


How to Build a Gaming PC Yourself?

The first step is selecting the right components. Start with the CPU and GPU. The CPU determines the rest of your setup, and the GPU defines the system’s power and total cost. Allocate 40–50% of your budget to the graphics card — it’s the most important part of a gaming PC.

The motherboard should meet your specific needs. If you want to run two graphics cards in SLI, make sure there’s enough space. If you plan to overclock your CPU, choose a board that can handle the power and won’t burn out.

The power supply should be calculated based on the total consumption of all components plus 30–40% headroom. For example, if your system uses 350W, you’ll need a 500W power supply.

Why Is It Difficult to Build a PC Yourself?

Cooling is often a weak point in DIY PCs. It’s important to maintain balance. You can create strong airflow with multiple fans, but your PC may end up sounding like a jet engine. On the other hand, if you cram cables inside and skip installing case fans, you risk overheating and damaging your components.

As for the aesthetics, it’s difficult to find matching components and create a unified look at home. It’s especially challenging to build a neat, custom water cooling system. But such a system looks impressive, offers customizable lighting, runs quietly, and provides excellent heat dissipation.
