PC Specs for the Best League of Legends Experience

With the increasing popularity of League of Legends, it’s no surprise that new players continue to flock to the game. Despite being over a decade old, LoL has had 115 million active users so far in 2021!

A game of skill and strategy, success in LoL depends on how well you know your heroes and how well you meld with your team. Still, there’s no denying that PC specs play their part. You wouldn’t want to be the last to load into a map — or worse, have your game freeze while you’re in the thick of the fight! Whether you’re a veteran League player or someone who’s just starting out, here are the best PC specs to help you get the best LoL experience possible:

GPU

Among the most important components of any gaming PC, the video card is a specialized electronic circuit responsible for rendering the graphics of our games. Without a good GPU, even the most advanced CPU will struggle to run any of today’s AAA titles.

Thankfully, LoL isn’t too demanding on a GPU, and you can run the game on just an AMD Radeon HD 5670. However, for the smoothest gameplay experience, with no lag or stuttering, you’ll want to invest in a good GPU. Anything from an Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060 should be capable of giving you a great LoL experience. In fact, GPUs like the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 upwards may even be considered excessive if you’re only playing LoL casually. If you’re considering going into competitive LoL, however, you may want to splurge on the AMD Raden RX 6900 XT.

CPU

Often called the “brain” of your PC, a good CPU is essential to being able to do pretty much anything. Between the electrical requirement properties needed and the calculations generated for its distributed resistance, today’s CPUs are made of meticulously designed circuit boards. This complexity has allowed manufacturers to make higher clock rates and more complex functions possible.

Most modern CPUs should be enough to do simple tasks like browsing the web or watching YouTube, but anyone who wants to game seriously will need a more powerful CPU. Mid-range CPUs like the i5 10400 and i5 11400 will be more than capable of running LoL smoothly, as the minimum requirement is just a 3 GHz processor, but if you’re looking to play on 4K resolution and maybe even stream your games, you’ll want to invest in CPUs like the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, a 3.7GHz CPU with 6 cores and 12 threads.

RAM

Your computer’s RAM is the internal memory of your CPU. It gives your applications a place to store and access data on a short-term basis. This means that the more RAM you have, the more data your CPU can store for easy access, enabling it to run tasks faster. Less RAM means your computer could struggle to run applications.

Surprisingly, LoL’s minimum system requirements only list 2 GB of RAM, making it easy to run the game on most older machines. Thankfully, most modern machines come equipped with at least 4 GB of RAM. But if you want the fastest experience, consider going up to 16 GB RAM. As with your CPU, if you’re planning to record or stream your games on 4K, it may be worth investing in 32 GB of RAM – but honestly, that will probably be too much for the average player.

SSD

A solid-state drive, or an SSD, is a long-term storage option for your PC. SSDs are considered the faster, quieter cousins of hard disk drives (HDDs), and are often a bit more expensive. However, they are more than worth the price. By allowing you to quickly boot up your PC, launch apps like LoL, and quickly load local data needed to play the game, you’ll never be the last to load into a map ever again.

You won’t need more than 500 GB if you’re only planning to play LoL, but your storage will quickly get used up if you’re planning to record your games to review or publish them later down the line.


All in all, building a PC for LoL isn’t likely to become a costly endeavor unless you’re planning to play competitively or start streaming. A mid-range PC with a good GPU should be more than enough to get you started.

Just another huge League of Legends fan and a technology geek. I've recently got my Master's degree in Computer Science, so now I finally have enough free time to play League. I've been playing the game for nine years now, and my highest rank was Master (231 LP - Season 10). I was also ranked #3 on LeBlanc in Season 10. Since I have very high knowledge about League, my goal is to help my fellow Summoners, which is the main reason why I founded LeagueFeed. LeagueFeed is a free resource website for all League of Legends fans worldwide!
