![]() ![]() ![]() If I were to guess, the Recommended system requirements below will be able to run Legacy of the Void with no problems, the Minimum system requirements have a decent chance at running the game at low graphic settings. In case you are wondering about the compatibility with the future expansion pack, Legacy of the Void, I am not sure and will not be until Blizzard officially releases the system requirements for the game. The new, raised system requirements changes can also be applied to the latest Starcraft 2 expansion pack Heart of the Swarm. ![]() The new changes have been reflected below. That said, 144Hz is still objectively better overall, even for the slower genre that is RTS, and there will be some people that can notice the extra smoothness compared to 60Hz.EDIT: Blizzard, the makers of Starcraft II have officially raised the minimum and recommended PC and Mac system requirements on February 6th, 2014. StarCraft 2 at 60Hz (or 75Hz which are quite common nowadays) really isn't much of a difference compared to 144Hz this isn't CSGO or Warzone where every little extra frame can help. Lastly on 144Hz, just remember a high refresh rate monitor like this is far from crucial for a generally slower-paced (compared to FPS/shooters) game like SC2. However, if you wanted to technically build the best rig for 144Hz, a stronger CPU such as the mighty Ryzen 5 5600X or Intel Core i7 10700K would be the go-to in a perfect world (no matter which settings). GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT / 5600 XT or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 8GB / GTX 1650 Super 4GB / 1660 6GBįor maxed settings (ultra), you'll need a better graphics card as listed below, but you could keep the same CPU as above and be just fine. Your system will run smoother and last longer without needing to upgrade.īest Specs for 1080p 144FPS (Any Settings)ĬPU: Intel Core i5 12400 / 12600K or AMD Ry/ 5600X Plop in some cheap 8GB of RAM and you're good to go, though keep in mind that while you can get away with 8GB it's better these days to opt for 16GB if you can afford it. That means no graphics card purchase is required. To achieve this on medium settings (or thereabouts), the cheapest modern-day parts that'll get the job done is the relatively affordable AMD Ryzen 3 3200G, which a CPU that comes with built-in integrated graphics. If you're gaming on a 1080p 60Hz display, your target should be a consistent 60FPS if you want the smoothest, hiccup-free experience to enjoy the game to its max (and to play at your best). Recommended StarCraft 2 PC Builds for 1080p 60Hz At higher resolutions like 1440p and 4K, you will need to pay at least a little attention to your specs though if you want god-mod performance (but still, it won't be that demanding). Even if you want to run it at a consistently flawless 60FPS or 144FPS (depending on your monitor). As you can probably imagine, since StarCraft 2 is starting to really show its age (at least on paper it still looks great IMO) the hardware requirements aren't going to be that high. If you're buying or building a PC and wanting to ensure that your parts will get good performance in StarCraft 2, in this short and sweet guide updated for the modern age I'll point out which specs will get the job done for the least amount of money.

At one point in time, StarCraft 2 was actually the biggest eSport on the planet, with competitive tournaments paying out millions of dollars in prize money.
