Finding the perfect gaming PC for League of Legends isn't as expensive as you might think. Especially when you consider the official system requirements for the game. So, let's figure out just how much money you'll have to fork over when wanting a new gaming PC that can run League of Legends perfectly. 

We looked at prices on multiple websites to find the perfect PC build that can still run League of Legends to perfection. We also checked out some more expensive builds as well, in case you want to play something more demanding like Elden Ring or even Cyberpunk 2077

The minimal PC For LoL

  • Processor: Intel Core i3-530; Preis: ca 15 Euro 
  • Graphic Card: GeForce 9600GT; Preis: ca 30 Euro
  • RAM: 2 GByte; Preis: ca 15 Euro 
  • Memory: 16 GByte HDD; Preis: ca 15 Euro (500 GByte HDD)
  • Mainboard: ca 70 Euro
  • Power Supply: ca 30 Euro 
  • Case: ca 60 Euro 
  • Total: 235 Euro

The minimum required PC for League of Legends includes some very old components, especially the graphics card and the processor. If you want to do anything other than play LoL with this PC, it might be difficult, since the overall computing power is very low.

But the price is also extremely low. You only pay around 235 Euros for the entire PC, after which you still have to assemble it, of course. In times where graphics cards often cost twice the RRP, this is very cheap.

The Recommended PC for LoL

  • Prozessor: AMD Ryzen 3 1200; Preis: ca 75 Euro
  • Graphic Card: GeForce 560; Preis: ca 50 Euro
  • RAM: 4 GByte; Preis: ca 15 Euro
  • Memory: 16 GByte HDD; Preis: ca 15 Euro (500 GByte HDD)
  • Mainboard: ca 45 Euro
  • Power Supply: ca 30 Euro
  • Case: ca 60 Euro
  • Total: 290 Euro

Even if we go by the recommended system requirements, you can still get away very cheap for a new PC with under 300 Euros. Even though new is not necessarily the case here. Because you can't even get some components new anymore, since they are already so old.

You should note that these PCs are really only suitable for League of Legends. If you want to play other games with your PC, you should probably spend a bit more for a real gaming PC.

If you're looking for a well-rounded gaming PC then check out the Centurion Intel i5 1650 Gaming PC. It might be more expensive, but it has everything you'll need to play League of Legends, as well as other games as well. 

Of course, you can also check out a gaming laptop like the Acer Nitro 5 which is great for on-the-go gaming! But it's all up to you and your preferences in the end.
