Today the Saints Row game is relaunched, the game that in its day would be the competition of the GTA. The developers have released the specs for the game, so we thought you’d still be interested in what you’d need to play the game. We have thought to offer you the best settings for Saints Row in 1080p resolution with a rate of 60 FPS or more.
We have been looking at what might be the most balanced setup to play this game. You can choose to update the entire team, if it does not arrive with the components you have. But, if most of the components are equivalent and you only need to change the graphics card, then that money you save.
PC for Saints Row for less than 900 euros
When a new game is released, surely the most important thing to a gaming fan is whether he will be able to move the game. Normally the developers give the minimum requirements and we recommend and then, get your life. Deep Silver Volition, developers of the new Saints Row have revealed the minimum, recommended, high and ultra requirements.
Based on the recommended settings for gaming at 1080p and a frame rate of 60 FPS or higher, we have chosen this setting. Then, each one can adjust it according to their needs or budget. This is a PC proposal for Saints Row that is around 900 euros, always seeking to make a quality and economic configuration. Let’s see the components.
CPU – Intel Core i3-10100F
A 4-core, 8-thread processor is recommended by the game developers, so we’ve looked for the best priced equivalent option. Among the most interesting and affordable options is the Intel Core i3-10100F which in Boost mode reaches 4.3 GHz and a price of around 80 euros . We have alternative options from AMD, but these are already around 130 euros, so we leave it to the user’s taste.
Motherboard – ASRock B560M PRO4
Here it already depends on what we want to spend, there are very cheap solutions and more than enough for this processor. We have opted for the ASRock B560M PRO4 because it is the most complete and offers, among other things, a passive heatsink for the M.2 PCIe SSD. Perhaps the connectivity is a bit cut, but for the rest, it is a very good motherboard for about 120 euros.
Graphics – Gigabyte RTX 3050 EAGLE OC
The developers state that at least 8 GB of VRAM is required for this game at 1080p @ 60 FPS. We have therefore been looking for graphs that meet this minimum requirement. Among the most interesting is the Gigabyte RTX 3050 EAGLE , which is one of the cheapest. This graphic offers us support for DLSS (which gives us extra FPS) and Ray Tracing . It is around 400 euros , but if we find it on sale for 350 euros it is a very good option. As an alternative, more or less equivalent, we have the AMD RX 6600 , which also has 8 GB of VRAM.
RAM – Kingston FURY Beast RGB DDR4 16GB
We are especially struck by the fact that the game for the resolution and FPS rate that we have chosen this configuration requires at least 12 GB of RAM . So a configuration of 8 GB is not worth it and it is absurd to create a configuration of 12 GB in DDR4, so we go to 16 GB DDR4. Among the most interesting options is the Kingston FURY Beast RGB DDR4 16 GB . We are talking about a kit of two 8 GB modules and that has RGB lighting, which has a very attractive price of less than 90 euros.
SSD – Crucial P2 M.2 PCIe 3.0 1TB
Those who want to save a bit can opt for a 2.5-inch SATA-type SSD. We wanted to find the best possible performance, which is why we have chosen an M.2 and PCIe 3.0 format SSD , since the processor does not support PCIe 4.0 (and they are more expensive). The Crucial P2 drive has a capacity of 1TB and a fairly acceptable performance for the 100 euros that it usually costs.
Box – Nfortec Eris RGB White
Within the market of PC towers there are many options, cheaper than this one, but they did not comply with being of good quality and front mayado. The Nfortec Eris has seemed to us to be an excellent option, as it has a canted front and two fans on the front. It’s a micro-ATX chassis , just like our motherboard, so it fits like a glove. This box is around 60 euros , so it is an excellent option.
Power Supply – Corsair CV650 650W 80 Plus Bronze
The set we have chosen does not have a high consumption, so a 650 W source seems to us to be a very good option. The big drawback of this Corsair CV650 is that it is “basic” or what is the same, it is not modular. You already know that modular fountains are usually 20-30 more expensive, but we wanted to squeeze the budget as much as possible. This power supply is around 70 euros and is from a widely recognized brand.
