Best CPU for Star Wars Battlefront 2

Autocon487 · Dec 31, 2017

So I am looking for some sort of a CPU that is strong for Star Wars Battlefront 2 and is not very expensive. If there is one I would like to know what recommended motherboard I would need for the socket to fit the CPU

We need a number for your budget. "Not very expensive" means different things to different people.

Around $300 I am going for

Also need which version of SWBF II you want to play. If it's the classic from 2005 then it only needs.
Processor: Intel Pentium 4 1.5 GHz or Athlon XP 1500+

If it's the latest P2W version that'll be more expensive.

300 for just the CPU ? or 300 for motherboard/CPU?

Intel i5 8400
Or
Intel i5 8600k
For AMD:
Amd ryzen 5 1600x
Or
AMD ryzen 7 1700
All of them are 200-300$

CPU: Intel - Core i3-7100 3.9GHz Dual-Core Processor ($106.99 @ SuperBiiz)
Motherboard: ASRock - B250M Pro4 Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($60.98 @ Newegg)
Memory: Patriot - Signature Line 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2400 Memory ($88.99 @ Newegg)
Total: $256.96

Or swap out the i3 for a G4560 for $40 less.

Not sure what you have for a GPU but a Ryzen 1200 @ 3.9ghz matched with a 1050ti handles SWB 2 Max 1080p 43+ FPS . The i3 and G4560 are a little lower, if you have a better GPU then better FPS. All of these CPU's are quite capable matched with a 1060.

Major_Trouble :

It'll be the latest one that just came out

Core i5 8400 or Ryzen 5 1400/1500X is a good balance. Even a Core i3-8100 would be good, Battlefront 2 isn't that demanding.

You didn't answer the budget question, are you looking at spending no more than $300 total or just $300 for the CPU?
