On this occasion we are going to completely ignore the minimum requirements, basically because what we are looking for is to offer a series of PCs that meet at least those recommended, but focused on current hardware and not what the manufacturer refers, which is normally wider with older components.
These are the best PCs for F1 2022 according to your budget
Three different configurations with three different prices according to different average pockets. Given current costs they surely won’t be as affordable as they were a few years ago but what we can be clear is that they are suitable for gaming at a hertz rate more than decent and at very high resolutions.
That said, let’s go with them.
PC for 1080p and 60 FPS
- Processor: Intel Core i5-10400F
- base plate: ASRock B460 Steel Legends
- Memory: 2 x 8 GB CORSAIR Vengeance LPX DDR4-2666 MHz C16
- Graphic card: Sapphire PULSE RX 6600 8 GB
- SSD: Crucial P2 500 GB M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0 x4
- Source: CORSAIR CX750M Bronze
- Box: Nfortec Lynx RGB
It is a very balanced team, more than enough power to have no problems in any circuit and incidentally use DLSS, which will increase performance and visual quality. Your price will vary from store to store, but should be around 700 euro with the best offers up to 900 dollars.
PC for 2K and 60 FPS
- Processor: Intel Core i5-12400F
- base plate: GIGABYTE B660 Gaming X DDR4
- Memory: 2 x 8 GB CORSAIR Vengeance LPX DDR4-3200 MHz C16
- Graphic card: GIGABYTE RX 6600 XT EAGLE 8GB
- SSD: Western Digital Black SN750 1TB PCIe 3.0 x4
- Source: CORSAIR RM850 GOLD
- Box: Nox Hummer Horus ARGB
We’re taking a step closer to what a gaming PC should be for the midrange or maybe getting into the upper midrange. A motherboard with DDR4 is chosen to bring down the price of it and memory, since DDR5 is still overpriced. The PC has a more than good balance, with quality and contrasting components, it could be improved with an AIO for the CPU, since we are already entering interesting heating areas.
As for the price, it can be found in a price range between 1,100 dollars in the cheapest case and depending on where we choose each component, even the 1,300 dollarsmore than average price.
PC for F1 2022 at 4K and 60 FPS
- Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
- Plank base: ASUS X570-E Gaming
- Memory: 2 x 16 GB CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO SL 3.600 MHz C18
- Map printing: GIGABYTE RTX 3080 GAMING OC V2 10 GB
- SSD: Crucial P5 PLUS 1TB PCIe 4.0
- Source: CORSAIR RM1000X GOLD
- Box: CORSAIR 5000D Airflow
Here, we opted for a more brutal jump in performance thinking about the possible use of Ray Tracing. It is true that the higher the resolution, the less CPU dependent you are, but this only applies in cases where the GPU is near or at the limit. Here we’re looking for enough slack for the CPU to still make a difference, so choosing NVIDIA (DLSS and RT) as well as using a PSU close to the 50% load to achieve the greatest efficiency, always with the highest quality.
The motherboard is no doubt, the SSD even more, the memories are the new CORSAIR SL and the chassis offers cooling and quality options that we will see as soon as we open its box. The price is going to be high, that’s for sure, but it can be found between $2,100 and $2,400 on average
