Player: One | 3050 Edition

The CPU is like the brain of your build, coordinating all components for your PC to run and impacting in-game FPS.

You can choose between two CPUs for Player: One. Both are 12th generation, i5 core processors that will provide high performance but have two key differences.

• Clock Speed: Measured in GHz. The higher the number, the faster the computer. You’ll notice a higher clock speed when opening programs, files and exporting photos.
• Total Cores: More cores allows your computer to do more things at once. You’ll appreciate more cores if you often have lots of programs running or open lots of web browser tabs.

The GPU is considered by many to be one of the most important components in your build. That's because it has one of the most important jobs: rendering what you do on your PC to your display! When considering GPUs, here are a few features to consider:

• GPU VRAM: More VRAM generally allows you to run games at higher settings. For quality gaming, aim for a minimum of 6GB VRAM. Above this enhances game detail.
• CUDA Core: CUDA is NVIDIA's technology that enables faster processing on their GPUs (just like AMD’s Stream Processors.) Generally, the more CUDA cores the more graphics rendering, simulations, and deep learning performances.
• Clock Speed: Higher clock speeds enhance performance in gaming, while more cores boost performance under heavy workloads.

RAM is a specialized memory that temporarily holds information for the applications and games running on your PC. More RAM means your PC can handle more processes simultaneously.

For general multitasking and gaming, we recommend a minimum of 16GB of RAM. Faster RAM makes your PC more responsive. While RAM has little impact on frame rate, it significantly improves your PC's usability.

Your storage device saves the operating system, applications, and files. We offer different storage options with speeds measured in MB/s (Megabytes per Second). Faster storage retrieves information quicker.
