Building dedicated Warhammer online PC

[Tankna]

Hi,

I want to build a dedicated warhammer online PC.
Am trying to figure out what the best spec is to run this game.
Also what is better operating system linux or windows to run this.

So if anybody got ideas or knows how game works best pls help me.

Greetings,

Tank

If I remember correctly, it’s been a few years since I read a similar post. This game being 2008 technology, runs on a single thread, so it’s pretty much overkill to throw a modern cpu/gpu at ror. I’m looking at an $800 gaming laptop for my dedicated ror device.

linux runs this game so much better than windows its not even close. literally day and night performance wise

The game wants a strong single core on your cpu, a large amount of cpu cashe, and ram. you gpu barley maters to it. So look for something with a x3d amd processer and overclock at least 1 thread for it.

Obviously I am not bragging on my PC, it's ~14 years old. I do have an SSD and a "new" GPU from 2017.

In my experience RoR runs very well on max settings with many mods. Before I got a discrete GPU to replace my builtin Intel HD4600 that was not the case, it was playable but chugged around in many areas. I also attribute my nice FPS ~90-99 range (dipping to 70 or so under stress) to running the game in CachyOS linux (re: cachy-proton) and DXVK via Steam.
