CPU performance can have a significant effect on CS2 FPS.

Please note: These figures are realistic performance estimates rather than guaranteed benchmark results. Actual FPS can vary depending on the processor, memory, drivers, game updates, background applications, cooling, selected map and individual game settings. Ray tracing, shaders, resolution scaling and frame generation can also significantly change performance.

Integrated graphics estimates assume 16GB of dual channel 3200MHz memory. Systems using single channel memory or slower RAM may deliver substantially lower integrated graphics performance.

The Vega Advantage — Intel Edition

Big VRAM. Small Price. Zero Compromise at 1080p.

Same 8GB HBM2 graphics power as our AMD build, paired here with an efficient Intel platform — a genuinely capable 1080p gaming PC with more video memory than plenty of cards twice its price.

🎮 Why an older GPU instead of a brand new one?

The RX Vega 56 8GB, Black (Used) launched as a high-end card and still performs in GTX 1070 territory today — that's genuinely strong for 1080p gaming. It also carries 8GB of HBM2 memory, which is more VRAM than many current budget cards under £250. At this price point, it's simply better value than a new entry-level card with less memory to work with.

🔄 What's different from the standard Vega Advantage?

This edition swaps the AMD Ryzen platform for an Intel Core i3-12100F on a Gigabyte H610M board. Gaming performance is effectively identical since both builds are paired with the same RX Vega 56 8GB, Black (Used) — the graphics card is doing the heavy lifting either way. This is simply a platform preference option.

♻️ Is the graphics card used?

Yes — the RX Vega 56 8GB, Black (Used) in this build is a tested, fully working used unit. We disclose this openly because we'd rather you know exactly what you're buying than pay a premium for a "new" badge on an older architecture.

🔒 Will this run Windows 11?

Yes. This build uses a TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot capable motherboard with no bypasses or workarounds — fully compliant, not a DDR3-era platform pretending otherwise.

⚡ Why a 750W power supply on a budget build?

The RX Vega 56 8GB, Black (Used) draws more power than a modern equivalent-performance card, so we've sized the PSU with proper headroom rather than cutting it fine. It also means you've got room to upgrade the graphics card down the line without needing a new power supply.
