Quick Answer

Quick answer: at this budget the right Lies of P build pairs a Ryzen 5 7600 with a RTX 4060 Ti 8GB. An RTX 4060 holds 70-90 fps at 1440p High; an RX 7700 XT or RTX 4060 Ti pushes a locked 120 fps at 1440p.

How to spend this budget on this build

At a mid-range budget, R25,000 buys the jump to comfortable 1440p. A sensible spec list:

  • CPU: Ryzen 5 7600
  • GPU: RTX 4060 Ti 8GB or RX 7700 XT 12GB
  • RAM: 32GB DDR5-6000
  • Storage: 1TB NVMe SSD

A Ryzen 5 7600 keeps 1% lows tight through the game's denser combat arenas. All of these parts are the kind of components currently stocked at Evetech, so you can match the rig to what is actually in stock rather than a wishlist.

How it actually plays

Lies of P is a 2023 soulslike on Unreal Engine 4 that is well-optimised for its visual fidelity. An RTX 4060 holds 70-90 fps at 1440p High; an RX 7700 XT or RTX 4060 Ti pushes a locked 120 fps at 1440p.

Match the build to your screen: a 1080p 144Hz panel suits this CPU/GPU pairing and is the most cost-effective way to feel the extra frames in South Africa.

Monitor, storage and the bits people forget

  • Don't over-buy the GPU. Spend to the tier the game needs, then bank the rest toward your next upgrade.
  • Get 32GB if the budget allows. DDR5-6000 dual-channel keeps frametimes flat and future-proofs you against newer releases for a small premium.
  • SSD first, always. A 1TB NVMe SSD cuts load times and stutter far more than a marginal GPU bump; modern game installs of 80-120GB fill a 500GB drive fast.
  • Buy a quality 650W-750W power supply. It protects the rest of the build and leaves room for a future GPU upgrade without a full swap.

FAQ

Do I need an expensive graphics card for Lies of P?

Not an expensive one. An RX 7600 or RTX 4060 already pushes well past 100 fps in this game; bigger cards only matter if you also play heavier AAA titles or game at 1440p and above.

What frame rate will I get at this budget?

An RTX 4060 holds 70-90 fps at 1440p High; an RX 7700 XT or RTX 4060 Ti pushes a locked 120 fps at 1440p. Pair it with a matching high-refresh monitor to actually feel those frames.

Is this budget the right amount to spend for Lies of P?

Yes for a 1080p/1440p build. R25,000 buys the jump to comfortable 1440p. You can step the GPU up or down a tier to match exactly what is in stock at Evetech.
