Highly Doubt your machine will run the game decently. A tad bit outdated.

Your setup meets or exceeds the game's minimum specs, so you should be able to play as long as you turn some settings down. If you don't have an SSD yet, then I strongly recommend it - even a SATA SSD would have performance benefits compared to spinning rust (for PoE1, too).

Hey i bought PoE2 and i have the following specs

i5 8400
32GB RAM
RTX 3070 8GB
SSD nvme2

I'm still in the first acts and the game is running well. (120 fps) and in the city it can drop to ~30 but it doesn't matter for me there ( all on MAX )
There is only issue i see so far which is the loading issue, the first time anything loads (like entering a new map for first time) can take a minute to load, opening the map in the new location can take a minute as well. After that it seems to load for just a few seconds even after i restart the game. I'm not sure why it's happening but i think it's because of the CPU since i can see it's on 100% usage while loading. Also sometimes the new enemies are invisible for few seconds till they load. I hope the game will be improved in the future for these things, other than that i think it's playable. If u don't mind encountering the issues i encountered so far, i'd say go for it!

I had the same spec PC as you on POE2. I can't get running smoothly like 120fps. My max at 60 ish fps while walking around in dungeon etc. As usual, town was 30fps +/-. While fighting, it can drop 30fps below. Maybe Im using withes with flame wall?

What setting are you on for your windows side?

Same I5 8400 CPU here. I suspect it is the bottleneck.
I just ordered an i9 9900k.
Ping me in a few days if I didn't update the result after the upgrade.

You can still refund it on Steam if your performances are too low ?
