What these figures do not say about League of Legends
The numbers come from the publisher. What frame rate League of Legends reaches on your machine they do not say: that depends on resolution, detail level and how processor and graphics card work together. The Performance Hub estimates it for League of Legends, it does not measure it.
The hardware floor for League of Legends
This floor comes out of the frame rate model: it looks for the weakest buyable part in our catalogue that the model still credits with the target rate for League of Legends. It is a lower bound, not a buying recommendation, and none of it is measured.
For 60 frames at 1080p the model settles on Intel Arc A380 together with Intel Core i3-12100. For that pair it works out 100 frames.
For 144 frames at 1440p the model settles on NVIDIA RTX 5050 together with Intel Core i3-12100. For that pair it works out 200 frames.
