     No try getting a RTX 3090 to help you with it. It would definitely increase the chances of you being able to run the game.

      Hi Patrick, thanks for the question.
      Since youve got an Nvidia GPU, you can expect minimal performance loss if you use the NVENC encoder for streaming. As for LOL performance, you should be looking at a solid 60FPs @1080p but of course, it all depends on the settings you use.

          That PC should should be getting well over 100FPS in League of legends. Maybe try updating the drivers of your GPU. What FPS do you get in other games? League of legends is not a demanding game and you have a fairly nice PC.

      The minimum requirement is:

      CPU: 3GHz Processor (supporting SSE2 instruction set or higher)
      RAM: 2GB RAM
      HDD: 12GB Free Space

      So I would say that you probably can run LOL.
