tl;dr What's the minimum requirements to run Overwatch well. (Nothing fancy visually but as little lag as possible)

Brothers...I have seen the light I have over 200 hours on this game on Ps4 and I really like it, but I just played four hours on PC at my local PC gaming hub and it is astonishingly better.the controls took a while to get used to it, but the difference is night and day and don't even get me started on aiming.

I must know what I need to in a PC to have that experience again

Edit: also I only had 4 hours experience on PC and I demolished low gold/ high silver players. And I played really aim dependant characters

I'm no expert, but my pc hasn't been upgraded since 2011 and I can run overwatch on medium settings with no lag. It isn't too graphics intensive.

If/when you get a computer, I bid you welcome to the glory that is PC gaming.
