Minimum & Recommended Specifications[]
 Microsoft Windows Minimum/Recommended Specifications
| |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Minimum Specifications | Recommended Specifications | ||
| Operating System | Windows 7 x86/x64 | Operating System | Windows 10 x64 |
| CPU | SSE2 Support PassMark Single Thread Performance ~1600 |
CPU | AVX2 Support PassMark Single Thread Performance ~2100 |
| RAM | 4 GB | RAM | 8 GB |
| GPU | Direct3D10 Support OpenGL 3.x Support PassMark G3D ~3000 Rating (equivalent to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750) |
GPU | Direct3D11 Support OpenGL 4.5 Support PassMark G3D ~6000 Rating (equivalent to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti) |
| Graphics RAM | 2 GB | Graphics RAM | 4 GB |
| Notes | Recommended Single Thread Performance is based on moderately complex games. Games that pushed the PS2 hardware to its limits will struggle on CPUs at this level. Some release titles and 2D games which underutilized the PS2 hardware may run on CPUs rated as low as 1200. | Notes | Recommended GPU is based on 3x Internal, ~1080p resolution requirements. Higher resolutions will require stronger cards; 6x Internal, ~4K resolution will require a PassMark G3D Mark rating around 12000 (NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti). Just like CPU requirements, this is also highly game dependent. |
