System requirements
Windows | ||
---|---|---|
Minimum | ||
Operating system (OS) | 7, 8, 10, 11 | |
Processor (CPU) | Intel Celeron 2.3 GHz | |
System memory (RAM) | 512 MB | |
Hard disk drive (HDD) | 1 GB | |
Video card (GPU) | OpenGL 3.2[15] compatible DirectX 11[14] compatible |
- The Intel drivers that are bundled with Windows ("Vendor: Microsoft Corporation") do not include any OpenGL support and therefore won't work.
macOS (OS X) | ||
---|---|---|
Minimum | ||
Operating system (OS) | 10.9 | |
Processor (CPU) | Intel Celeron 2.3 GHz | |
System memory (RAM) | 1 GB | |
Hard disk drive (HDD) | 50 MB | |
Video card (GPU) | OpenGL 3.2[15] compatible |
- A 64-bit operating system is required.
Linux | ||
---|---|---|
Minimum | ||
Operating system (OS) | CentOS 7 | |
Processor (CPU) | Intel Celeron 2.3 GHz | |
System memory (RAM) | 1 GB | |
Hard disk drive (HDD) | 50 MB | |
Video card (GPU) | OpenGL 3.2[15] compatible |
- The Open-Source Intel Mesa drivers offer more OpenGL features than their Windows counterparts which is why older graphics card will work.
