The minimum specification calls for AMD FX Series or Intel Core i3 Series, 4 GB RAM and AMD HD5570 or NVIDIA GT440 with 1GB of VRAM (DirectX 11 graphics card required). At 4GB of RAM, it will run on essentially any working PC — that is below what a budget laptop ships with today. Install size is roughly 50GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
