What you need to run it

The minimum specification calls for AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or Intel Core i7-4790, 16 GB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, AMD Radeon RX 480 or or Intel Arc A580 (6 GB Video RAM required). A 16GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 30GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
