Minimum requirements
Likely meets minimum requirements
Operating system — supported (Windows 11; or macOS — one of the three most recent versions (the current release and the previous two)); versions are shown, not compared. RAM — needs 4 GB; the memory is upgradeable, so it depends on the installed modules. Processor — only an architecture or instruction-set level is stated (x64); core counts and clock speeds are not compared.
How this was judged
Graphics chips are compared by class (an 8-tier rubric), not by benchmark score. The same tier as the requirement is only ever “likely”. Read the tier rubric and its limitations.
