What you need to run it
The minimum specification calls for Intel® Core™ i5-8400以上, AMD Ryzen™ 5 3400G 以上 and 12 GB RAM. A 12GB memory requirement is demanding — worth checking before you buy, because 8GB is still common in older and budget machines. Install size is roughly 85GB. Both tiers are compared side by side on the requirements page, and you can check your own parts against them without installing anything.
