What the numbers actually mean
- 8 GB of RAM is the realistic floor. It is the line a cheap laptop fails while passing the processor and graphics requirements.
- Graphics floor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or AMD Radeon RX 570, 4 GB VRAM. That is the published minimum, not an estimate.
- Storage: 5 GB available space at minimum — leave the recommended figure free so patching does not fill the drive.
