Hardware requirements #47

Closed KenCroft closed 3 years ago

KenCroft commented 6 years ago

Any idea on hardware requirements? I built one out for my kids last year using a spare laptop and had no real issues. I'd like to build one out for a charity organization but funding is a little tight.

Any thoughts on what minimum requirements I should look for on processor/memory/GPU?

Thinking about a windows mini PC (haven't seen anything successful with RasPi, so can't go quite that cheap).

Hi @KenCroft, I think the most important is to have a graphic card with some OpenGL support (at least OpenGL 2.1 but support of OpenGL version >= 3.2 would be better). That's the main issue with RasPi I think, its embedded graphic processor is really too basic. Other than that the requirements are not very high.
