Minimum computer specifications

We are often asked what computer specifications are needed for today's home or work computers. So, we have decided to put it down in short form for everyone's information:

Minimum suggested Computer Specs as of 1/1/2023:

Description of spec:

- Operating System (OS):
- Processor:
- Memory / RAM:

- Hard Drive:

Min. computer specs needed:

Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit (highly recommended - Home or Pro version)
Intel Core I5, 12th generation or higher (i.e. Intel Core I7, 12th generation)
8 GB or more

We HIGHLY recommended a Solid-State Drive (SSD) (as it has NO moving parts - this makes it faster and more durable than a "regular hard drive"). The size of the hard drive depends on your data needs, but typically a 256GB SSD or 512GB SSD hard drive is big enough.
