The published minimum is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 950M 4GB paired with an Intel Core i5 6300HQ. That is a 2015-era gaming laptop, which puts this well inside reach of older hardware. The recommended tier jumps to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB.

Can your PC run it?
Pick your two parts. We compare them against the exact chips DiSolve Studios named on the Steam page.
Choose a graphics card and a processor to see where you land.
Scores below are an approximate performance ranking, not benchmark results. Each part is placed relative to the two cards the developer named: the GTX 950M (minimum) and the RTX 2060 (recommended). Use it to see which side of the line your PC falls on, not to predict a frame rate.
Reading these numbers
Two things stand out. First, the minimum GPU is a mobile part: the 950M and the RX 550 Mobile are both laptop chips. Naming laptop hardware at the minimum tier is a deliberate signal that the studio expects people to run this on notebooks, not just desktops.
Second, Steam lists no RAM requirement at all. That field is simply absent from both tiers on the store page. It is unusual, and we are not going to fill it in with a plausible-looking 8 GB. If the developer adds one, it will appear here.
The storage ask is small: 4 GB available space minimum, 6 GB available space recommended. That is a modest install by 2026 standards. The store page does not explain why the two tiers differ.
The gap between the tiers
There is a wide spread between a GTX 950M and an RTX 2060, several generations and roughly five times the throughput. A gap that large usually means the game scales through settings rather than demanding one specific class of card. If you land between the two tiers, expect to be adjusting quality rather than choosing between playable and unplayable.
The DirectX version also moves, from 11 at minimum to 12 at recommended. Any card that clears the recommended GPU line supports DirectX 12 anyway, so this is not a separate hurdle.
Laptops and handhelds
Because the floor is a mobile GPU, integrated graphics are worth testing rather than dismissing. A modern iGPU such as the Radeon 780M sits comfortably above a 950M in raw terms, though it shares system memory instead of having the 4 GB of dedicated VRAM the developer asks for. For Steam Deck and similar handhelds, see our platforms page. The game has no Deck compatibility rating published.
The closest thing to a real test before launch is the free demo. Bear in mind the developer has said the demo is much less optimised than the release version will be, so it is a floor rather than a preview of final performance.
