Recommended PC & Mac Specs
You’re getting ready to purchase a new PC or Mac, but need to know what specs to get. In this article, we are going to tell you from a very basic level.
PC:
For the PC, you want to look for a gaming Desktop/Laptop. If you can, always go with a desktop, as they will perform much better, and quieter than a laptop. If you don’t plan to do any mobile streaming, there really is no reason to get a laptop.
CPU: Latest i7 or i9 processor
GPU: nVidia 1060 or higher
RAM: 32GM (minimum)
Please see our buying guide for the PC’s we recommend. You can go to that system and see the recommended specs, and then upgrade what you can. If you plan to upgrade, the graphic card is the best one to upgrade, then processor. Click here to see the PC’s we recommend. Just select the kit(s) that matches the set up you want to use.
MAC:
For the latest Macs, you do not need to upgrade the CPU unless you really want to. Just do the minimum one available, unless you have the chance to go from i7 to i9. This is a pretty big price jump. This is why we recommend a PC because you get so much more for your money, but if you are already in the Apple ecosystem, it is totally fine. Click here to see the Mac's I recommend. Just select the kit(s) that matches the set up you want to use.
Upgrade the graphic card to the BEST one you can get. Then get as much RAM as you can. At LEAST 32gb.
