Minimum System Requirements[edit | edit source]
We recommend a minimum hardware configuration for running a Step User build at a resolution of 1920x1080. The minimum requirements will allow most users to install and run the Baseline options. Most mods offer higher-quality options that are not noticeable in game unless a 4K-capable system is used. Obviously, our minimum requirements represent a 'baseline', and more powerful hardware will yield better results.
Hardware | Minimum | Recommended |
---|---|---|
Windows OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 64-bit |
CPU | Intel Core i5-3470 or equivalent | Intel Core i5-4670 equivalent or better |
System RAM | 8 GB | 8 GB or higher |
GPU | Nvidia GTX 780 3GB / AMD R9 290 4GB | Nvidia GTX 970 or equivalent or better / 4GB VRAM or higher |
Drive Space | ~65 GBs (includes game+guide) | ~75 GBs (includes game+guide) |
Monitor Resolution | 1920x1080 | 1920x1080 or higher |

System Requirements[edit | edit source]
User should be run on a relatively modern Windows 10/11 64-bit desktop or laptop. While CPU specs and performance are important factors, they matter only to a point beyond which is diminishing return on investment. Smooth gameplay, LODGen-related tools, and ENBSeries post processing are most limited by the GPU specs and performance coupled to the resolution at which the game is run.
- The minimum specs assume that the recommended 'baseline' mod options will be installed, which are biased towards 'performance' options when available.
- The recommended specs assume a bias favoring 'quality' mod options will be installed when available.
- CPU/GPU hardware listed below are relatively popular "performance-class examples", and many alternatives lie within or outside of these classes.
