To be used efficiently, all needs certain components or other software resources to be present on a. These prerequisites are known as (computer) system requirements and are often used as a guideline as opposed to an absolute rule.
Most software defines two sets of system requirements: minimum and recommended. With increasing demand for higher processing power and resources in newer versions of software, system requirements tend to increase over time.
Industry analysts suggest that this trend plays a bigger part in driving upgrades to existing computer systems than technological advancements. A second meaning of the term of System requirements, is a generalisation of this first definition, giving the requirements to be met in the design of a system or sub-system. Contents.Recommended system requirements Often manufacturers of games will provide the consumer with a set of requirements that are different from those that are needed to run a software. These requirements are usually called the Recommended Requirements. These requirements are almost always of a significantly higher level than the minimum requirements, and represent the ideal situation in which to run the software. Generally speaking, this is a better guideline than minimum system requirements in order to have a fully usable and enjoyable experience with that software.Hardware requirements The most common set of requirements defined by any or is the physical computer resources, also known as, A hardware requirements list is often accompanied by a (HCL), especially in case of operating systems. An HCL lists tested, compatible, and sometimes incompatible hardware devices for a particular operating system or application.
The following sub-sections discuss the various aspects of hardware requirements.Architecture All computer are designed for a particular. Most software applications are limited to particular operating systems running on particular architectures.
Although architecture-independent operating systems and applications exist, most need to be recompiled to run on a new architecture. See also a list of and their supporting architectures.Processing power The power of the (CPU) is a fundamental system requirement for any software. Most software running on define processing power as the and the of the CPU. Many other features of a CPU that influence its speed and power, like, and are often ignored.
This definition of power is often erroneous, as and CPUs at similar clock speed often have different throughput speeds. Intel CPUs have enjoyed a considerable degree of popularity, and are often mentioned in this category. Memory All software, when run, resides in the (RAM) of a computer. Memory requirements are defined after considering demands of the application, operating system, supporting software and files, and other running processes.
