Processor / Memory:

  • 7th generation processor recommended (recommend upgrading if older than a 6th generation processor).
  • Minimum quad core processor recommended. 6 core processor is considered ideal.
  • Utilizes multi-threading and will benefit from multiple processors.
  • Non-geologic model projects 8 GB RAM recommended minimum. Geologic model projects > 16 GB ram recommended.

Video Card:

  • Minimum 512K memory video card.
  • Recommend 2GB video memory. Main recommendation is that the card has its own memory rather than sharing main memory.

Engine Priority Options:

In the Run Engine Options beginning in v9.1+, the priority level of the simulation can be set. Recommendations are shown below based on number of cores.

SETTINGPRIORITYRECOMMENDATION
Backgroundlow priority with ½ the coresRecommended setting for dual core
Foregroundnormal priority with all the coresBest for most users
Max Performancehigh priority with all the coresQuad core or above recommended

For Additional Performance, consider adding the following:

  • An Nvidia graphics card with 4 GB ram
  • 32 GB ram
  • 12 core (Intel I9 Equivalent or above) processor
