I hate to do this, especially as my first post, but I really dont know when it comes to specs and things.

Would a computer with the following be able to run unreal engine?:

Supermicro X7DVA-8 Motherboard including 2x Intel Xeon CPU (1.86 ghz)
Windows 7
12 GB of RAM
1x 250 gb HD
1x 1.44 floppy
1x Benq DVD R/W Drive
Solid Full Tower Case (8x19x21 inches)
Antec Earthwatts 500 watt PS

If it wouldnt, could you still tell me what would work from the above?

Thanks

What graphics card do you have?

Based off the processors, they are very old and low powered, on that along I would say it’s a bad idea.

I dont know what graphics card,a friend of mine told me about it on ebay. I literally know
next to nothing about computers in terms of hardware and that : )

All I want is to be able to run the software, not render or produce anything. I just want to be able to practice
and go along with the tutorials for now.

I’ll keep searching.

Thanks!

Open the windows search bar and search for dxdiag - open the program - go to display - there you should see your GPU -> the gpu is one of the most important parts when you play games/develop games :slight_smile:
