<p>CIG games including Star Citizen and Squadron 42 have the following <a href="https://support.robertsspaceindustries.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042417374" target="_blank" rel="noopener">minimum requirements</a>. We strongly recommend having a system with these minimums to effectively install, load, and play the games.</p>
<ul>
<li>Windows 10 (64bit, latest Service Pack) or Windows 11</li>
<li>DirectX 11.1 Graphics Card with 4GB RAM</li>
<li>Quad Core CPU - <em>Intel:</em> i7 or later, <em>AMD:</em> Bulldozer or later</li>
<li>16GB+ RAM</li>
<li>SSD required</li>
</ul>
<p>We also recommend the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Drive should be NTFS formatted with at least 100 GB of space for the RSI Launcher and Star Citizen for install and at least 10GB (SSD) additional space for the pagefile</li>
<li>Microsoft .NET Framework <strong><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">3.5</a></strong> and <strong><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42642" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">4.5.2</a></strong>
</li>
<li>Ports opens for TCP 8000 - 8020 and UDP 64090 - 64110</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not currently support Linux or macOS Operating Systems. Be sure to check our <a href="https://robertsspaceindustries.com/roadmap/board/1-Star-Citizen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Development Roadmap</a> to follow our feature development progress.</p>

<h2 id="h_01HV78XY0323KCJX3XXQP3456G">Review your System Information</h2>
