WIN8 System Configuration Requirements diagram

Many children's shoes want to give their old computer installation Win8 system to try to know whether the hardware configuration to meet the requirements, in fact, the minimum configuration of WIN8 system requirements is not very high, if your computer to meet the configuration requirements of the following diagram, installation Win8 system without pressure.

But if you want to run the WIN8 system smoothly, you need more memory and hard disk storage space ~ The following small series for you to bring more detailed WIN8 system configuration requirements.

If you want to run the WIN8 system on your computer, the following conditions must be met:

1. Processors: 1GHz or faster (supports PAE, NX and SSE2);

2. Memory: 1GB (32-bit) or 2GB (64-bit);

3. Hard disk space: 16GB (32-bit) or 20GB (64-bit);

4. Graphics card: MicrosoftDirectX9 graphics equipment with WDDM driver;

If you want to run the Win8.1 system on your computer, the following conditions must be met:

1. Processors: 1GHz or faster (supports PAE, NX and SSE2);

2. Memory: 1GB (32-bit) or 2GB (64-bit);

3. Hard disk space: 16GB (32-bit) or 20GB (64-bit);

4. Graphics card: MicrosoftDirectX9 graphics equipment with WDDM driver;

What are PAE, NX, and SSE2:

Physical Address Extensions (PAE), NX processor bits (NX), and streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) are the functions of the processor and require them to run the Win8.1 system.

1.PAE enables a 32-bit processor to use more than 4GB of physical memory on a version of Windows with the appropriate capabilities, a prerequisite for using NX.

2.NX helps the processor to protect your computer from malware attacks.

3.sse2 is a set of standard instructions on processors used by a growing number of third-party applications and drivers.
