Tech Implementation - Hardware Requirements for Sim Specialists

PC Requirements

Recommended Specifications 

    • CPU (Processor): Intel Core i7 (13th Gen)
    • System Memory (RAM): 16GB DDR5 minimum 4800 MHz RAM (2 x 8 GB)
    • Storage (hard drive): 512GB PCIe Gen4 NVMe TLC M.2 SSD
    • Internet connection:
      • Wired connection required 
      • 20 Mbps Download (100+ recommended)
      • 5 Mbps Upload (15+ recommended)
    • GPU (Graphics):
      • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 “TGP of 115 watts“ or higher (must support H.264 encoding)
      • >6GB of Dedicated GPU RAM
    • Ports:
      • 3 USB ports (for Jabra headset, Xbox controller, mouse) or appropriate USB hub or USB-C devices.
    • Operating System: Windows 11 (x64)
      • Note: Windows 10 is also supported, however Windows has announced the deprecation of Windows 10 with an end-of-support (EoS) date of Oct 14th, 2025. Windows 11 will be the better, more secure option as Windows 10 is phased out over time. 
    • General Note: If purchasing a laptop, we recommend purchasing a gaming laptop as opposed to a laptop designed/advertised as a lightweight and/or ultra thin laptop. Gaming laptops have better cooling systems and our software is equivalent to many heavyweight modern video games. Desktop PCs with good cooling systems are also a good choice.

      Additional Hardware Components and Requirements

      Webcam

      • Minimum resolution: 640x480

      Xbox Controller

      • Supported Models (Note: Controller connection via Bluetooth is not supported) 
        • Microsoft 4N6-00001 Xbox Controller + Cable for Windows
        • Microsoft Xbox 360 Wired Controller for Windows PowerA
        • PowerA Wired Officially Licensed Controller For Xbox One, S, Xbox One X & Windows 10 

      Headset 

      Secondary Monitor

      • Secondary monitor is optional for delivery via Mursion Magic, but strongly recommended for ease of use and efficiency.
      • Secondary monitor is required for ML3z // Mursion Social deliveries.
      • In both cases, the only requirement is that the monitor be large enough for ease of use for Simulation Specialist. We recommend:
        • A 24" or larger monitor
      • Keep in mind to get a monitor that has compatible ports and cabling for the station you have.

      Station Hardware Links 

      • Mursion has tested and run deliveries on the following stations, and can recommend them. This is by no means an exhaustive list, and when purchasing from retails you should double-check that all system requirements above are met, as stock and model variations can fluctuate.
