As a quick guide, you need at least a Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB, AMD Radeon RX 580 with at least 6GB of VRAM graphics card, a Intel Core i5-8400, AMD Ryzen 3600 processor, and 8 GB RAM of RAM to play at 1080p.
Can I run Squad on my laptop?
Yes, if your laptop has a dedicated graphics card around a Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB, AMD Radeon RX 580 with at least 6GB of VRAM or better and 8 GB RAM of RAM. Laptops with only integrated graphics usually fall short. Enter your laptop's GPU in the tool above to check. Keep in mind that the laptop version of a card runs a little slower than the desktop card of the same name, and heat can lower sustained frame rates.
To run Squad you need at least a Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB, AMD Radeon RX 580 with at least 6GB of VRAM graphics card, a Intel Core i5-8400, AMD Ryzen 3600 processor, and 8 GB RAM. Use the checker above to see whether your PC or laptop clears the bar, then check the full requirements below.
