    I don't know if this is the post to put my question. I was looking for information related to the hardware requirements to run Sim Engine and Sim Manager in the same computer but I did not find information. I have my laptop and works fine, but I need a dedicated computer to work with simtools. I play the games in a PS4 then I need to buy one computer or mini pc to run only Windows 10 with simtools. How many cores must have a computer? How many memory ram?

    I found some mini pcs:

    I think that is enough to run simtools. I don't need to use a gamer pc because I'm going to play in a PS4.

    I was reading information about vibe, dash and the professional functionalities for simtools, Do theses add-ons require additional hardware (processor, memory)?

    There is some small overhead, and in the case of Game Vibe one or two cheap USB sound cards are needed.
