Recommended Specs For Os X El Capitan

Whether you use SketchUp for Web on a computer or Chromebook, your device needs mouse and keyboard input.

IOS 13.1 or later. Compatible with iPhone,. iPad, and iPod touch. Smart Controls, Sound Library navigation, Smart Help, full mixer, and access to plug-in controls are available only on iPad.

You can use SketchUp for Web on most internet-connected computers via a recommended browser (Chrome 59+ or Firefox 52+).

To use SketchUp for Web on a Chromebook, your Chromebook needs to meet the minimum specifications. However, the minimum requirements don't offer the best experience using SketchUp for Web on a Chromebook. Ideally, your Chromebook meets the following recommended specifications.

Minimum SpecificationsRecommended Specifications
2.1+ GHz Intel processor2.8+ GHz Intel processor
4GB RAM8GB+ RAM
700MB of available hard-disk spaceAt least 1GB of available hard-disk space
Intel HD integrated graphics card with at least 512MB video memoryDiscrete Graphics card such as AMD Radeon R9 M37X 2048 MB

We recommend choosing the largest available offering of RAM for any listed Chromebook. 4GB is strongly preferable to 2GB.

SketchUp for Web supports Retina (high DPI) displays.

High DPI Support
SketchUp is DPI aware and can adjust the sizes of Icons and drawing elements so they are sized correctly for High DPI screens. Icons are sized when SketchUp starts up. If you adjust your DPI or scaling (Microsoft Windows – but only up to 150%) you will need to restart SketchUp to see correctly sized Icons and drawing elements.

Unsupported environments

Mac OS X 10.12 (Mojave)
SketchUp 2018 has a known issue that leads to a one-time crash of SketchUp 2018 on MacOS Mojave in the first 10-15 minutes (or so).

Windows Vista and older
These versions of Windows are no longer supported.

Mac OS X 10.12 (Sierra) and older
These versions of OS X are no longer supported.

Linux
A Linux version of SketchUp isn't available at this time. However, you may be interested to see how others have had success running SketchUp on Linux using Wine.

Virtualized Environments
At this time, SketchUp doesn't support operation in a virtualized environments such as VMWare or Citrix.
Per the SketchUp Pro License in section 1.1: You may not use or host the Software in a virtual server environment.

Boot Camp/Parallels/VMWare
Neither Boot Camp, VMWare nor Parallels are supported environments.

Remote Desktop Connections
Due to hardware restrictions in shared environments we can't reliably predict how SketchUp will perform. At this time SketchUp is not supported via a Remote Desktop Connection (RDC) on any platform.

Note: SketchUp will run on multiple-processor machines; however, SketchUp will only use one processor. SketchUp doesn't support hyper-threading or multi-threading at this time.
Note: You can use Logitech 3D Motion Controllers from 3Dconnexion to create models in SketchUp. The 3Dconnexion website has more information about these controllers.

Facepunch Studios multiplayer-only survival title Rust is all about one thing: surviving. Players spawn with nothing and compete against each other. Whether building up defenses as a solo player or banding together with others, one will have to overcome hunger, thirst, and cold as they venture forth into the world.

However, the game is much more graphic intensive when compared to other multiplayer survival titles. Rust features realistic elements like foliage, buildings, weather, and terrain compared to the block-based textures of fellow open-world title Minecraft.

Here are the minimum and recommended system requirements for Rust:

Rust Minimum PC System Requirements

  • OS: Windows 8.1 64bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-3770 / AMD FX-9590 or better
  • Memory: 10 GB RAM Graphics: GTX 670 2GB / AMD R9 280 better
  • DirectX: Version 11
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 20 GB available space
  • Additional Notes: SSD is highly recommended or expect longer than average load times.

Rust Recommended PC System Requirements

  • OS: Windows 10 64bit
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-4690K / AMD Ryzen 5 1600
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: GTX 980 / AMD R9 Fury
  • DirectX: Version 12
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 20 GB available space
  • Additional Notes: SSD is highly recommended.

Mac Os X 10.11 El Capitan

Rust Minimum System Requirements (Mac OS X)

  • OS: OS X Lion 10.7
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-3770 / AMD FX-9590 or better
  • Memory: 8 GB RAM
  • Graphics: GTX 670 2GB / AMD R9 280 better
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 20 GB available space

Rust Recommended System Requirements (Mac OS X)

  • OS: OS X El Capitan 10.11
  • Processor: Intel Core i7-4690K / AMD Ryzen 5 1600
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: GTX 980 / AMD R9 Fury
  • Network: Broadband Internet connection
  • Storage: 20 GB available space

Players meeting the minimum system requirements can indeed start playing Rust. However, the quality of gameplay on a computer running the recommended hardware will make all the difference. This is because a high frame rate is important for multiplayer survival titles like Rust where Co-op and PVP modes are enabled.

The possibility of lagging while trying to defend your base is never something anyone wants. This is even more apparent in popular servers since the increase of nearby players and structures will overload less powerful machines.

Players can choose to turn off settings like anti-aliasing, depth of field, motion blur, and more. In addition, one can lower shadow quality, water reflections, particles, and overall graphics quality to increase their frame rate.

Nevertheless, this will only do so much. Players will still have to meet the minimum system requirements in order to have an enjoyable experience playing the game.
