Windows 9 Minimum System Requirements

[javajolt]

Most people who move to Windows 8 will do so when they buy a new PC or laptop. However, since the ‘Vista Capable' debacle, Microsoft has worked hard to keep down the system requirements for successive operating systems, meaning older computers could upgrade.

Windows 9, also known as “Threshold”, is expected to arrive sometime in 2015 and hopes and wishes from users definitely aren’t in short supply ahead of its unveiling.

Windows 9 Minimum System Requirements

No information on the minimum hardware required to run Windows 9 has been released, but expect it to be similar to the requirements for Windows 8:

CPU: 1 GHz with NX, PAE, and SSE2 support (CMPXCHG16b, PrefetchW, and LAHF/SAHF support for 64-bit versions)

RAM: 1 GB (2 GB for 64-bit versions)

Hard Drive: 16 GB free space (20 GB free for 64-bit versions)

Graphics: A GPU that supports at least DirectX 9 with a WDDM driver
