NOTE

VBS4 does not require expensive professional graphics cards (designed for CAD work, CGI, or other complex scientific calculations). These cards do not provide any additional benefits compared to graphics cards designed for gaming.

VBS4 installations that are intended to be used as Dedicated Servers or Simulation Clients can meet the VBS World Server requirements instead of the more graphically demanding VBS4 requirements.

WARNING To avoid potential UI display issues, do not use USB hubs or adapters to connect monitors.

NOTE

The hardware listed is not exclusive. Compare your hardware to the listed items for an indication of performance.

Operational usage can affect performance requirements. Increasing visual fidelity (detail, distance, and / or resolution), as well as scenario complexity, can have a significant impact on performance, and may warrant increasing the system specification to the next performance tier.
