Can your computer run that game?

System Requirements

Can I run Bioshock Infinite, Far Cry 3, Crysis 3, Battlefield 3, Assassin's Creed III, Call of Duty Black Ops II, Tomb Raider, or Grand Theft Auto IV? Does my computer meet the minimum or recommended requirements for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim or SimCity? Difficult questions. But evaluating whether or not your computer meets or exceeds hardware requirements is our specialty. Remembering your exact PC hardware specs is tough, deciphering the meaning of a PC game’s minimum requirements is challenging and combining those tasks together is almost impossible for mere mortals. But Can You RUN It does this millions of times every month. See for yourself, takes less than a minute.

How it works

This site provides a One-Click solution that looks at your computer's hardware and system software to determine whether or not your current system can run a product. Each of your computer's components is evaluated to see how well it meets the minimum and recommended requirements for specific products. Recommendations are made on how to update or upgrade each component which does not meet the listed requirements. Sometimes, a simple, free software download is all that is needed. Sometimes you'll find that you need a different video card to fully experience what the game has to offer.
