Hi all,
I'm looking for a software that can gauge or compare how much CPU and Memory a certain application uses.
and some how make recommended "hardware requirements"

how does everyone come up with hardware requirements for each game or software out there?

is there such software?

thank you!

Well the manufacturers will usually provide hardware recommendations but these always tend to be rather optimistic. In practice you usually need more than the minimum spec to run a game/application smoothly.

Example :wink:

You can use Task Manager (Hit Ctrl+Del) to see how much memory and CPU a piece of software is using:
