Satisfactory requirements for PC

To run the Satisfactory system requirements, you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 GPU, an Intel Core i5-3570 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 15GB of HD space.

Due to the nature of the game, Satisfactory requires more and more computer resources the larger your factory grows, so exceeding the Satisfactory PC requirements is in your best interests.

To play on the Satisfactory minimum requirements, you will need a minimum CPU equivalent to an Intel Core i5-3570, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card, and 8GB of RAM.

Official Satisfactory recommended specs have remained unannounced throughout the game's Early Access period which began in 2019, but we've performed extensive testing with our FPS monitor and found that players can achieve a consistently high framerate and gameplay performance with an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, an Intel Core i5-10400F CPU, and 16GB of RAM. 

It's worth stating again that Satisfactory can become incredibly demanding of any computer, especially when your factory swells to a certain size and complexity. For this reason, you may want to spread your base out over the Satisfactory map rather than build everything in one location to reduce the overall load on your machine.
