===Tygron System Test===
To verify that a system is able to run the Tygron Engine, we have offer the System Test. This application will analyse the specifications of your computer, and provide you with a score to indicate how well your system will perform. The test requires that the software specification listed below are in order.

System Specifications

Tygron products utilize gaming technology as their driving force, most notably the 3D visualization. This technology does mean a computer must meet certain requirements to be able to run Tygron products. Below the minimum system specifications.

Processor Intel Core i3 Processor (2.0GHz or more)
Memory 2 GB RAM memory or more
Graphics card * Has to support OpenGL 3.2 or higher, with a benchmark score exceeding 400. (This score can be found at videocardbenchmark.net or determined with the Tygron System Test software.)
Screen resolution 1280 x 1024 pixels or higher
Operating system ** Windows 7, 8
* Note: The application can also run on systems with lower hardware specifications with a minimum of OpenGL 2.0 support for the video card. In the case of such systems, it has to be remembered that the End Users will experience lower visual quality and reduced stability. We can advise NVIDIA Geforce GT740 for desktop computers and NVIDIA Geforce GT740M for laptops (or better!).
** We are experimenting with versions for OSX and Windows 10. You are free to try them out however they are not (yet) officially supported.
