System Specifications

Tygron's products utilize gaming technology as their driving force, most notably the 3D visualisation. This technology does mean a computer must meet certain requirements to be able to run Tygron products. Below the recommended 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 www.videocardbenchmark.net or determined with the System Test software.)
Screen resolution 1024 x 768 pixels or higher
Operating system Windows 7, 8
Browser Google Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer 9 and higher versions that support Java Plugin version 8 and provide sufficient start-up rights.

Note: The application can also run on systems with lower hardware specifications with a minimum of OpenGL 2.0 support for the videocard. 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!).

Hardware test

To verify that a system is able to run the Tygron Engine, we have offer the Tygron Hardware 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.

When this test is performed you can choose to send the results to Tygron automatically. This is automatically done for scores of ‘LOW’ or ‘UNKNOWN’. Scores of ‘MEDIUM’ or ‘HIGH’ are recommended for a proper experience.
