Schedule 1 system requirements

To run the Schedule 1 requirements, you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 GPU, an Intel Core i5-1300F CPU, 8GB of RAM, and 8GB of HDD or SSD space.

As with many indie simulator-esque titles, the Schedule 1 PC requirements are incredibly low, and easily met by just about any PC or laptop that's less than five-years-old. Of course, there are some higher graphics settings, but you don't need the best hardware on the planet to get the smoothest experience in your in-game drug lab.

The Schedule 1 minimum requirements only require an AMD Radeon RX 580 graphics card, paired with a processor on par with the Intel Core i5-1300F, and 8GB of RAM. You really don't need more than this to get the game running well, but better hardware could reduce lag for when multiple in-game objects are flying through the air, or your weed operation reaches a certain size. 

So, to get the best performance and meet the Schedule 1 recommended specs, you'll need an AMD Radeon RX 6700 or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU, a 3GHz CPU, and 16GB of RAM. Overall, this isn't a particularly difficult demand to meet, though older devices might struggle on the RAM requirement more than the GPU demand.
