[2019] Computer Advice

I recommend at least the following, you might be able to get by with less depending on what you are doing: 32GB RAM 8+ core processor Decent GPU: If you can play ARK with it, it's should be fine 500GB SSD specifically for the devkit: This might be a tough one for a laptop, but the devkit take over 100GB of space just on initial installation and it gets much bigger as you make mods. You can install the devkit on an HDD if the SSD is prohibitive, but be aware that it's going to mean vastly longer loading times for everything.
