# What do I need to run GameStrat's Premium Package?

## Before your GameStrat Premium Package arrives, make sure you have the following equipment ready. Everything else is included in your package.

### 1 Laptop — Windows or Mac

Your operating laptop must meet these specs:

- **8GB RAM** or more
- **USB 3.0 port** (or adapter)
- **Gigabit Ethernet port** (or adapter)
- **Processor:** 
    - Windows — Intel or AMD, **i7 or better, 11th generation or newer**. ARM processors are not supported.
    - Mac — **M-series (Apple Silicon)**, November 2022 or newer.
- **Operating system (64-bit):** 
    - Windows 11 or later
    - macOS Monterey 12 or later

### 2 Cameras

Two existing cameras for recording — one for your press box angle and one for your end zone angle. Both need HDMI output set to 1080p (see the [Premium Package Setup](https://support.gamestrat.com/premium-package-setup?hsLang=en) guide).

### Power in the press box and end zone

Both locations need a power source. If your end zone doesn't have outlets, we recommend the [EcoFlow River 2 Pro portable power station](https://us.ecoflow.com/products/river-2-pro-portable-power-station?variant=54320636198985).

### Viewing iPads

Any iPad that can run iPadOS 17 or later — see [GameStrat Compatible iPads](https://support.gamestrat.com/which-ipads-work-with-gamestrat?hsLang=en) for the full chart and buying recommendations.

### Recommended accessories

For spare cables, adapters, and everything else worth having on game day, see our [full list of recommended accessories](https://support.gamestrat.com/recommended-hardware?hsLang=en).
