GameStrat Laptop Requirements
Ensure that your laptop meets our minimum specifications. Anything below these specifications may result in decreased operating power and poor performance.
You will require at least 1 laptop to run GameStrat. This is what does all the heavy lifting for the entire system. It handles everything from encoding and transferring video to ensuring all iPads maintain a strong connection and receive every video.
You can either use a Mac or Windows 64-bit operating system (we currently do not support Chromebooks). We recommend testing any school or personal computers before making a new purchase.
Our recommended specs for laptops are:
- 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):
