No Man's Sky: System requirements for PC in check

No Man's Sky is experiencing its second spring in 2019. The space survival game has evolved with numerous major patches and is riding high. PC players can find out the system requirements from us.

More power welcome: No Man's Sky needs computing power for world generation.

No Man's Sky is also available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. However, the PC community is particularly popular solely because of the mods.

No Man's Sky: System requirements officially only vaguely stated

The system requirements of No Man's Sky unfortunately read somewhat incomplete. Thus, the developer Hello Games only states the minimum requirements:

• CPU: Intel Core i3
• Graphics card: GeForce GTX 480 / AMD Radeon 7870
• Memory: 8 GB RAM

It is also noted that a 64-bit system is required. It should also be noted that these requirements are from the 2016 release. Generally, a lot of processing power in No Man's Sky won't hurt, since the calculation of the worlds can be quite resource-heavy. Strong components like an Intel Core i7-8700K are therefore welcome.Basically, it is advisable to adjust the video and graphics options, such as the viewing distance and the build distance. The frame rate can make big leaps as a result and a smoother gaming experience becomes possible.
