Can I run it

Can I run Rust?

The short answer

Rust lists AMD Ryzen 5 1400 or Intel Core i5-6600, AMD Radeon RX 470, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or Intel® Arc™ A580 and 12 GB RAM in its Minimum tier. Run the check to compare your machine with those parts, one at a time. It does not predict frame rates.

The check reads what this browser can see (the graphics renderer and, in Chromium browsers, a rounded memory figure) and your last SystemCheck run saved in this browser, if there is one. It sends nothing.

This compares your machine with the listed parts. It does not predict frame rates. There is no overall yes or no: each part is placed on its own.

How we read the listed parts

A printed part is linked to our catalogue only when the names match exactly, or through a short hand-checked list of spellings the publisher used. A name that covers several models, a family, a capability or “or equivalent” is never guessed at. Verified means the catalogue entry's specifications have passed our verification; not yet verified means the part is listed without them.

What a browser cannot know

The check above leaves these out. Each has a quick way to read it yourself on Windows.

  • Your processor model. The browser reports a thread count only, so the check uses the processor you chose for your last SystemCheck run.How to check: Task Manager, Performance, CPU: the model is printed top right. Or Settings, System, About.
  • The exact graphics card and its memory. The name can be masked by the browser, a laptop may show its integrated GPU while games use the discrete one, and video memory is never exposed.How to check: Run dxdiag and open the Display tab, or Task Manager, Performance, GPU, which shows dedicated GPU memory.
  • Installed memory above 8 GB. Browsers that report memory round it and stop at 8.How to check: Task Manager, Performance, Memory: the installed figure is printed top right.
  • Free space and drive type: SSD or hard drive, NVMe. The browser's storage estimate is its own quota, not your disk.How to check: Task Manager, Performance, Disk shows the drive type (SSD or HDD); File Explorer, This PC shows free space.
  • The Windows build and edition. Windows 10 and 11 can look alike to a browser, and the build number is never shown.How to check: Run winver: it prints the version and build. Settings, System, About shows the edition.
  • The driver version, the DirectX version and feature level, and the Shader Model. What a browser can draw is not what DirectX 12 can.How to check: Run dxdiag: the System tab shows the DirectX version, the Display tab the driver and the feature levels.
  • Your frame rate in this game, at any setting.How to check: Only the game can tell you. Steam, Help, System Information lists what the game launcher sees of your hardware.
