SpaceEngine — requirements, current state and what is inside

This page lists the official minimum and recommended PC requirements for SpaceEngine (released Jun 11, 2019), split into the fields the listing actually states. Everything below is read from the store listing for this app; where a field is missing it is shown as missing rather than filled in.

This site has only been recording for 1 day(s), so there is nothing to compare against yet. No week-on-week figure is shown until there is one.

This is one snapshot taken per day from Steam's public concurrent-player endpoint, kept as a series on this site. Two things it is not: it is not a 24-hour peak (that needs hourly sampling, which this site does not do), and a low number does not mean a game is bad — single-player games are routinely played offline. The comparable question it answers is whether the number is drifting up or down.

Can your machine run it?

This check reads what your browser is willing to report about this device, then compares it field by field against the requirements below. It runs entirely in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere and nothing is stored.

This panel needs JavaScript. With scripts off you can still read every requirement on this page and compare it by hand. When it does run, it prints your own machine next to the game's requirements — nothing more:

It reads: your operating system, whether your system is 64-bit, how much memory your browser reports, your logical core count, and your graphics adapter.
It cannot read: VRAM, CPU model, free disk space, DirectX version or driver version — no website can. Those rows are shown as not readable rather than guessed.
It does not decide. It will not tell you whether the game runs. Side by side, the comparison takes you a second to make; a score would only be a guess dressed up as an answer.

Where the two tiers actually differ

同一个字段在”最低”和”推荐”两档里分别写了什么。这张表由该游戏自己的数据算出来，不是通用模板 —— 别的游戏差别在别的地方。

Field	Minimum	Recommended	Verdict
OS	Windows 10	Windows 10	两档相同
CPU	Intel Core i3-3220T or AMD FX-4100	Intel Core i5-4430 or AMD FX-8350	两档不同
RAM	6 GB RAM	8 GB RAM	两档不同
GPU	GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or Radeon RX 460 (4 GB)	GeForce GTX 1060 (5/6 GB) or Radeon RX 480 (8 GB)	两档不同
Storage	4 GB available space	50 GB available space	两档不同
VR Support	SteamVR or Oculus PC	未标注	仅最低配置标注

What these numbers actually mean

官方最低要 6 GB 内存、推荐 8 GB。最低配置是”能进游戏”，推荐配置才是”不会因为切出浏览器就被系统吃掉显存”。按 8 GB 装机比按 6 GB 稳。
显卡跨度值得注意：最低写的是 GeForce GTX 1050 Ti or Radeon RX 460 (4 GB)，推荐写的是 GeForce GTX 1060 (5/6 GB) or Radeon RX 480 (8 GB)。前者能开起来，后者决定你能否在中高画质下保持流畅 —— 两者之间通常还差一到两个档次的显卡。
该游戏有 4 条配置说明没有按”字段名: 值”的格式书写，因此无法结构化对照 —— 这一项我们保持原样列出，不做推断。

How to read the confidence labels

Label	Meaning
【A】	来自官方接口或商店页面的实测值，不是推算
【B】	本站自己的观测记录（每天记一次，逐日累积）
【C】	由上文实测值推算出来的，规则写在该条旁边

What this page does not tell you

它不预测帧率。官方配置要求是”能否运行”的门槛，不是”运行得多流畅”。
它不评价显卡档次。本页只转述官方写了什么，不把型号换算成一个”性能分”。
它不包含折扣分析。本站的价格记录才开始积累，样本量还不足以支持任何折扣结论。

价格、平台与配置数据由公开商店接口取得（appid 314650），本页由脚本生成、随数据更新；游戏名称与商标归其各自权利人所有，本站与该游戏发行商无关联。

Common questions

Where do the SpaceEngine requirements on this page come from?

They are read from the public store listing for this app (appid 314650) and split into fields. Nothing here is guessed or filled in from a template; if the listing does not state a field, this page says so rather than inventing a value.

Do these requirements say whether I can actually run it well?

No. A minimum spec is the point at which the game launches, not the point at which it is pleasant. Where the listing gives both a minimum and a recommended figure, this page shows both and says what the gap usually costs you.

Does this page show price history?

This site has been recording the price of this app for 1 day(s) so far, counting today. That is not yet enough to say anything about discount patterns, so no pattern is claimed. The record grows by one entry per day.
