Universe Sandbox System Requirements FAQ

Can I run Universe Sandbox on a low-end PC?
If your PC meets the minimum requirements (2 GHz Dual Core, 1 GB Dedicated Video Memory, 4 GB RAM), you should be able to run Universe Sandbox, but performance may be limited, especially with complex simulations. Expect lower frame rates and potentially longer loading times.
What GPU do I need for Universe Sandbox?
At a minimum, you need a GPU with 1 GB of dedicated video memory. For a smoother experience, especially with larger simulations and higher graphics settings, a GPU with 4 GB of dedicated video memory is recommended.
How much RAM does Universe Sandbox need?
Universe Sandbox requires at least 4 GB of RAM to run. However, 8 GB of RAM is recommended for smoother performance, particularly when running complex simulations with many objects.
Will Universe Sandbox run on integrated graphics?
While technically possible if your integrated graphics meet the minimum 1GB dedicated VRAM, performance may be significantly degraded. You'll likely need to lower the graphics settings and reduce the complexity of your simulations to achieve playable frame rates. A dedicated graphics card is highly recommended for a better experience.
What is the best graphics settings for Universe Sandbox?
The best graphics settings depend on your hardware. If you meet the recommended specs, you can likely run the game on high settings. If you're closer to the minimum specs, start with low settings and gradually increase them until you find a balance between visual quality and performance. Pay attention to simulation speed and frame rate as you adjust settings.
