Looking at laptops and upgrading my desktop pc:
What would be the MINIMUM and also the RECCOMMENDED specs to develop XRIT apps in Unity?
Things like:

  • CPU
  • Graphics Card (AMD or NVIDIA, I traditionally have used NVIDIA but for no particular reason)
  • RAM
  • SSD, M.2, PCIe drives?

Thanks in advance!

Hey @markasuter
The XR Interaction Toolkit package doesn’t require any specific minimum specifications to work (outside of the standard Unity specifications). In terms of recommended specs, since you are developing for XR, your specifications will depend on your target platform, such as PC-based VR vs Quest 1/2(Android).

For PCVR, I would find a similar title in terms of graphics/capability that you are using as a benchmark and check what the minimum specs are for that title and use that as a pathway forward.

As for Quest 1/2, there are some well-documented requirements for running those sorts of titles. If you are planning on running the title over Oculus Link, here is their recommended specs.

In general, the Oculus Link specs seem like a good minimum base-line. In terms of personal preferences, we like SSDs for working on projects, probably 16GB RAM and a decent GPU (at least 980 or above).
