Discussion Specs for Rimworld

I really wanna buy Rimworld but my laptop is only core i3 with UHD Graphics 620 and 4GB ram. I think it could handle the vanilla but not with the mods and I would like to know how its works for ya guys. I really like to play with mods since I saw some cool ones in playthroughs. Also think I need to buy a better laptop?

 

check https://www.systemrequirementslab.com/cyri/ if you can run it. If you can't run on recommended and can only run on minimum, chances are you won't be able to enjoy the mods.

 

My crappy laptop w 3gb ram and 2Ghz CPU could handle it.
But expect it to chug along mid - late game with 10+ Pawn and massive infestation.
Also i'm a vanilla player and rarely use mod except the Quality of Life mod type and "children and pregnancy" mod

 

You can probably play it vanilla on normal or small maps but the mods you want will probably be the performance improvement ones.

 

Thank ya for this! Gonna check it up.

 

Am actually just tempted to use mods like that. I mean its obvious I won't be able to use mods like zombieland and the like.

 

Aye, I saw some mods for that. Thank ya!

 

Just saw the vanilla mods. Think I can use some of the vanilla expanded mods?

 

Get a few of the performance enchancing ones first and then add other mods a couple at a time. You'll know when your computer is struggling and you can remove some at that point.

 

I bought myself a driver booster. Hopefully that helps with running all vanilla expanded mods (the only ones I would like anyways, hopefully its not all lol). Thank ya for the tip!
