| In the address bar, type:''' www.blender.org''' and hit the '''Enter ''' key.

|This should take you to the official '''blender''' website.

| For ease of demonstration, I have already loaded the '''System Requirements''' page.

| ''' Blender''' is Free and '''Open Source'''.

|'''Blender 2.59''' works on nearly all operating systems.  

|For this tutorial, I am using '''Windows XP''' operating system.

|  Different parts of '''Blender''' are dependent on different pieces of computer hardware.

| A faster CPU and more RAM can help to increase rendering speed while the speed of the Blender interface, viewports and real-time engine is influenced by the speed of the graphics card.  

| '''Minimum''', '''Good''' and '''Production''' levels.

|  The '''Minimum''' hardware specifications required to run Blender are –  

| '''1 GHZ Single Core CPU'''

|01:53

| '''1024 x 768 pixels Display''' with '''16 bit color'''

|'''3 Button Mouse'''

| '''Open GL Graphics Card''' with 64 MB RAM

| The '''Good''' specifications level includes –  

|''' 1920 x 1200 pixels Display''' with '''24 bit color'''

| '''Open GL Graphics Card''' with '''256 or 512 MB RAM'''

| '''Production''' level hardware specifications will be –

| ''' 8-16 GB RAM'''

| Two times '''1920 x 1200 pixels Display''' with '''24 bit color'''

| '''Open GL Graphics Card''' with '''1 GB RAM, ATI FireGL''' or '''Nvidia Quadro'''

|  To make sure you meet any one of the specified levels, you need to check your '''system configuration'''.

| Minimize your '''browser window'''.

|  So, here you can see the current specifications of your machine and compare it against what the '''Blender Foundation''' suggests.  

| Most '''Windows Operating systems''' are either '''32-bit''' or '''64-bit'''. I am using''' 32-bit Windows'''.

| The terms '''32-bit''' and '''64-bit''' refer to the way the CPU handles information.  

|  Also, if you are planning to invest in a new computer for Blender,

| it would be a good idea to check out this article over at '''www.blenderguru .com/the-ultimate-guide-to-buying-a- computer-for-blender'''.  

| This '''guide''' gives you detailed information about Operating system,  

|  So, that completes the tutorial on the '''Hardware Requirements''' for running '''Blender'''.
