System Requirements
	Power Game Factory will function on a variety of Macintosh computers, but its performance varies greatly from one computer model to another. Depending on their content, games made with Power Game Factory may require more system resources than the game creation software itself.
Operating System	Power Game Factory requires Mac OS X. Version 10.2 or above is recommended. Games created with Power Game Factory have the same operating system requirements.
CPU Speed	Power Game Factory requires a computer with a G4 or newer processor running at 800 MHz or faster. Power Game Factory works great on the Mac Mini. Power Game Factory has been successfully tested on computers with G3 processors, but the G3 is not officially supported. CPU speed is an important determinant of performance in games made with Power Game Factory, but the amount of memory and the type of graphics card are also crucial.
Memory	A minimum of 256 megabytes of built-in memory (RAM) is required. Power Game Factory benefits from additional memory; performance increases greatly on computers with 512 megabytes of memory, and the program nears its full potential with about 1 gigabyte of memory. Most games made with Power Game Factory require at least 512 megabytes of memory for peak performance.
Disk Space	Because Power Game Factory can be used to create very large game projects, it is recommended that at least 2 gigabytes of free hard drive space be available prior to installation.
Graphics Hardware	Games made with Power Game Factory benefit from 3D graphics hardware. Because all game graphics are stored in video memory, graphics cards with large amounts of on-board memory are recommended. ATI and nVidia graphics cards with 64 MB of memory or more are required for peak performance.
Content Creation Applications	The sprite graphics used in Power Game Factory can be imported from image editing programs such as Adobe Photoshop. Likewise, music and sound effects can be created in audio editing software before being brought into Power Game Factory. A complete list of recommended content creation applications is available in the Content Creation Applications section.
