The current Steam page lists Windows 10 64-bit and requires 30 GB of available storage. Minimum hardware is 8 GB RAM with a Ryzen 5 first generation or Intel Core i5 seventh generation and an RX 580 4GB or GTX 1060 6GB. Recommended hardware is 16 GB RAM with a Ryzen 5 third generation or Intel Core i5 tenth generation and an RX 5700 XT 8GB or RTX 2070 8GB.
Minimum specification
Use the minimum row as an eligibility floor, not a performance promise. Check the operating system, processor generation, memory, graphics card and free storage together.
Recommended specification
The recommended row doubles memory to 16 GB and raises the CPU/GPU tier. It is the safer target for a busy renovation scene, but the store page does not state an FPS target or resolution.
Scope warnings
The page lists Windows only. Native macOS/Linux support, Proton, Steam Deck, controller behavior and ultrawide presentation were not verified. Do not infer them from a GPU equivalent or a community comment.
Interpret the CPU and GPU rows
The minimum and recommended lines are pairs, not a guarantee that any one component produces a fixed result. Check the processor generation, memory and graphics memory together. Keep at least the listed storage free before installation and leave additional headroom for updates when possible.
Report a useful benchmark
Name the build, operating system, resolution, graphics preset, upscaling setting if any, scene and frame-rate observation. Include whether the result came from the Demo or base game. A report that omits those fields cannot establish a general performance fix.
Keep compatibility separate
A Windows requirement is not a native Linux or macOS statement. Proton and Steam Deck results are platform tests, not store metadata. Add them only after a reproducible run with the exact version and settings.
Source: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3167920/LowBudget_Repairs/ (checked 2026-08-09). Exact performance needs a released build and reproducible settings.
Use the requirements responsibly
Close background applications, keep the game on a drive with the stated free space and compare a performance report with the official minimum and recommended rows. Record resolution, quality preset and build when reporting a result. A card that meets the minimum GPU line may still need lower settings, while a recommended card is not a guaranteed frame-rate target.
Recheck after release
The game is still coming soon on the audit date. Revisit this page after launch and after major patches. Update only the official rows when the Steam page changes, and keep community benchmarks labelled with their hardware and settings.
Check before installing
Confirm that Windows 10 64-bit is available, that the listed CPU and GPU class is present, and that at least 30 GB is free. Keep extra space for updates and avoid using a benchmark from the separate Demo as proof of base-game performance.
What the table cannot answer
The official requirements do not state an FPS target, graphics preset, loading time, controller layout or Steam Deck rating. A guide may list those fields as pending tests, but it must not fill them with a guess or a result from a different game.
When a benchmark becomes available, publish the exact hardware and settings with it. One machine’s result should inform troubleshooting, not replace the official requirements table.
Readers can then compare their setup without confusing an anecdote with a guarantee.
Keep the official table as the stable reference point.
That keeps the page accurate while the release build and later patches provide the missing performance evidence.
For example, a later benchmark should state whether it used the Demo or base game, whether the machine was close to minimum or recommended hardware, and which visual settings were active. If the same result cannot be repeated, keep it as a single observation with a warning instead of turning it into a troubleshooting rule. This protects readers from spending money on an upgrade that the evidence does not actually justify.
