Minimal specs mean minimum configuration where VRC Pro can be started but frame rate can be insufficient.
For good experience it should be as close to recommended configuration as possible (or better).
The graphics settings can be changed to achieve higher performance (frame rate) at cost of graphics quality. A
minimum performance of 60 frames per second is recommended.

Operating system
Windows XP SP3, Vista, Windows 7 and 8 are supported. VRC PRO may also run on MAC using Apples’ Boot
Camp Windows emulating software, but VRI does not provide any technical support to MAC users.
Monitor
You need a good monitor with minimum resolution of 1280x1024 pixels and a response time of 5 msec or
faster. All resolutions are supported. A 24’ or 27’ HD 1920x1080 is recommended. Triple monitors are
supported by VRC Pro, but this requires a high-end graphics card.
