System Requirements
Please verify that your computer meets the minimum requirements before using TeamSpeak 3.

Actual requirements will vary based on your system configuration and the features you use. Processor performance is dependent upon not only the clock frequency of the processor, but the number of cores and the size of the processor cache. Disk space requirements for the system partition are approximate. Additional disk space is required for database storage and log files.
