How little hardware is needed to play Factorio

[Drizzt321]

It's surprising how little hardware you need to play Factorio! For kicks & giggles I decided to install the 32-bit on my Lenovo Thinkpad Table 2 . It's an Atom Z2760 (Clovertrail), 2C4T 1.8GHz turbo (1.5GHz nominal) with PowerVR SGX 545 GPU and 2GB of memory running Windows 8. I can actually walk around fine and its pretty smooth. I think I'll need to turn down all of the details, and I don't know how it'll handle things once things start to get complicated. But hey, it runs!

I personally was mainly having problems because I ran out of Hardrive Space and the Virtual Memory requirements overloaded my pc and blackscreen-crashed it. Since I cleared off some stuff I haven't had that problem, but just something to consider.
