| − | =Recommended Hardware Configuration= | |
| − | * Memory: more than '''4GB''' (8 or more is recommended).
| |
| − | * Display: a minimum resolution of '''1024 by 768''' (1280 by 1024 or better is recommended).
| |
| − | * '''Dedicated''' graphics hardware and memory (1GB is recommended).
| |
| − | * Many computations in Slicer are multi-threaded and will benefit from multi core, multi CPU configurations.
| |
| − | * Interface device: a three button mouse with scroll wheel is recommended. For other devices, see [[Documentation/4.0/SlicerApplication/MouseandKeyboardShortcuts#Rotate.2C_Zoom.2C_Pan|this guide]].

| − | =32 bit versus 64 bit=
| |
| − | Note that many clinical research tasks, such as processing of large CT or MR volumetric datasets, require more memory than can be accommodated with a 32 bit program. We advise the use of the 64 bit versions of the Slicer wherever feasible.
