- **Memory:** 16 GB RAM
- **Storage:** 128 GB free space
- High-speed solid-state drive strongly recommended
- **Graphics:** Intel integrated graphics processor (IGP) strongly recommended
- Nvidia GPUs may require significant
[troubleshooting](/doc/install-nvidia-driver/)
- AMD GPUs have not been formally tested, but Radeons (especially RX580 and
earlier) generally work well
- **Peripherals:** A non-USB keyboard or multiple USB controllers
- **TPM:** Trusted Platform Module (TPM) with proper BIOS support (required for
[Anti Evil Maid](/doc/anti-evil-maid/))
- **Other:** Satisfaction of all [hardware certification requirements for Qubes
4.x](/news/2016/07/21/new-hw-certification-for-q4/)
The following are *required* for [Qubes-certified hardware
devices](/doc/certified-hardware/) but *merely recommended* for *non-certified*
hardware (see the [hardware certification
requirements](/doc/certified-hardware/#hardware-certification-requirements) for
details).
- Open-source boot firmware (e.g., [coreboot](https://www.coreboot.org/))
- Hardware switches for all built-in USB-connected microphones (if any)
- On non-laptops, either support for non-USB input devices or a separate USB
controller only for input devices
