Which tier do I need?
2D and learning
2D games, game jams, tutorials and simple 3D with the Compatibility or Mobile renderer. Integrated graphics with Vulkan support are enough; Godot's own minimum is 4 GB RAM, but 16 GB keeps the editor, a browser and an image editor open together.
3D indie
3D projects with the Forward+ renderer, lighting and post-processing, plus C#. Godot recommends dedicated graphics with Vulkan 1.2 (a GTX 1050 class card or better) for a smooth experience; any current RTX 50-series laptop GPU clears that comfortably.
Heavy 3D and fast builds
Large 3D scenes, lightmap baking, shader-heavy work, many export targets and fast iteration. More GPU headroom, 24 GB+ RAM and more CPU cores shorten bake and export times.
