	'''System requirements''' help you prepare a computer for [[World of Warcraft: Forever]]. The following summary comes from both platform tabs of Blizzard Support article 386366.<ref name="requirements">Blizzard Support, [https://us.support.blizzard.com/en/help/article/386366 World of Warcraft: Forever System Requirements].

	Blizzard lists macOS 12, Apple M2 or ninth-generation Intel Coffee Lake, 8 GB RAM, and 128 GB free SSD space as minimums. Its recommended configuration lists macOS 15, Apple M4, and 16 GB RAM. The GPU row mixes Metal, chip, and memory wording; consult the original table for that qualification.<ref name="requirements" />		Blizzard lists macOS 12, Apple M2 or ninth-generation Intel Coffee Lake, 8 GB RAM, and 128 GB free SSD space as minimums.

			== GPU compatibility floor ==
			Blizzard's 17 September notice identifies three oldest supported graphics architectures: '''AMD Graphics Core Next 1''', '''NVIDIA Maxwell''', and '''Intel Skylake'''. It connects this restriction to the new renderer's RGBA16F UAV support in compute shaders.<ref name="gpu">Blizzard Entertainment, [https://news.blizzard.com/en-us/article/24301512/world-of-warcraft-forever-gpu-requirements World of Warcraft: Forever GPU Requirements], 17 September 2026. Original article read 20 September 2026.</ref>

			'''Architecture compatibility alone does not meet the game's minimum specifications.''' Blizzard lists the GTX 750/750 Ti and Intel HD Graphics 530 as compatible examples below its minimum requirements; the GTX 760/770/780 and Intel HD Graphics 6000 are unsupported examples. A larger model number therefore does not establish support.<ref name="gpu" /> Compare your exact GPU with both this notice and the full requirements above.

			On Windows, check the adapter name under '''Device Manager → Display adapters''', or '''Settings → System → Display → Advanced display'''.<ref name="gpu" /> For dated beta crash reports and their evidence limits, see [[Beta known issues]].

== Prepare your installation ==
Use [[Game access]] to check account eligibility. After installation, [[User interface and accessibility]] explains announced display and control options. A visual preset is not evidence that an unsupported computer becomes supported, and minimum specifications do not promise a particular frame rate.
