MKG Workstation System Requirements

General requirements

When purchasing a new workstation, we recommend always using the most recent processor technology. Due to the rapid development of software, applications increasingly require more performance from the processor. The minimum requirement for a processor is currently Intel i3 technology. If you want to install the MKG Client software on an existing workstation, the requirements below also apply.

Memory

The minimum amount of RAM for the operating systems listed below is 4 GB, but 8 GB is recommended. The average memory usage of the MKG Client is 512 MB. This can increase when using multiple modules or when running reports.

Harddisk

The minimum amount of free space on the system partition must be 4 GB. The installation of the MKG Client takes approximately 1 GB.

Operating system

We currently support the following operating systems:

• Windows 10 Professional, 64 bit.
• Windows 11 Professional, 64 bit.

Network

The network must support a minimum speed of 100 Mbit. A speed of 1 Gbps is recommended. In addition, the following basic settings are necessary:

• TCP/IP (Version 4).
• DNS V4 record available to MKG server.
• An internet connection is required to obtain support.

The following outbound rules apply in the firewall solution:

• TCP, 443, application: MKG appserver based on HTTPS protocol (when using the MKG Cloud).
• TCP, 8080 or 8443, application: MKG appserver based on HTTP(S) protocol (when using an on-premise server).

Screen

We recommend a screen with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, with the dpi set to 100%. For workstations that need to run the MKG Planning modules, we recommend larger screen diagonals with higher resolutions. Multiple screens (dual screen) are supported. A graphics chip/video card with support for DirectX 11 (or higher) is required.

Additional components

The following components must be installed or enabled prior to installing the MKG software:

• Microsoft .NET 4.8
