Windows 7 RC is about to release publicly on May 5th, 2009 and will be available on official Windows 7 site for download. But by that time Microsoft has now released minimum system requirements details, which you must have to test Windows 7 RC.

The list of requirements you would need to run Windows 7 is not much high:

  • 1GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor
  • 1GB of RAM for 32-bit & 2GB of RAM for 64-bit processor
  • 16GB of disk space for 32-bit or 20GB for 64-bit users
  • DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver

Though this is the minimum requirements for Windows 7 but if you want to run Windows XP Mode, which lets you run Windows XP softwares then you’ll need 2GB RAM and 15GB of extra disk space.
