About FL Studio

FL Studio is CPU- and latency-bound rather than GPU-bound. The graphics card is irrelevant; what matters is single-thread CPU performance, low-latency audio drivers (ASIO) and enough RAM for large sample libraries.

What PC do I need for FL Studio?

For a comfortable experience, the publisher's recommended specification asks for the following. This is their figure, not our estimate.

Not sure how your parts compare? Run the check above or read what these tiers mean.

Can my laptop run FL Studio?

The same check applies — enter the parts your laptop actually contains. Be aware that a laptop graphics chip is usually slower than the desktop card it shares a name with, because the manufacturer sets a lower power limit. A laptop advertising the Not required named here may therefore fall somewhat short of it in practice, and sustained performance drops further as the machine heats up. Treat a borderline laptop result as optimistic rather than assured.
