1.4. Memory Recommendations

A full installation of the Intel Quartus Prime Standard Edition software requires up to 40 GB of available disk space.
Intel recommends that your system be configured to provide virtual memory equal to the recommended physical RAM that is required to process your design.

Note:

Peak virtual memory might exceed these recommendations. These recommendations are based on the amount of physical memory required to achieve runtime within 10% of that achieved on hardware with an infinite amount of RAM.

Table 1.

Memory Requirements for Processing Designs
These requirements are the same for both Windows and Linux installations.
