Each instance of BlueStacks, which includes the main instance, requires at least 1 processor core and 2 GB of RAM. There IS a little math involved but it’s all very easy math to deal with. Who wouldn’t like to be able to pay their bills and still play their favorite video games?īut the real idea behind this is that IF BlueStacks 4 can “hold it together” on an “older n slower” PC setup, just imagine what it can do on a monster gaming PC! Not everyone has those deep pockets to afford high end video cards and/or top of the line motherboards and processors. So naturally just about anything can run smoothly no matter what you throw at it! Now consider the idea that not everyone can afford a monster gaming PC. The idea is that anyone could have a monster of a gaming PC. However, after considering all other aspects, it was decided to use a much “lower n slower” PC to test us out. The initial thought was to use a monster gaming PC to test BlueStacks 4. The Hardware Setup Used: PC Specifications So we at BlueStacks decided to pick real gamers to run long usage tests on the new BlueStacks 4 to find out how it fared and share the results for the benefit of the larger android gaming community if anything interesting showed up. And you most most definitely don’t want to play on a platform that just fails when used for a longer duration. You don’t want to play on a platform which makes a speed claim that it can’t hold. The same goes for the games/apps we play on the Platform. You won’t want to play on a platform that will just crash over and over seemingly without reason. That’s because those are the most important aspects of BlueStacks performance in general.


This is all in good fun but it leaves a question, exactly how reliable is BlueStacks 4 (BS4)? That question is again broken down into the parts mentioned in the title, namely, Stability, Speed and Endurance. Read our detailed Blogpost about BlueStacks 4 performance here. The newly launched BS4 has proven to be a whopping 6x faster than any mobile device on Earth. The speed advantage comes in the fact that even “lower n slower” PC systems are still much stronger compared to many Android devices. You’d be surprised how many find using a keyboard and mouse combination much more comfortable. This allows you to configure your keyboard and/or mouse to be used to simulate taps on the screen. There’s a key mapper built into BlueStacks. Even on a smaller notebook PC, you’ll most likely have a much bigger screen to play on compared to most Android mobile devices. This allows you to run android apps/games directly on your PC at any given time. As most know, BlueStacks is the leading ‘Android for PC’ gaming platform.
