System requirements

The recommended system requirements for running the Nimbus beacon node are:

What Recommended
Operating system Linux 64-bit, Windows 64-bit, macOS X 10.15+
Memory 4GB
Disk space 200GB
Network Reliable broadband

!!! note "Execution client" In addtion to the beacon node, you will need to run an execution client - check the documentation of the client of choice and add them to the above requirements.

Broadly, to run both an execution and a consensus client on the same machine, we recommend a **2 TB** SSD drive and **8** GB RAM.

!!! note "Minimal requirements" Nimbus has been optimized to also run well on hardware significantly less powerful than the recommended system requirements - the more validators you run on the same node, the more hardware resources and network bandwidth will it will use.
