Charting software asks less of a computer than most buyers expect. MetaTrader 5 is comfortable in 4 to 8GB of memory, and the TradingView desktop app publishes no graphics-card requirement at all because chart drawing uses the acceleration built into any integrated GPU of the last decade. What a desk does demand is display outputs, memory to hold a wall of browser tabs open for weeks, and a machine that is still running at three in the morning.

So specify backwards from the screens. Count the panels, confirm the graphics card can address that many simultaneously, then size memory around the platforms and tabs rather than around a benchmark. Evetech configures and tests these systems at its Centurion premises and delivers in 1 to 3 business days to the major centres and 3 to 5 days regionally. Nothing on this page influences what a market does; the hardware's only job is to keep your workspace visible and the machine switched on.
