For effective and smooth timing of events we recommed your computer to have at least:
These are not strict requirements but a guideline as you want to be sure to match the capacity of your hardware with the complexity on your events. For example a marathon with 20.000 runners will challenge your hardware much more that a 5k fun run with 200 participants.
BBT is making very limited use of the disk in your computer. Thus, a fast disk (SSD) is preferred over a big disk. However, please note that video recording will require much disk space.
