Mobile phone

Any recent mid-range or higher Android device should meet these specifications.
Steam Deck
Valve's testing indicates that VRChat is Verified on Steam Deck. It is fully functional on Steam Deck, and works great with the built-in controls and display.
- All functionality is accessible when using the default controller configuration.
- VRChat shows Steam Deck controller icons.
- In-game interface text is legible on Steam Deck.
- VRChat's default graphics configuration performs well on Steam Deck.
PC
minimum
- CPU: Intel® i5-4570k or AMD FX 8350 or equivalent
- Memory: 4GB
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 970 or AMD Radeon™ R9 290 or equivalent
- Disk Space: 21.5GB of storage (~1.5GB for application, 20GB minimum cache size)
- Internet Connection: 25Mbps download speed
- OS: Windows 10, Windows 11
These are the absolute minimum requirements to run VRChat on desktop mode. Although the application will run, you may encounter performance issues. VRChat has lots of user-created content, some avatars and worlds may cause your performance to drop more than you might expect from a typical game! It is recommended adjusting Safety Settings for the most optimal experience.
One can download the Are you ready for Valve Index? application to see if their device is compatible with running VRChat in VR mode.
recommended
- CPU: AMD 5800X3D or 7800X3D, or 12th Generation Intel® i5, or equivalent
- Memory: 32GB
- GPU: NVIDIA GeForce® RTX 3060 12GB or equivalent
- Disk Space: 21.5GB of storage (~1.5GB for application, 20GB minimum cache size)
- Internet Connection: 100Mbps download speed
- OS: Windows 10, Windows 11
For your CPU, you'd want to get a 7800X3D, as AMD swapped to a new socket (AM5) with this generation. The AMD X3D series of processors perform unusually well in VRChat and other games due to their very large onboard cache. As for the GPU, aiming for the graphics card with the most VRAM available is best.

To log in to a VRChat account, you must first register on VRChat's website. Creating a VRChat account will grant you access to the VRChat application, a web version of your VRChat profile, friend list, browse worlds, and generate impostors. You will also be able to access VRChat's Software Development Kit, Feedback Forums, Ask Forums, enroll in the Creator Economy Program, and edit the VRChat Wiki.

After merging your account, choosing to log into the device account will transfer your login to the VRChat account.
Learning how to use VRChat
When you log into VRChat, you’ll start in a private Home world! Here, you can explore at your own pace to learn the controls, adjust settings, find your first avatar, and go to your next world! The default Home world is the VRChat Home, a welcoming place to begin your session. You can choose to go back to your private Home instance at any time by opening up the Quick Menu, and choosing the Go Home tile.
When meeting another user in VRChat, you can open up your Quick Menu, and learn more information about a user. To do this in VR, point the laser in your off-hand at them. A capsule will appear, and you click the trigger button to bring open a separate menu. On desktop, you can either click the Select User tile, or hold the Shift key and hover over the capsule. Use the left mouse button to open the new menu. On mobile, simply tap on the user to bring open the menu.
On any device, you can also open the Quick Menu, and click on the Here tab, which looks like a GPS pin. The Here tab will bring open a list of users in the same instance as you! From here, you can read their biography, request to add them as a friend, change their microphone volume, mute them, hide their avatar, clone their avatar if available, or block them.
