TonCut has no specific hardware requirements, but the faster the computer, the more variants the software can check in order to find better solutions. While selecting the hardware it is worth noting that the Professional version utilizes all available CPU cores, significantly improving the speed of the cutting optimization process.

The only requirement that needs to be considered refers to the operating system. TonCut 8 is tested on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. In practice this means the software may run under older Windows versions but this is not guaranteed.

TonCut may also run on Mac OS. This, however, requires an application enabling Windows software to be run, such as Parallels Desktop.
