Abstract

Gaming is now available for a full range of PC hardware configurations and there is a need for a simple-to-use tool for checking game compatibility. In this project, we have developed a Game Compatibility Website, a client-side web application that seeks to determine if the hardware of a user can run some games efficiently. This system was developed in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Users can input their CPU, GPU and RAM specs, select a game (currently Fortnite, GTA 5 and Cyberpunk 2077) and select a resolution (1080p, 1440p or 4K). It then matches these inputs to the predefined system requirements and suggests a preset setting (Low, Medium or High) and FPS estimates. This is an excellent tool for gamers to use. This offline-enabled website is a lightweight, user-friendly alternative to existing tools, requiring no internet connection or software installation. The project is based on a structured methodology with design, development and manual testing with different hardware configurations to ensure reliability and usability. Future upgrades could bring automatic hardware recognition and a bigger game library, making it more useful to gamers.
