Quick Reference for Recruitment Team
This document is a standalone reference for verifying whether a moderator candidate’s hardware meets the minimum requirements for the Streaming Platform Moderator position.
Use it during calls or messenger conversations when a candidate provides their hardware specifications.
Use this section for a fast yes/no decision before looking up exact models in the full tables.
If the candidate has Intel Core i5/i7 12th gen+ or Ryzen 5/7 5000-series+ with an RTX 3060+ and 100+ Mbps wired internet — they are compatible. No need to look up individual models.
If the candidate uses a MacBook, Intel Pentium/Celeron, Intel Xeon, or AMD FX — they are not eligible. No further hardware check needed.

If the candidate’s processor falls into any of the categories below, they cannot work as a moderator. Their hardware does not meet the minimum requirements.
| Processor Family | Details | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| AMD FX | All models (FX-4100, FX-6300, FX-8350, etc.) | Outdated architecture, insufficient single-thread performance |
| Intel Xeon | All models (server/workstation processors) | Server-grade, not optimized for streaming workloads |
| Intel Pentium | All models (Gold, Silver, etc.) | Insufficient processing power for simultaneous OBS + streaming |
| Intel Celeron | All models | Budget tier, cannot handle streaming software requirements |
| MacBook processors | Apple M1, M2, M3, Intel-based MacBooks | macOS is not compatible with required streaming software configuration |
If a candidate has an incompatible processor, politely explain: “Unfortunately, your current hardware configuration does not meet the minimum requirements for this position. We recommend upgrading your processor if you’re interested in future opportunities.”
| Series 10 (GTX) | Series 16 (GTX) | Series 20 (RTX) | Series 30 (RTX) | Series 40 (RTX) | Series 50 (RTX) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

GTX 1630 GTX 1650 GTX 1650 Super GTX 1660 GTX 1660 Super GTX 1660 Ti |
RTX 2060 RTX 2060 Super RTX 2070 RTX 2070 Super RTX 2080 RTX 2080 Super RTX 2080 Ti |
RTX 3050 RTX 3060 RTX 3060 Ti RTX 3070 RTX 3070 Ti RTX 3080 RTX 3080 Ti RTX 3090 RTX 3090 Ti |
RTX 4050 RTX 4060 RTX 4060 Ti RTX 4070 RTX 4070 Super RTX 4070 Ti RTX 4070 Ti Super RTX 4080 RTX 4080 Super RTX 4090 |

If a listed model has a Ti or SUPER variant, that variant is also compatible. Example: GTX 1650 (listed) → GTX 1650 Ti, GTX 1650 SUPER → both compatible.
GTX 1060 3GB is NOT compatible — only the 6GB version meets requirements. If the candidate mentions “GTX 1060”, always confirm the VRAM amount.
AMD GPUs released from 2019 onwards are accepted. This includes:
AMD GPUs older than 2019 (RX 400 series, RX 500 series, Vega series, and older) are not compatible.
100 Mbps download speed (measured via speedtest.net).
Ask the candidate to run a speed test during the call/conversation and share the result (number or screenshot).
Ask whether the candidate can upgrade their internet plan or switch to a wired connection. If improvement is possible within 1 week, the candidate may still qualify.
Candidates do not need to install these before the interview. All setup is done during the paid training period.
