RIGCHECK

FOR LINUX · FREE · OPEN SOURCE

CAN MY PC RUN IT?

rigcheck checks your Steam games against your hardware, and against Linux itself: Proton, anti-cheat, drivers and Vulkan. Before you buy, not after.

The Library: installed Steam games as cover tiles with READY, TOO WEAK and BLOCKED stamps

ONE STAMP PER GAME

Every game gets a verdict, worked out on your own PC.

  • READY

    Meets the recommended specs.

  • LOW

    Meets the minimum; at least one part falls short of recommended.

  • TOO WEAK

    A part is below the minimum, and rigcheck tells you which.

  • BLOCKED

    Won't run on Linux whatever the hardware, like anti-cheat that denies Linux.

  • ???

    Not enough data to say. rigcheck shows the raw text instead of guessing.

IT TELLS YOU WHY

Every game page puts your PC next to the game's requirements and points at the part holding you back.

Baldur's Gate 3

TOO WEAK

Your GPU is below the minimum.

WHAT IT DOES

  • READS YOUR STEAM LIBRARY

    Native, ~/.steam and Flatpak installs, and every library folder, even on other drives. Add your own Steam Web API key to see every game you own.

  • KNOWS YOUR HARDWARE

    CPU, RAM, every GPU by its PCI ID, video memory, Vulkan and the driver, read straight from your system. Hybrid laptops use the discrete GPU.

  • SEARCHES ALL OF STEAM

    Every game on Steam, most popular first. Filter by what your PC can run, ProtonDB tier, native Linux, Deck Verified or anti-cheat.

  • ASKS “WHAT IF?”

    Pick a different GPU or CPU and see which games change verdict before you upgrade.

  • THINKS LINUX

    ProtonDB ratings, anti-cheat that blocks Linux from AreWeAntiCheatYet, Steam Deck status and the Vulkan version Proton needs.

  • WORKS OFFLINE

    The game database is downloaded once and updated in the background. The app tells you when a new version is out.

NOTHING ABOUT YOU LEAVES YOUR PC

No accounts, no telemetry, no servers of our own. These are the only places rigcheck talks to:

  • github.comthe game database and the new-version notice
  • store.steampowered.comgames the database hasn't checked yet
  • shared.akamai.steamstatic.comcover art
  • api.steampowered.comyour owned games, only if you add your own Steam key

This site doesn't track you either: no analytics, no cookies, no third-party fonts.
