Will Ubuntu 18.04 run on i3-4th gen, 1.7ghz with dual core system?

Question

On the Ubuntu website it mentioned system requirements of 2ghz dual core system. Might it still run on my 1.7GHz processor?

Why not try before you install? https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/try-ubuntu-before-you-install#0 — guiverc, Nov 08 '19 at 02:20

Have you considered Xubuntu? The system requirements are very minimal (Xfce is very light) and it is basically Ubuntu behind the scenes. It is recommended to have 1 GB of ram and a dual core processor for Xubuntu.

As previously mentioned, you could make a bootable Ubuntu USB and try it out first before installing.
