Does the PC with the specs below can run Ubuntu 18.04 LTS 64 bit ?

  • Pentium 4 3.40 GHz, 65 nm Cedar Mill
  • Socket LGA775
  • 2 GB DDR2 RAM
  • 160 GB Hard drive

The min sys req for Ubuntu18.04 LTS require at least 2 GHz processor, but it doesnt say if single-core processors are supported.

It should run OK. I have Ubuntu 18 in a VM with 2 GB of memory, it easily fits in under 50 GB, and I have a 2 core CPU. The post below says OK for 1 core. A number of YES, but try it out comments. The CPU supports 64-bit operating systems

Ubuntu 18 comes in 32-bit if you need to do that.
