Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at a glance
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is an action game that came out on PC on September 9, 2024. The recommended graphics listed by the Steam store page: 8 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070. It asks for 16 GB of RAM (minimum 8 GB).
Our estimate: the minimum for a steady 60 FPS at 1080p High is an RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, and an RX 480 (older card) holds around 30 FPS on Low. That card is still sold new, so it is also the one we suggest buying. The game is heavy on the processor; a Core i5-13400F or better keeps up with 60 FPS. On basic Intel UHD 630 graphics expect only about 3 FPS on Low, so a dedicated graphics card makes a big difference.
