The publisher's minimum for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 is 6 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 580 / Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 with AMD Ryzen 5 2600X / Intel Core i5-8600K, and the recommended hardware is 8 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070. We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.
In our estimates a GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a GeForce RTX 4070 Super does the same at 1440p, and a GeForce RTX 5090 at 4K. Cards below that can still play the game, at Medium or Low.
In competitive games frame rate and low latency matter more than looks. Use Low or Medium shadows and effects, keep textures as high as your video memory allows, and aim to stay above your monitor's refresh rate.

The highest quality preset that still holds 60 fps. Estimates with a processor that does not limit the card.
Minimum 8 GB, recommended 16 GB. 16 GB is the comfortable amount for current games.
A processor like the Core i5-12600K meets the recommended CPU level. For many fps in fast games, a quick CPU matters as much as the graphics card. Check your pairing.
Minimum: AMD Ryzen 5 2600X / Intel Core i5-8600K, 6 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 580 / Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060, 8 GB of memory, 75 GB of free storage.
Recommended: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X / Intel Core i7-12700, 8 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070, 16 GB of memory.
In our estimate a GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 16GB is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, and a GeForce RTX 4070 Super for 1440p.
The minimum is 8 GB and the recommendation is 16 GB. With less than the minimum the game may not start or will stutter badly.
