How Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 runs on the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

Our estimate puts the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB at about 18 fps on High at 1080p in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, which means it runs only on reduced settings. On Low the same card manages about 34 fps, and on Ultra about 10.

The graphics card is the limit here, so lowering the resolution or the quality preset is what raises your frame rate.

For a steady 60 fps, our estimate says: 1080p: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 34 fps on Low; 1440p: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 24 fps on Low; 4K: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 13 fps on Low.

Settings advice

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 lists 8 GB of RAM (recommending 16 GB) and a processor of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X class. Our estimate assumes a processor that does not limit the GeForce GTX 1060 6GB, so enter yours in the checker above if it is older than that.

The cheapest card we list that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p is a Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB (launch price $299), and until then upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS, if Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 offers it) and one resolution step down are the biggest wins.
