How to get the best frame rate in Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Anniversary Edition

The publisher's minimum for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Anniversary Edition is 256MB Video Card using Shader Model 3 (Nvidia GeForce 8800GT, AMD Radeon 3850 and above) with 2.0Ghz Dual core CPU (any Core 2 Duo or AMD X2 or better), and the recommended hardware is 512MB Video Card using Shader Model 3 (Performance equivalent to an AMD Radeon 5750 or better). We treat the recommended hardware as the setup that holds about 60 fps at 1080p on High.

In our estimates a GeForce GT 730 is about the weakest card that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p, a Radeon R7 250 does the same at 1440p, and a Radeon R9 270 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.
