Can you run Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege? PC requirements and settings
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege, by Ubisoft Montreal (Action), came out on Steam on December 1, 2015.
Here are the official specs, and what they mean on the most common graphics cards.
Publisher's recommended cardNVIDIA RTX 2060 6GB / AMD RX 6600 8GB
Minimum cardNvidia GTX 1650 4GB / AMD RX 5500XT 4GB / Intel ARC A380 6GB
Recommended RAM8 GB
Our conservative estimate60 fps at 1080p, high settings, with a GeForce RTX 3060
Estimate per graphics card
Which settings to aim for with your card
For each card: the highest settings level that stays smooth, and the expected frame-rate
range. This is a conservative estimate worked out from the publisher's recommended specs, not a
measurement: your processor, drivers and game updates move it.
Without DLSS, FSR or frame generation: turning them on raises the frame rate noticeably
when the game offers them.
Best settings
Best graphics settings for Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege by graphics card
The setting ORION's “Recommended” profile would pick to play at 60 frames per second: the
best-looking detail level that stays smooth, with upscaling when it lets you go one step up (DLSS
on GeForce RTX, XeSS on Intel Arc, FSR on other cards). If Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege doesn't offer it, use the
level from the previous table.
| Graphics card | 1080p | 1440p |
| GeForce RTX 5070 | High117–161 fps | High76–104 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4070 | High102–141 fps | High66–91 fps |
| Radeon RX 7800 XT | High111–153 fps | High72–99 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4060 Ti | High80–110 fps | High + DLSS Quality70–95 fps |
| GeForce RTX 3070 | High80–110 fps | High + DLSS Quality70–95 fps |
| Intel Arc B580 | High68–94 fps | High + XeSS Quality59–82 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4060 | High66–91 fps | High + DLSS Quality58–79 fps |
| Radeon RX 7600 | High64–89 fps | High + FSR Quality56–76 fps |
| GeForce RTX 3060 | High56–78 fps | Medium + DLSS Quality64–89 fps |
| Radeon RX 6600 | High + FSR Quality70–97 fps | Medium + FSR Quality59–82 fps |
| GeForce GTX 1660 Super | Medium + FSR Quality63–87 fps | Low + FSR Quality55–76 fps |
At these levels, ORION keeps textures on high from 8 GB of video memory (they cost memory,
hardly any frames), sets the frame cap on the target for steady pacing, turns off motion blur and
film grain, and leaves vertical sync off. This is a conservative estimate, not a measurement: in
ORION, the first measured session corrects the setting.

recommended specs are the reference point (about 60 frames per second at 1080p on high
settings, unless the publisher says otherwise). Each card's power is compared with the
recommended card (the average when the publisher names several), then adjusted to the screen
resolution. A low margin is kept, and less video memory than recommended drops one level.
