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 Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 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 Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 doesn't offer it, use the level from the previous table.
| Graphics card | 1080p | 1440p |
|---|---|---|
| GeForce RTX 5070 | High61–84 fps | High + DLSS Balanced58–81 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4070 | High + DLSS Quality71–99 fps | Medium + DLSS Quality60–83 fps |
| Radeon RX 7800 XT | High58–80 fps | High + FSR Balanced57–78 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4060 Ti | High + DLSS Quality56–76 fps | Low + DLSS Quality63–87 fps |
| GeForce RTX 3070 | High + DLSS Quality56–76 fps | Low + DLSS Quality63–87 fps |
| Intel Arc B580 | Medium + XeSS Quality62–86 fps | Low + XeSS Balanced60–84 fps |
| GeForce RTX 4060 | Medium + DLSS Quality60–83 fps | Low + DLSS Balanced58–81 fps |
| Radeon RX 7600 | Medium + FSR Quality59–81 fps | Low + FSR Balanced57–79 fps |
| GeForce RTX 3060 | Medium + DLSS Balanced57–79 fps | Low + DLSS Performance56–78 fps |
| Radeon RX 6600 | Low + FSR Quality64–89 fps | Low + FSR Balancedcapped at 50 fps |
| GeForce GTX 1660 Super | Low + FSR Performance56–78 fps | Low + FSR Qualitycapped at 30 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.

Questions
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at a glance
Which graphics card do I need for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at 1080p?
The publisher recommends: 8 GB VRAM, AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT / Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070. By our conservative estimate, high settings hold 60 frames per second at 1080p with a Radeon RX 7800 XT, and a Radeon RX 7600 gets there with lower settings.
What are the best graphics settings for Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on an RTX 4060?
For 60 frames per second at 1080p, ORION's “Recommended” profile would pick Medium + DLSS Quality settings: between 60 and 83 frames per second according to our conservative estimate.
Can I run Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on an RTX 3060?
By our estimate, a GeForce RTX 3060 runs Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at 1080p on low settings, between 52 and 71 frames per second.
Can I run Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on an RTX 4060?
By our estimate, a GeForce RTX 4060 runs Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 at 1080p on low settings, between 61 and 84 frames per second.
How much RAM does Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 need?
The publisher recommends 16 GB of RAM (minimum: 8 GB).
How much storage does Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 take?

How are these estimates worked out?
The publisher's 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.
