Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 on Radeon RX 6800
Yes. The Radeon RX 6800 meets Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2's recommended spec. We estimate ~73 fps at 1080p high (range 58–88, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~51 fps on high). Its 16 GB of video memory covers the 8 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: high preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: medium preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
AMD card: use FSR in quality mode before dropping the preset (XeSS also works). DLSS is not available on Radeon.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the Radeon RX 6800 back.
- Processor needed for ~73 fps: Ryzen 5 5500 or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 7 5800X): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~73 fps.
Video memory
- Radeon RX 6800: 16 GB
- Minimum spec: 6 GB (+10 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+8 GB headroom)
