Stalker 2 PERFORMANCE | Is your System READY for it? PC Benchmarks & System Requirements

[@TheGameSenseiYT]

On what hardware are you going to play Stalker 2?? I luckily upgraded recently to an i9-13900K and an RTX 4090. I'm ready.

[@jezusrodriguez6266]

How much do you think performance will hinge on CPU and RAM? I have an i7 8700 and 16gb ram with a 4070ti, hoping for 90fps at 1440p with optimized graphics settings. Will DLSS save me?

[@chrissncrossn6770]

Have 7500F and 7800xt. Hope i can play 1440p. Next problem is: can i run the game on linux

[@Tekloiddnb]

3070 TUF and i7 10700k 32 gb ram and ssd hope its enough for 1440p :P

AMD Ryzen 7 5800x, 32 GB RAM dual channel, M.2 NVMe SSD, RTX 2080 Super in 1440p. I hope my PC will be able to run and capture the game in OBS. Im not ready to spend 800-1000 Euro for new GPU :-D. I dont need the best graphics but it would be nice if it look decent. Still, games looked amazing 4 years ago so i think that it will be fine.

No I'm not ready. I've bought a 3080 laptop 1.5 years ago. I paid 2 thousand euros for it. This game will run at medium 60 FPS on it. This is what I get for my money. Videogames.

Keep in mind all gameplay videos, are made with 14900K+4090+32Gb DDR5 6000 ram. And even with said setup, game used DLSS. Plus it's UE5 game. As much as i love S.T.A.L.K.E.R series, this time i will wait at least a month, watching gameplays to see about optimization(s).

Upgrade your ram you only get 7.5 available from 16 gigs and most games need over over that to run well. Check it out you probably have ddr5 so just check what sticks you have and get the 32 gig version

If I'm just looking for 1080p at 60fps, I should be okay with my i7-12000H and RTX 3060, right? I'm not looking to play on high, just medium. I'll probably even sacrifice some shadows in the settings if possible, I don't have the keenest eyes for the smallest details. I just want 60 fps.

[@Yooman1337]

Take in mind that the requirements that are out now used upscaling so with that said dont expect this game to be optimized its UE5 after all

[@TheGameSenseiYT]

Take in mind it‘s with max. settings - wich means features like nanite and lumen active wich are inherently hardware hungry. I suppose the game is pretty optimized. there just is hardly any hardware on the market, that can run that stuff properly.

[@agamer2680]

I wonder if my asus rog ally z1 extreme will be able to play this game. I sold my xbox series x and bought the ally instead because i dont have as much time. I have a ps5 i use to remote play currently remote playing dragons dogma 2. But i rarely play on tv. So I wonder how can I play this masterpiece if I only have asus rog ally and ps5. Will it be out on cloud on gamepass ?? Geforce now isn't that quiet expensive? You have to buy the game and subscription? That will almost be the same price as a used series s. Maybe I'm wrong there. Cus more I hear about the system requirements more I feel I won't be able to play on my ally. Except with geforce now subscription and ofcourse buying the game.

[@TheGameSenseiYT]

I don‘t think handhelds will be able to / get a dedicated, optimized version to play the game. as for cloud gaming: haven’t heard anything on geforce now. you should always check first, if they even support the game. xbox cloud SHOULD work. better double check with the xbox store

seems like with the ram requirement this game will struggle on the steam deck :( I wonder what the performance will be on 30 series cards since they can use DLSS but not frame gen (i have a 3060ti hope it runs well)

[@Finnishguy777]

You can literally use frame generation with RTX3000 series cards too , it has already been confirmed that FSR3.1 frame gen is also in the game and it is possible to use it with literally all GPU models "You'll also have a choice of Nvidia DLSS or AMD FSR 3.1 upscaling, with further potential framerate-juicing from DLSS 3 and FSR 3.1 frame generation." - copy paste from from last night's rock paper shotgun article , besides that, I read somewhere yesterday, although I don't remember where I read it, but anyway those nvidia benchmarks were apparently done with the previous drivers, not the new ones that came out yesterday, also keeping the graphics settings only in the max position is, to say the least, questionable benchmarking, couldn't it have been tested with low and medium settings as well, wouldn't have demanded too much from nvidia, at least I trust that I can get reasonable FPS readings in the game, taking into account that so far almost every game made in Unreal 5 that I've played has run steadily at at least 70-100fps

[@dreskine]

you will be good in medium high setting with just dlss. Your gpu is faster than 4060 wich got 40 fps in max setting without frame gen, so in medium-high it's good

[@dmsellers]

@ True about fsr 3.1 but it ain’t as good as nvidia frame gen and is more unstable (atleast from my experience). Hopefully stalker 2 is good with it tho!
