STALKER 2 Benchmarks
With the voyage to the Zone only 8 days away, Nvidia has finally revealed the performance benchmarks for STALKER 2: Heart of Chornobyl.
The game’s final recommended specs were announced weeks ago, but gamers balked at the 150GB of disk space requirement, which puts it above Call of Duty: Black Ops 6.
STALKER 2 will have Nvidia Reflex and DLSS 3, and the impact of this technology looks very promising.

What about AMD Cards?
According to the developers, using the high settings, a computer with an AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT should be able to get 60 FPS at 1440p.
Breaking past that would require a card equivalent to the RX 7900 XTX, but that upgrade comes with a hefty price tag.
The game will support FSR 3.1 from the start, but it is unclear whether it will use its frame-generation abilities on launch.
