Space Marines 2 graphcis issues
howdy all. i'll start with my specs then go from there
AMD Ryzen 9 3900x 12 core
Raedon RX 6500 xt
x570 Taichi motherboard
32 gb ram
seagate firecuda 520 ssd

The problem ive been facing so far is that i cant run it higher than low without enemies, intractable objects, weapons/moveable ornaments on the character not loading in. and even on low it still happens. i'll have to tab in and out and some random textures will load in and or just disappear entirely. im runnning it on native, borderless, and all low settings. when i go to change the custom preset to anything above low it says i dont have enough video storage for it. but the thing is if i change the preset back and forth all textures and resources will load in but will be smudgy and or just deformed and missing pieces ( like statues or consoles, missing heads, looks low poly and crushed down) im just not sure what to do. on low settings pvp is bearable and runs smooth just looks bad (i'll still be missing weapons and sometimes the enemies dont pop in which forces me to watch the ground for the dust particles that activate when movement occurs. i cant shoot them because they arent loaded in but i can for some reason melee them. in campaign the swarms wont load in without it being on medium graphics settings and even then i still have to tab in and out hoping for enemies to load in. im just at a loss. do i need to upgrade or should i just wait for patches to drop and hope it fixes it? its downloaded on to my ssd and i know the graphics card i have is known for high cpu usage but this game just absolutely chugs on it, from launch to close its 99%.

That is a terrible graphics card that barely meets the min requirements. The minimum requirements are for playing "30 FPS in 1920x1080 with "Low" preset." It is even telling you that you don't have enough vram to run it higher(i assume you have the 6gb version as i don't get these messages with an 8gb card). While there might be performance patches coming, in your case it is already working as advertised.

You could try upping the gfx preset while lowering the resolution/using a more aggressive FSR setting or upgrading your card.

How fast is your internet connection?

Because I noticed that textures start to disappear when I start downloading on Steam.

I checked resource usage and it turns out that I have a spare RAM and VRAM. The processor handles it nicely but the internet is maxed out.

Based on this, the game probably loads textures on an ongoing basis during the operation from the server. This would be an unnecessary solution...
first off, how do you check your system for what its made out of?
I've ran into a similar issue where the blue counter thing disappears, the guns and chain-sword disappear, and even some of the enemies disappear.

All I do know is that I have an:
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 laptop GPU
also my CPU is a:
11t Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 11400H @2.70GHz,
Both of which I found on my task manager

Bad news for you, your GPU is about scoring the same on videocardbenchmark. Laptop gpus bearing the same names as their desktop counterparts for about 50% of their horsepower is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I know, but you have a ~GTX 1060 card equivalent, which was a low mid tier card in 2016.

Gotcha so what your saying is I can't really play this game on the current laptop I have?

Try CPU-Z will give you detailed info on the Cpu, motherboard model, gpu, and whats in the memory slots. theres also GPU-Z for more detailed gpu info and monitoring.
okay that's an app I download?

I downloaded the CPU-Z, what exactly should I be looking for?

That's correct and to get enough power to play this with the system you currently have, you'd be better off buying a console and the game, which would be cheaper in the long run. PC gaming is expensive to get started.

Okay, never played on Console before, would it be better to get an actual computer with
a tower and monitor?

Desktop is 100% better than laptop.
