NOTE:
This is NOT a gaming only PC, I use if for compute
and algorithmic workloads.
You can play Star Citizen
on any quad-core, 16GB RAM system,
with an AMD R9 390/RX 580 or Nvidia GTX 1070
(6GB GPUs like the RTX 2060 will be fine too but
ideally you want 8GB VRAM GPUs.
Star Citizen is memory and CPU intensive so being
able to store more textures in the GPU memory will improve performance)

Increase the sysctl option vm.max_map_count to prevent
crashes due to memory allocation limits in areas with
lots of geometry: Note that I am running at 4K so my setting of 2100000000 will be overkill for anyone running 1440p or 1080p
=======================================================

sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf
enter the sysctl option vm.max_map_count

vm.max_map_count = 2100000000

sudo nano /etc/sysctl.d/20-max_map_count.conf
enter the sysctl option vm.max_map_count to prevent crashes due to memory allocation limits in areas with lots of geometry
vm.max_map_count = 2100000000

sudo nano /etc/systemd/system.conf
delete # from the line "DefaultLimitNOFILE" and set value to
DefaultLimitNOFILE=2100000000

sudo nano /etc/systemd/user.conf
delete # from the line "DefaultLimitNOFILE" and set value to
DefaultLimitNOFILE=2100000000

If the virtual memory set is not enough you can temporarily increase this value by entering in a terminal the command
sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=2100000000

Output: vm.max_map_count = 2100000000
more /etc/systemd/system.conf | grep NOFILE
