Best S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 settings for the AMD Radeon Vega 7 (iGPU) (2026)

On a AMD Radeon Vega 7 (iGPU) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 3 3300X-class CPU), S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 runs at roughly 22 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 7FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The AMD Radeon Vega 7 (iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 22 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 7 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 22 FPS at 1080p and 13 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 7 FPS at 4K. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A heavy Unreal Engine 5 game - upscaling is practically required at 1440p and above.
Overall QualityLow+18% FPS
The master quality slider. A step from Epic to High frees significant FPS with little visual loss in motion.
Shadow QualityLow+11% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High is the key trade-off point.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Low+10% FPS
Lumen bounce lighting. Heavy; Medium is a big FPS saver for a subtle visual trade.
Foliage QualityLow+8% FPS
Grass and vegetation density across the Zone. A real cost in open areas.
Effects QualityLow+6% FPS
Explosions, fire and anomaly effects. Lowering helps in heavy gunfights.
View DistanceLow+6% FPS
How far the Zone renders at full detail. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Post ProcessingLow+5% FPS
Bloom, depth of field and motion blur. Cheap; set to taste.
Material QualityLow+5% FPS
Surface shading detail on weapons and walls. High is a clean trade.
