Best BeamNG.drive settings for the Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) (2026)
On a Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), BeamNG.drive runs at roughly 66 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 43FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The Intel Arc A370M (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and BeamNG.drive is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 66 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 43 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 66 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 35 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 BeamNG.drive: Soft-body physics is heavily CPU-bound - more vehicles lowers FPS no matter your GPU; Dynamic Reflections is the heaviest graphics setting.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
BeamNG renders below your screen resolution and upscales. A solid GPU-side gain — but remember the physics are CPU-bound, so more vehicles will lower FPS no matter your GPU.
Dynamic ReflectionsMediumbaseline
Live reflections on car bodywork. The heaviest graphics setting in BeamNG — lowering or disabling it is a big FPS gain.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High looks great and runs better than Ultra.
Mesh / Object QualityHighbaseline
World geometry and prop detail. Cheap to lower with mild pop-in on distant scenery.
Lighting QualityHighbaseline
How detailed the dynamic lighting is. Drop it last among the heavy settings — it shapes the overall look.
Ambient OcclusionHighbaseline
Soft contact shadows under cars and objects. Subtle — safe to lower.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface detail — nearly free if it fits your VRAM. Fine at High on most cards.
Depth of Field / Motion BlurOnbaseline
Pure preference and cheap — many players switch these off for a clearer view.
Anisotropic Filtering16xbaseline
Keeps road textures sharp at distance. Effectively free — leave it at 16x.
