Best S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 settings for the Intel Arc A750 (2026)

On a Intel Arc A750 (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 runs at roughly 64 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 48FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel Arc A750 is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB 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 Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 64 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 48 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 64 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 54 FPS at 4K. With only 8GB 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 XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heavy Unreal Engine 5 game — upscaling is basically required at 1440p and up.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Quality) — about +35% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSQuality+35% FPS
Supports DLSS, FSR and XeSS. A heavy Unreal Engine 5 game - upscaling is practically required at 1440p and above.
Texture QualityEpic-1% FPS
Surface sharpness. Heavy on VRAM - High is safe on 8-10GB cards.
Overall QualityHighbaseline
The master quality slider. A step from Epic to High frees significant FPS with little visual loss in motion.
Shadow QualityHighbaseline
Shadow resolution and range. High is the key trade-off point.
Global Illumination (Lumen)Highbaseline
Lumen bounce lighting. Heavy; Medium is a big FPS saver for a subtle visual trade.
ReflectionsHighbaseline
Lumen reflections on water, glass and metal. High is a clean step below Epic.
Vegetation QualityHighbaseline
Grass and vegetation density across the Zone. A real cost in open areas.
Effects QualityHighbaseline
Explosions, fire and anomaly effects. Lowering helps in heavy gunfights.
Environment Draw DistanceHighbaseline
How far the Zone renders at full detail. Mild pop-in when lowered.
Post ProcessingHighbaseline
Bloom, depth of field and motion blur. Cheap; set to taste.
MaterialsHighbaseline
Surface shading detail on weapons and walls. High is a clean trade.
Anti-AliasingHighbaseline
Edge smoothing. Medium/High keeps the gritty world clean cheaply.
