Best Farming Simulator 25 settings for the Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Ivy Bridge iGPU) (2026)

On a Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Ivy Bridge iGPU) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Farming Simulator 25 runs at roughly 10 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 5FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Ivy Bridge iGPU) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Farming Simulator 25 is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 10 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.

Across resolutions you can expect around 10 FPS at 1080p and 6 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 3 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Farming Simulator 25: Adds DLSS/FSR over FS22; Foliage/Tessellation is still the heaviest setting and big farms can be CPU-bound.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS
Farming Simulator 25 added DLSS and FSR — the biggest GPU lever, especially at 1440p/4K.
Foliage / TessellationLow+12% FPS
Crop and grass density plus ground tessellation — the heaviest setting on big fields. High is a strong step down from Ultra.
Shadow QualityLow+10% FPS
Shadow resolution and range. High looks close to Ultra while running faster.
View DistanceLow+8% FPS
How far the world and AI traffic render — partly a CPU cost. Medium is a safe trim.
Reflection QualityLow+6% FPS
Reflections on cab glass and water — subtle while working, so a cheap trim.
Texture QualityUltra-1% FPS
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
