Best Euro Truck Simulator 2 settings for the NVIDIA GT 730 (2GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GT 730 (2GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Euro Truck Simulator 2 runs at roughly 17 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 8FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GT 730 (2GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Euro Truck Simulator 2 is a relatively light game to run. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 17 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 8 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 17 FPS at 1080p and 10 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 6 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Euro Truck Simulator 2: Runs on very modest hardware; Shadows and Mirror Quality are the heavy hitters, and big traffic can be CPU-bound.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
ETS2 has no DLSS, but the Scaling slider sets internal render resolution — the biggest single GPU saving. (Above 100% it supersamples and costs FPS.)
Shadow QualityLow+12% FPS
The heaviest graphics setting in the game. High to Medium is a big FPS gain you barely notice while driving.
Mirror Quality / DistanceLow+10% FPS
Mirrors re-render the world behind you — expensive. Lower them first for a quick win.
Grass / Vegetation DensityLow+7% FPS
Roadside grass and foliage amount. Medium is fine and helps on long highway stretches.
Reflection DetailLow+6% FPS
Reflections on your cab and wet roads. Subtle at speed — a safe trim.
Texture QualityHighbaseline
Surface sharpness — nearly free if it fits your VRAM.
