Best Pacific Drive settings for the NVIDIA GT 730 (2GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GT 730 (2GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Pacific Drive runs at roughly 9 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 4FPS 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 Pacific Drive is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 9 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 9 FPS at 1080p and 6 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 3 FPS at 4K. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

💡 Pacific Drive: Volumetric Fog is the heaviest setting - the Zone's storms are where FPS dips, so tune for the worst case.
🚀 Biggest free win: enable FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.
Recommended settings
Upscaling — FSRBalanced+55% FPS
