Can the AMD Radeon Vega 7 (iGPU) run S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2? (2026)

❌ Not really

~23 FPS at 1080p with optimized settings

The AMD Radeon Vega 7 (iGPU) is a entry-level card with 2GB 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 a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 23 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 7 FPS with everything on High.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	7	23
1440p	4	14
4K	2	8

💡 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 FSR (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

At 1080p expect around 23 FPS, at 1440p about 14 FPS, and at 4K roughly 8 FPS with optimized settings. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
