Euro Truck Simulator 2 on GeForce GTX 650 Ti

Meets minimumEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes, at lower settings. The GeForce GTX 650 Ti meets Euro Truck Simulator 2's minimum spec but not the recommended one. We estimate ~33 fps at 1080p low (range 26–39, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. 60 fps at 1080p is out of reach. Its 1 GB of video memory is below the 2 GB the game recommends. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the Radeon RX 9050 4GB (~70 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.

This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 650 Ti back.
Processor needed for ~33 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i5-9600K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~19 fps.

Video memory

GeForce GTX 650 Ti: 1 GB
