    If you have a PC, you could upgrade your RAM to 16gb and slap in a GTX 1060 or 1070. That would allow you to run it at high settings at maybe 50-60 FPS.

    I would suggest at least a ryzen 5, 16gb of DDR4 RAM, and an RTX 1660ti or better.

    I don't think you can get DDR4 RAM in anything below 4 (or 8?) GB in a single stick

    Also, which Ryzen 5 is it exactly?

    I use a 1060 6gb and can get high with 60fps... just with one car and with dynamic reflection on medium.

    its good enough tbh.

    also using an i7-8750h and 16gb of ddr4 2666mhz ram

    Depends on the map, with a 1060 , Intel i5, & 8 GB of RAM, I can run 6 cars in Gridmap easily. But can't run West Coast, USA at anything higher than 20 fps.

    CPU is gonna be more of a limiting factor for beam than the GPU, especially if you wanna play with traffic. any recent i7 or ryzen above 5 will do well, and a 1060 at least.

    CPUs are the limiting factor for anything over a 1060/1070.
