    So I'm looking for a new graphics card. How well would something like a GTX 760 2GB run BeamNG?

    Help is always appreciated.

    That's a very old graphics card.
    The minimum requirements for the game are stated here:
    Radeon HD 7750 / Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti
    So technically it'll be able to run beam.
    You'll just have to accept that it won't be able to go higher than Low without lagging.

    Thanks. I'm used to the Lowest Graphics settings, so 50\60 FPS Low Graphics settings would be fine.

    What about a AMD Radeon RX 560?

    GTX 760 is pretty vintage. If you can go for an RTX 3060 Ti if you are able to find one in stock. The price to performance is so insane being faster than an RTX 2070 S and same level of performance of an RTX 2080 S for only 400 bucks!

    I'm manly looking for used cards right now, as I can't really afford any decent new cards. The RTX 3060-Ti would really bottleneck my CPU:p

    What's your cpu? I could help you find a good gpu if you tell me what your cpu is.

    I saw one going for sale pretty cheap, but it got sold almost instantly.

    yeah they are pretty popular. Hopefully you get ahold of one, mine runs the game on max settings perfectly.

    Another decent looking used card that I found is a AMD R9 280. How well do you think it would work?

    I have a I3 3220. Sorry if my posts got a bit messed up. The BeamNG forum can be tricky to use sometimes.

    I did some research. The best gpu for a Core i3-3220 is a GTX 950. Hope you can find one cheap. :)

    Thanks. What's the wattage of those cards? Because I only have a 400W power supply.

    Also this gpu is still good for 1080p gaming although you may not be running it on the highest settings, you should still be satisfied with its performance.

    I'm happy with 720P Low.
    That's good because I thought those older Nvidia cards used a lot of power. I'm sorry again if my posts have been messed up.

    A GTX 1050 is also a good choice for i3-3220 although it could cause a bottleneck because i3-3220 is not a very powerful cpu for gaming.

    Yeah, that's a decent card. Someday I want to upgrade my CPU to a I5 3450.
