Euro Truck Simulator 2 benchmark on GTX 980 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 FPS with a GTX 980 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 46FPS min 40Acceptable | 33FPS min 29Acceptable | 14FPS min 13Unplayable |
| High | 60FPS min 53Good | 42FPS min 37Acceptable | 19FPS min 17Poor |
| Medium | 78FPS min 68Good | 55FPS min 49Acceptable | 24FPS min 21Poor |
| Low | 101FPS min 89Good | 72FPS min 64Good | 32FPS min 29Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 27% | GPU 48% | GPU 77% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 2600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the GTX 980 Ti. There is 12% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
FSR performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Euro Truck Simulator 2 at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the GTX 980 Ti with FSR enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | FSR Quality | FSR Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 46 | 58 | 67 |
| 1440p | 33 | 45 | 54 |
| 4K | 14 | 20 | 26 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The GTX 980 Ti has no dedicated hardware for it, so it is an option best left disabled.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the GTX 980 Ti is what caps the frame rate in Euro Truck Simulator 2. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the GTX 980 Ti Enough for Euro Truck Simulator 2?
The GTX 980 Ti delivers 46 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Euro Truck Simulator 2. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 33 FPS and at 4K 14 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
