Euro Truck Simulator 2 benchmark on RTX 4080: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Euro Truck Simulator 2 FPS with a RTX 4080 and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 229FPS min 122Excellent | 198FPS min 114Excellent | 136FPS min 92Excellent |
| High | 298FPS min 159Excellent | 257FPS min 148Excellent | 177FPS min 120Excellent |
| Medium | 390FPS min 208Excellent | 336FPS min 193Excellent | 232FPS min 157Excellent |
| Low | 500FPS min 267Excellent | 435FPS min 250Excellent | 300FPS min 204Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 58% | CPU 51% | CPU 33% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 4080. There is 8% 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.
DLSS 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 RTX 4080 with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 229 | 286 | 332 | 486 |
| 1440p | 198 | 267 | 327 | 454 |
| 4K | 136 | 197 | 252 | 335 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 4080 does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
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.
With that CPU, the RTX 4080 has headroom to spare in Euro Truck Simulator 2: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help.
Is the RTX 4080 Enough for Euro Truck Simulator 2?
The RTX 4080 delivers 229 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Euro Truck Simulator 2. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 198 FPS and at 4K 136 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
