Can a NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 run EVE Online?
The NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 clears the minimum bar for EVE Online but sits under the recommended spec. It is playable at around 7 FPS at 1080p on high, and you will get a smoother result on the low preset.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.
How the NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 measures up
| Requirement | NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 | Minimum | Recommended | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU performance score | 2 | 15 | Minimum | |

Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the low preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.
At 1440p
Around 5 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 5 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
VRAM headroom
At 2GB you are under the 4GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 7 FPS at 1080p, 5 FPS at 1440p and 5 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the low preset at 1080p.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
