    I can get 40-50 FPS on JRI everything maxed out... 50-70 if I lower dynamic reflections.

    You want to kill a graphics card, try Skyrim with ENB maxed out, 4K textures, and vegetation mods. I got ~20FPS when I tried that. ENB in Bethesda games in general is shit, even FO3 runs like crap with it.
    GTA IV on the other hand, runs surprisingly well and looks great, I could max out everything and get 60+FPS.

    They dual boot Windows 10 and Ubuntu. They are not networked and we have full admin/super user access with no noticeable content filtering on the web connection.

    So yeah, I reckon that they will run BeamNG pretty damn well. But I enjoy having full admin so I wouldn't want to abuse it by installing BeamNG.
