Baldur's Gate 3 on GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU meets Baldur's Gate 3's recommended spec. We estimate ~88 fps at 1080p high (range 70–106, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the high preset (~62 fps on high). Its 12 GB of video memory covers the 8 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: high preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: low preset
NVIDIA RTX card: turn on DLSS in quality mode before dropping the preset; FSR and XeSS also work if the game lacks DLSS.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~88 fps: Ryzen 5 3600 or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700K): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~88 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 5070 Laptop GPU: 12 GB
- Minimum spec: 4 GB (+8 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 8 GB (+4 GB headroom)
