Grand Theft Auto V Legacy on GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU is well above Grand Theft Auto V Legacy's recommended spec. We estimate ~120 fps at 1080p high (range 96–144, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~84 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 6 GB of video memory covers the 2 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 204 | 143 | 86 |
| medium | 156 | 109 | 66 |
| high | 120 | 84 | 50 |
| ultra | 96 | 67 | 40 |
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: ultra preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: medium 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 3050 Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~120 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-3470): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 120.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3050 Laptop GPU: 6 GB
- Minimum spec: 1 GB (+5 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 2 GB (+4 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Grand Theft Auto V Legacy; usually the cheapest.
