Hogwarts Legacy on GeForce RTX 3070
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3070 meets Hogwarts Legacy's recommended spec. We estimate ~77 fps at 1080p high (range 61–92, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the medium preset (~54 fps on high). Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 4 GB the game requires at minimum. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 130 | 91 | 55 |
| medium | 100 | 70 | 42 |
| high | 77 | 54 | 32 |
| ultra | 61 | 43 | 26 |
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: medium preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
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 3070 back.
- Processor needed for ~77 fps: Core i5-9400F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-8700): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~77 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3070: 8 GB
- Minimum spec: 4 GB (+4 GB headroom)
