Palworld on GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU meets Palworld's recommended spec. We estimate ~61 fps at 1080p high (range 49–73, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1440p, use the low preset (~43 fps on high). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 104 | 73 | 44 |
| medium | 79 | 55 | 33 |
| high | 61 | 43 | 26 |
| ultra | 49 | 34 | 20 |
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: high preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: low 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 3080 Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~61 fps: Ryzen 3 3300X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-12400): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~61 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU: 16 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
