Red Dead Redemption 2 on GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU is well above Red Dead Redemption 2's recommended spec. We estimate ~122 fps at 1080p high (range 98–147, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~86 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 6 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 208 | 145 | 87 |
| medium | 159 | 111 | 67 |
| high | 122 | 86 | 51 |
| ultra | 98 | 68 | 41 |
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 3070 Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~122 fps: Ryzen 3 3300X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-4770K): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 122.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU: 8 GB
- Minimum spec: 2 GB (+6 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 6 GB (+2 GB headroom)
Cheapest upgrade for each target
Slowest current desktop card (2020+) that reaches each target in Red Dead Redemption 2; usually the cheapest.
