The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition on GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU is well above The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition's recommended spec. We estimate ~229 fps at 1080p high (range 183–274, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~160 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 12 GB of video memory covers the 3 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |

| medium | 297 | 208 | 125 |
| high | 229 | 160 | 96 |
| ultra | 183 | 128 | 77 |
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: ultra 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 Ti Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~229 fps: Ryzen 5 3600X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Core i5-2400): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 229.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 5070 Ti Laptop GPU: 12 GB
