Borderlands 4 benchmark on RTX 3080 Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Borderlands 4 FPS with a RTX 3080 Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 52FPS min 46Acceptable | 42FPS min 37Acceptable | 23FPS min 20Poor |
| High | 67FPS min 59Good | 54FPS min 48Acceptable | 30FPS min 27Acceptable |
| Medium | 88FPS min 77Good | 71FPS min 62Good | 39FPS min 35Acceptable |
| Low | 114FPS min 100Good | 92FPS min 81Good | 50FPS min 44Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | GPU 17% | GPU 33% | GPU 63% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the AMD Ryzen 5 3600 downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3080 Laptop. There is 8% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Borderlands 4 at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 3080 Laptop with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 52 | 65 | 75 |
| 1440p | 42 | 57 | 69 |
| 4K | 23 | 33 | 43 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3080 Laptop does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
Here the graphics card is the brake: the RTX 3080 Laptop is what caps the frame rate in Borderlands 4. A faster processor would hardly change the result.
Is the RTX 3080 Laptop Enough for Borderlands 4?
The RTX 3080 Laptop delivers 52 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Borderlands 4. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 42 FPS and at 4K 23 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
