Sid Meier's Civilization VI benchmark on RTX 3050 Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Sid Meier's Civilization VI FPS with a RTX 3050 Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 96FPS min 63Good | 56FPS min 49Acceptable | 21FPS min 19Poor |
| High | 125FPS min 83Excellent | 73FPS min 64Good | 27FPS min 24Poor |
| Medium | 164FPS min 108Excellent | 96FPS min 84Good | 36FPS min 32Acceptable |
| Low | 212FPS min 140Excellent | 124FPS min 108Excellent | 46FPS min 41Acceptable |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 36% | balanced | GPU 66% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3050 Laptop. There is 34% 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 Sid Meier's Civilization VI 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 3050 Laptop with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 96 | 120 | 139 |
| 1440p | 56 | 76 | 92 |
| 4K | 21 | 30 | 39 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3050 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.
With that CPU, the RTX 3050 Laptop has headroom to spare in Sid Meier's Civilization VI: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RTX 3050 Laptop Enough for Sid Meier's Civilization VI?
The RTX 3050 Laptop delivers 96 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Sid Meier's Civilization VI. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 56 FPS and at 4K 21 FPS at Ultra quality.
