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 i5-12400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3050 6GB. There is 18% 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 Life is Strange 2 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 6GB with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.

ResolutionNativeDLSS QualityDLSS Performance

1440p415568
4K162330

About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3050 6GB 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.

The RTX 3050 6GB and that processor are well matched in Life is Strange 2: neither clearly holds the other back, so the table figures are a fair reflection of the pair. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.

Frequently asked questions about Life is Strange 2 on the RTX 3050 6GB

How many FPS does the RTX 3050 6GB get in Life is Strange 2 at 1080p?
The RTX 3050 6GB averages 64 FPS in Life is Strange 2 at 1080p on Ultra settings. Dropping to High takes it to around 84 FPS, and Low reaches roughly 142 FPS.
What about 1440p and 4K?
On Ultra, the RTX 3050 6GB manages around 41 FPS at 1440p and around 16 FPS at 4K. Those are native figures: switching on AI upscaling lifts both considerably.
Can the RTX 3050 6GB run Life is Strange 2 at 60 FPS?
Yes. On Ultra settings the RTX 3050 6GB averages above 60 FPS in Life is Strange 2 at 1080p. At higher resolutions you can claw back smoothness by lowering the preset or turning on upscaling.
Do these Life is Strange 2 figures include upscaling or ray tracing?
No. Every FPS figure on this page is native, with no DLSS, FSR or XeSS, and with ray tracing off. The RTX 3050 6GB can do both: upscaling pushes the frame rate up, ray tracing pulls it down.
How many FPS do I gain by turning on DLSS in Life is Strange 2?
At 4K, DLSS on Quality mode takes the RTX 3050 6GB from around 16 native FPS to an estimated 23 FPS. Performance mode goes higher still, at the cost of some image sharpness.
What processor do I need to pair with the RTX 3050 6GB?
The figures on this page assume a Intel Core i5-13400, a mid-range processor that does not bottleneck the card. What matters with the RTX 3050 6GB is that the CPU is not far below it: past that class, moving up a processor barely changes FPS at higher resolutions.
