Life is Strange 2 benchmark on RTX 3050 Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Life is Strange 2 FPS with a RTX 3050 Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 58FPS min 50Acceptable | 35FPS min 31Acceptable | 13FPS min 12Unplayable |
| High | 76FPS min 66Good | 45FPS min 40Acceptable | 16FPS min 14Poor |
| Medium | 99FPS min 86Good | 59FPS min 52Acceptable | 22FPS min 20Poor |
| Low | 128FPS min 111Excellent | 77FPS min 68Good | 28FPS min 25Poor |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | balanced | GPU 44% | GPU 80% |
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 i5-10400F downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 3050 Laptop. There is 14% 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 Laptop with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 58 | 73 | 84 |
| 1440p | 35 | 47 | 58 |
| 4K | 13 | 19 | 24 |
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.
The RTX 3050 Laptop 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.
Is the RTX 3050 Laptop Enough for Life is Strange 2?
The RTX 3050 Laptop delivers 58 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Life is Strange 2. Performance is acceptable but not ideal. Consider lowering the resolution or quality.
At 1440p it gets 35 FPS and at 4K 13 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU does not reach 60 FPS at 1080p Ultra
