RTX 3080 Ti Laptop Specifications
These are the basic specs. The full RTX 3080 Ti Laptop page adds the rest of the technical data and its FPS game by game, not just in Rust.
Which laptops have the RTX 3080 Ti?
One verified model carries it: MSI GE76 Raider. If yours is on the list, the figures on this page are yours.
The same model ships with several different graphics cards. Check the product code on the sticker underneath before trusting the figures. (Affiliate link)

Rust benchmark on RTX 3080 Ti Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Rust FPS with a RTX 3080 Ti Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 117FPS min 77Good | 89FPS min 66Good | 44FPS min 39Acceptable |
| High | 152FPS min 100Excellent | 116FPS min 86Good | 58FPS min 51Acceptable |
| Medium | 198FPS min 130Excellent | 151FPS min 112Excellent | 75FPS min 66Good |
| Low | 257FPS min 168Excellent | 196FPS min 146Excellent | 97FPS min 85Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 37% | CPU 22% | GPU 28% |
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 3080 Ti Laptop. There is 16% 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 Rust 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 Ti Laptop with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 117 | 146 | 170 |
| 1440p | 89 | 120 | 147 |
| 4K | 44 | 64 | 81 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3080 Ti 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 3080 Ti Laptop has headroom to spare in Rust: 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 3080 Ti Laptop Enough for Rust?
The RTX 3080 Ti Laptop delivers 117 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Rust. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 89 FPS and at 4K 44 FPS at Ultra quality.
Want more FPS in Rust?
Our guide collects the settings that give between +40% and +90% FPS in Rust with barely any visual loss. Recommended settings, GPU-specific tips (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel) and solutions to common game issues.
RTX 3080 Ti Laptop or RTX 3070 for Rust?
In Rust at 1080p Ultra both land on the same figure: 117 FPS. Price and power draw are what separate them.
