The Forest benchmark on RTX 3060 Laptop: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
The Forest FPS with a RTX 3060 Laptop and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 129FPS min 82Excellent | 83FPS min 63Good | 34FPS min 30Acceptable |
| High | 168FPS min 106Excellent | 107FPS min 81Good | 44FPS min 39Acceptable |
| Medium | 219FPS min 138Excellent | 141FPS min 107Excellent | 58FPS min 51Acceptable |
| Low | 284FPS min 180Excellent | 182FPS min 138Excellent | 75FPS min 66Good |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 41% | CPU 19% | GPU 45% |
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 3060 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 The Forest 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 3060 Laptop with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 129 | 161 | 187 |
| 1440p | 83 | 112 | 137 |
| 4K | 34 | 49 | 63 |
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 3060 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 3060 Laptop has headroom to spare in The Forest: 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 3060 Laptop Enough for The Forest?
The RTX 3060 Laptop delivers 129 FPS at 1080p Ultra in The Forest. More than enough for 144Hz. You can comfortably play at 1440p.
At 1440p it gets 83 FPS and at 4K 34 FPS at Ultra quality.
This GPU is more than enough — you can play at 1440p or 4K comfortably
