On a NVIDIA GeForce MX230 (laptop) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), League of Legends runs at roughly 26 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 23FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA GeForce MX230 (laptop) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and League of Legends is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 26 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.
Across resolutions you can expect around 26 FPS at 1080p and 16 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 9 FPS at 4K. League of Legends doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 23 | 26 |
| 1440p | 14 | 16 |
| 4K | 8 | 9 |
