On a NVIDIA GeForce MX230 (laptop) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Rocket League runs at roughly 20 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 14FPS 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 Rocket League is a lightweight, high-frame-rate esports title. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 20 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 20 FPS at 1080p and 12 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 7 FPS at 4K. Rocket League doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings below.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 14 | 20 |
| 1440p | 9 | 12 |
| 4K | 5 | 7 |
