Best Stellar Blade settings for the NVIDIA GTX 1050 (laptop, 4GB) (2026)

On a NVIDIA GTX 1050 (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Stellar Blade runs at roughly 39 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 16FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The NVIDIA GTX 1050 (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Stellar Blade is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 39 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 16 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 39 FPS at 1080p and 24 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 13 FPS at 4K. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Stellar Blade at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
