On a NVIDIA GTX 1630 (4GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Stellar Blade runs at roughly 45 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 20FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA GTX 1630 (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 playable at 1080p — about 45 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 20 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 45 FPS at 1080p and 27 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 16 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.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 20 | 45 |
| 1440p | 12 | 27 |
| 4K | 7 | 16 |
