On a NVIDIA GTX 1650 (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 3 3300X-class CPU), A Plague Tale: Requiem runs at roughly 55 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 25FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA GTX 1650 (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and A Plague Tale: Requiem is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it is playable at 1080p — about 55 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 25 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 55 FPS at 1080p and 34 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 19 FPS at 4K. A Plague Tale: Requiem offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1650 (laptop, 4GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in A Plague Tale: Requiem 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 | 25 | 55 |
| 1440p | 15 | 34 |
| 4K | 8 | 19 |
