The NVIDIA GTX 1650 (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Saros is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it runs well at 1080p — about 62 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 28 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 62 FPS at 1080p and 39 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 22 FPS at 4K. Saros offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1650 (laptop, 4GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. The biggest free win is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
