On a NVIDIA GTX 1650 Ti (laptop, 4GB) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 3 3300X-class CPU), Black Myth: Wukong runs at roughly 53 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 17FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA GTX 1650 Ti (laptop, 4GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and Black Myth: Wukong is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it is playable at 1080p — about 53 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 17 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 53 FPS at 1080p and 32 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 18 FPS at 4K. Black Myth: Wukong offers ray tracing, but the NVIDIA GTX 1650 Ti (laptop, 4GB) isn't built for it, so we leave it off. With only 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Black Myth: Wukong 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.
