On a NVIDIA RTX 2070 (laptop, 8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), The Callisto Protocol runs at roughly 72 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 54FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 2070 (laptop, 8GB) is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and The Callisto Protocol is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 72 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 54 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 72 FPS at 1080p and 61 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 41 FPS at 4K. The Callisto Protocol supports ray tracing and the NVIDIA RTX 2070 (laptop, 8GB) can technically run it, but it's the single most expensive option here — we keep it off to hit a smooth frame rate and suggest turning it on only if you have frames to spare. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in The Callisto Protocol at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is DLSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 54 | 72 |
| 1440p | 32 | 61 |
| 4K | 18 | 41 |

With FrameCoach's optimized balanced settings, the NVIDIA RTX 2070 (laptop, 8GB) averages around 72 FPS at 1080p in The Callisto Protocol — up from about 54 FPS with everything on High.
At 1440p with optimized settings, the NVIDIA RTX 2070 (laptop, 8GB) averages roughly 61 FPS in The Callisto Protocol — a smooth experience.
Turn on DLSS (Quality), keep ray tracing off for maximum FPS, and ease the heaviest options like Shadow Quality and Screen Space Reflections down a notch. The full per-setting breakdown is above.
FPS figures are estimates from a generalized model (hardware tier × game load × per-setting weights), not live benchmarks — real performance varies by scene, drivers and game version.
