The NVIDIA RTX 3050 (laptop, 6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it runs well at 1080p — about 63 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 25 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 63 FPS at 1080p and 50 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 29 FPS at 4K. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Assassin’s Creed Shadows 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.
