On a NVIDIA RTX 4050 (laptop, 6GB) (paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 3 3300X-class CPU), Doom: The Dark Ages runs at roughly 65 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 49FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 4050 (laptop, 6GB) is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Doom: The Dark Ages is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 3 3300X, it runs well at 1080p — about 65 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 49 FPS with everything on High.
Across resolutions you can expect around 65 FPS at 1080p and 60 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 36 FPS at 4K. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Doom: The Dark Ages 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 | 49 | 65 |
| 1440p | 29 | 60 |
| 4K | 16 | 36 |
