On a NVIDIA RTX 5050 (laptop, 8GB) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop)-class CPU), Ghost of Tsushima runs at roughly 73 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 74FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.
The NVIDIA RTX 5050 (laptop, 8GB) is a mainstream 1080p graphics card with 8GB of VRAM, and Ghost of Tsushima is a moderately demanding game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-13500H (laptop), it runs well at 1080p — about 73 FPSwith FrameCoach's optimized settings. That already clears a smooth frame rate on High, so our tuning keeps the visuals as high as possible instead of chasing extra frames.
Across resolutions you can expect around 73 FPS at 1080p and 68 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 62 FPS at 4K. 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 | 74 | 73 |
| 1440p | 44 | 68 |
| 4K | 25 | 62 |
