Best The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered settings for the RTX 3050 Laptop (2026)

On a RTX 3050 Laptop (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered runs at roughly 61 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 28FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The RTX 3050 Laptop is a entry-level graphics card with 4GB of VRAM, and The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 61 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 28 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 61 FPS at 1080p and 43 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 24 FPS at 4K. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered supports ray tracing and the RTX 3050 Laptop 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 4GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered 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.
