Best Stellar Blade settings for the RTX 4050 Laptop (2026)

On a RTX 4050 Laptop (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Stellar Blade 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 RTX 4050 Laptop is a entry-level graphics card with 6GB of VRAM, and Stellar Blade is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it runs well at 1080p — about 72 FPS with 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 62 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 44 FPS at 4K. With only 6GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Stellar Blade 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.
