The NVIDIA GeForce MX230 (laptop) is a entry-level card with 2GB of VRAM, and Mafia: The Old Country is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU it averages about 10 FPS at 1080p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 4 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 4 | 10 |
| 1440p | 2 | 6 |
| 4K | 1 | 4 |
At 1080p expect around 10 FPS, at 1440p about 6 FPS, and at 4K roughly 4 FPS with optimized settings. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
