💡 Hogwarts Legacy: Hogsmeade is a known CPU/streaming stutter spot.

At 1080p expect around 81 FPS, at 1440p about 66 FPS, and at 4K roughly 60 FPS with optimized settings. With only 8GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. Hogwarts Legacy doesn't use upscaling, so the gains come from trimming the heaviest settings.
