This computer hardware provides top end graphics. The GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile will easily meet recommended system requirements of games released today. This is a strong benchmarker on modern games and can often return excellent frame rates at high and ultra 1080p. But the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile can also run 1440p pc system requirements.

Capable of running games with up to a DirectX 12 requirement.

Here we take a closer look at the various performances across 1080p, 1440p and 4K screen resolutions for the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile. In particular this is looking at the Ultra graphics settings to see what sort of FPS this graphics card can get across some of the more popular games played in 2023. This card runs recommended graphics requirements of 990 games from the top 1000 most demanding games being played today.

With 1080p being the most common gaming resolution at the moment we explored how well the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile can run Grand Theft Auto VI at 1080p and predict it will return reasonable frame rates at the following graphics settings - Low: 156 FPS, Medium: 123 FPS, High: 83 FPS and Ultra: 59 FPS. For performance contrast we can see that Forza Horizon 5 returns a good 64 FPS at Ultra 1080p.

With PC gamers looking for larger screen sizes like 1440p we tested the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile by researching Grand Theft Auto VI leading us to predict a reasonable performance. Its FPS predictions for the graphics settings are as follows - L: 119FPS, M: 94FPS, H: 63FPS, U: 45FPS. Another popular game we tested with this card was Forza Horizon 5 and that was reasonable. This graphics card delivered 48 FPS at Ultra 1440p. Another popular title was Days Gone which gets good results with a 63FPS on Ultra 1440p. 1440p gaming on the GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile is capable of delivering a solid gaming experience across larger screen sized monitors.
