How the GeForce RTX 3050 compares to the spec
Red Dead Redemption 2’s recommended GPU is the Radeon RX 480 (bench 39). The GeForce RTX 3050 scores 61 — about 56% faster, so you are above the card the developer targeted for 1080p/60. Our own estimate disagrees with that spec sheet here — it puts this card at ~59 FPS, because a recommended spec is a floor the publisher is willing to print, not a measured result. The minimum card, a GeForce GTX 770 (24), you clear by 154%.
What it takes to hit 60 FPS
The lowest-tier card on this list that clears 60 FPS in Red Dead Redemption 2 is the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop at ~61 FPS (+3%).

- Ampere, 2022
- Upscaling
- DLSS
Red Dead Redemption 2 asks for 6GB of video memory at its recommended tier. The GeForce RTX 3050’s 8GB of VRAM covers it, so memory is not your limit here — the frame rate above is.
Red Dead Redemption 2 may support DLSS; where it does, enabling it is usually worth more frames than any single settings change on this card.
