What to do

  • The GeForce GTX 1650 has less video memory than this game likes at High settings. Lower texture quality to avoid stutter.
  • The cheapest card in our list that reaches 60 fps on High at 1080p is the Arc B570 (launch price $219).

How Hogwarts Legacy runs on the GeForce GTX 1650

Our estimate puts the GeForce GTX 1650 at about 15 fps on High at 1080p in Hogwarts Legacy, which means it runs only on reduced settings. On Low the same card manages about 41 fps, and on Ultra about 9.

Video memory is the limit here. The 4 GB on this card runs short at High textures, so lower the texture setting first.

For a steady 60 fps, our estimate says: 1080p: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 41 fps on Low; 1440p: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 29 fps on Low; 4K: under 60 fps at every preset, best is 15 fps on Low.

Settings advice

Hogwarts Legacy lists 16 GB of RAM (recommending 16 GB) and a processor of the Intel Core i7-8700 (3.2Ghz) class. Our estimate assumes a processor that does not limit the GeForce GTX 1650, so enter yours in the checker above if it is older than that.

The cheapest card we list that holds 60 fps on High at 1080p is an Arc B570 (launch price $219), and until then upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS, if Hogwarts Legacy offers it) and one resolution step down are the biggest wins.
