    Can I run Helldivers 2 on a laptop?

    Laptop graphics chips are slower than desktop cards with the same name, so check the laptop version of your chip in the checker above. Here is how common laptop graphics handle it:

    • Intel Iris Xe (integrated): No, below minimum
    • Radeon 780M (integrated): Yes, playable, about 45 FPS on Low at 1080p
    • RTX 3050 Laptop (4GB): Yes, playable, about 70 FPS on Low at 1080p

    • RTX 4060 Laptop (8GB): Yes, runs well, about 70 FPS on High at 1080p

    How to get better FPS

    • Update your graphics driver before you play. New drivers often fix stutter in recent games. See how to update GPU drivers.
    • Turn on upscaling (DLSS, FSR or XeSS) if the game supports it. It gives a big FPS boost on mid-range cards.
    • Lower the shadows and volumetric effects first. They cost a lot of FPS but change the look the least.
    • Close background apps, especially with 8 GB of RAM, and keep your PC cool. Check temperatures with our CPU temperature guide.
    • If your CPU or GPU holds you back, use the bottleneck calculator to see which part to upgrade first.
