GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU: FPS benchmarks and laptop guide

"RTX 3070 Laptop GPU" is the explicit laptop-name record for NVIDIA's 2021 performance-mainstream Ampere chip — the same GA104 silicon marketed simply as the RTX 3070 in most gaming laptops. Keeping the naming distinction matters for used buyers: vendors implemented this chip across a wide range of power limits, and records captured under the laptop-specific name reflect those specific implementations. The catalog carries 1080p benchmarks in 160 games for this record and matches 116 laptop models to the chip.

Where the RTX 3070 Laptop GPU sits in 2026

This record scores at 69.6 and ranks 45th of 341 scored mobile GPUs. The neighborhood spans generations: the RTX 4060 Laptop GPU (69.8) just above, NVIDIA's professional RTX A3000 (69.6) alongside, and — the number worth pausing on — the current-generation RTX 5070 (69.6) at exactly the same score, with the RTX A4500 and Radeon RX 6600M just below. A 2021 chip posting level with a 2025 mainstream release is the whole used-market argument for this tier: last generation's performance-mainstream silicon ages into this generation's mainstream price band.

What the chip brings

The record confirms the family architecture — Ampere, 8 nm process, 8 GB of GDDR6 memory and a 125 W-class thermal design — with CUDA and DLSS support carrying the features that matter for longevity: ray-traced rendering plus deep-learning upscaling. Public benchmark results for this record are strong, around 22,100 PassMark points and a Fire Strike score near 31,000, reflecting well-fed implementations of the silicon. The full engineering detail — 5,888 shader cores and 448 GB/s of memory bandwidth on the GA104 die — lives on the chip's spec page.

FPS in games at 1080p

The benchmark table is flagship-adjacent at 1080p. At the high preset: 356 FPS in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, 272 in FIFA 22, 241 in Counter-Strike 2, 240 in CS:GO and Overwatch, 210 in Valorant, 189 in Forza Horizon 4 and 170 in The Witcher 3. Modern titles hold firmly — Diablo 4 at 159 rising to 172 on medium, Forza Horizon 5 at 159, Apex Legends at 143, the Resident Evil 4 remake at 140, Escape from Tarkov at 110, Baldur's Gate 3 at 102 rising to 122 and Cyberpunk 2077 at 119. Even the heaviest ports stay in range: God of War 88, Hogwarts Legacy 72 rising to 88, The Last of Us 72 rising to 82 and Red Dead Redemption 2 at 67 rising to 108 on medium.

Laptops that carry it

The 116-model matched roster is the deepest of any upper-tier GPU in the catalog, spanning 2020–2023 gaming machines. Dell G15 5520 and 5525 units ask $676–$870 at the value end; HP OMEN 16 machines span $971–$1,284 and the OMEN 17 $2,171–$2,726; Alienware x17 R2, M17 R5 and M15 R7 hold the $1,087–$1,339 band; a Gigabyte Aorus 17X appears at $922. Roster medians run to a gaming index of 75 and 49.5 games clearing recommended settings — numbers that say this tier of used laptop still handles a 2026 library without compromise.

Bottom line

Read this record as the vendor-implementation view of the RTX 3070: identical silicon to the chip's other naming record, scored on a different mix of laptops, and the gap between the two rankings is itself the buying lesson — with this GPU generation, the chassis and its power limit matter as much as the name on the sticker. Whichever listing you evaluate, the fundamentals hold: DLSS-equipped Ampere performance, every modern title playable at high settings, and used prices from the mid-$600s. For 1080p gaming in particular, this remains one of the strongest value tiers in the catalog.
