NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti vs Console performance in Hogwarts Legacy
Important Notes on Console FPS Display
On this page, the console modes are mapped in the graphs as follows: 'Performance' = LOW, 'Fidelity' = MED, and 'Ray Tracing' = HIGH. However, please note that visual quality may vary between console models due to differences in rendering resolution. On consoles, Ray Tracing cannot be toggled independently (and is unavailable on the Series S and last-gen consoles). Additionally, while the graphical fidelity between the PC and console versions is not strictly identical, they are compared here as equivalent quality levels.

FAQ: Hogwarts Legacy x NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti
What is the optimal setting for playing Hogwarts Legacy with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti?
We recommend "1080p / Ultimate / FG: ON" for comfort. By leveraging AI enhancements, you can maintain high visual quality while ensuring smooth gameplay.
Can NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti run Hogwarts Legacy on Ultra settings?
Yes, but frame drops may occur. For a stable 60FPS, try high settings (77 FPS).
Can I play Hogwarts Legacy at 4K resolution with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti?
4K is not recommended for this setup. The game averages only 28 FPS at 4K even on Standard settings. We suggest playing at 1440p or 1080p for a better experience.
Can I use Frame Generation (DLSS 3 / FSR 3) in Hogwarts Legacy with NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti?
Yes, it is supported. While Hogwarts Legacy supports DLSS FG, your NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti is not compatible with it, so this simulation utilizes FSR FG instead. Combining this with FSR upscaling ensures high image quality.
