NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 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.
