How We Grade Laptops

Every laptop GPU gets a performance score based on real-world benchmarks, mapped to desktop equivalents.

01

GPU Benchmark Score

Each laptop GPU receives a numerical score derived from public benchmark data. For example, an RTX 4060 Laptop scores lower than its desktop counterpart due to power and thermal constraints.

02

Desktop Equivalent Mapping

We map laptop GPU scores to desktop GPU tiers so you can compare apples to apples. A laptop RTX 4070 often performs closer to a desktop RTX 4060.

03

Game Requirement Comparison

Your laptop's GPU score is compared against each game's minimum and recommended GPU scores to produce a grade from S (overkill) to F (can't run).
