Rocket League is one of the good free-to-play games on the market. It can be downloaded via the Epic Games Launcher and the good news is the game isn’t heavy at all so gamers on the budget should probably be happy about it. Moreover, the game offers nice visuals, a good soundtrack, and fun and entertaining gameplay which is something like football (soccer) with cars.

We mentioned that the game isn’t heavy and it really is – a modern low-end GPU like the NVIDIA GeForce MX450 (GDDR6, 25W) can show around 120 FPS on the High Quality preset. However, people with fast refresh rate displays will probably need much higher FPS values. For today’s article, we’ll compare the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 (65W) and RTX 3050 (55W) when it comes to Rocket League.
