Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, one of the most awaited titles of 2022, is finally available. The game boasts fast-paced and rewarding multiplayer modes, along with an action-filled and visually impressive campaign experience.

Fortunately, Activision, the game's developers, have optimized the latest game rather well for modern hardware. Users with any RTX 30 series or AMD Radeon RX 6000 series video card can expect to enjoy the title at high frame rates with zero hiccups.

On that note, the RTX 3050 Ti laptop GPU can also run the recently launched Modern Warfare 2 with an enjoyable gameplay experience. Users of the laptop GPU can easily play the game at 90+ FPS with sufficient visual fidelity levels and no significant drops in framerate.

Due to its limited capability, players will not be able to fully maximize their in-game settings while playing Modern Warfare 2 on an RTX 3050 Ti laptop GPU. The main hurdle will be the limited VRAM availability, since the RTX 3050 Ti has only 4 GB of VRAM, which is sub-par for this year's standards.

Nevertheless, by keeping texture resolution in Modern Warfare 2 low, users can circumvent this problem. Other settings like anti-aliasing and shadow quality can be tweaked to achieve a good-looking video game at the very least.
