The game is very demanding.
The long-awaited game Cyberpunk 2077 will be released the day after tomorrow, and many journalists have already played, rated, and even tested modern video cards in the new project.
GeForce graphics cards put on the paddles of Radeon cards in the latest Cyberpunk 2077
Recall that the game was created in partnership with Nvidia, so the diagrams are expected to show GeForce cards’ advantage over competitors.
As you can see, Cyberpunk 2077, at maximum settings at 4K, is a very demanding game even without ray tracing, which, recall, is currently only available for Nvidia cards.
Even the GeForce RTX 3090, which is the leader in the rating, provides only 46 fps. By the way, the game developers were not cunning in their system requirements: the RX 6800 XT, it seems, can really only compete with the RTX 3070, but this card is not in the test.
If we talk about ray tracing (RTM and RTU are respectively medium and maximum settings), then everything is as sad as possible because the Nvidia flagship drops as close as possible to the playable limit of 25 fps even at medium settings. Fortunately, there is support for DLSS, which allows you to improve the situation significantly. In any case, Cyberpunk 2077 is still capable of bringing literally any modern video card to its knees. However, it should be expected that shortly, the patches will somewhat moderate the game’s appetites.
If we talk about Full HD, you can even play on a GeForce GTX 1060.
