PC for Cyberpunk 2077

Frequently asked questions
What graphics card do I need for Cyberpunk 2077 with path tracing?
For RT Overdrive at 4K we recommend an RTX 5080 or RTX 5090 with DLSS 4. At 1440p, an RTX 5070 Ti already tops 140 FPS with frame generation.
How much RAM does Cyberpunk 2077 need?
16 GB is the minimum, but with path tracing and mods we recommend 32 GB of DDR5 at 6000 MT/s to avoid stutter when driving through the city.
Does the processor matter in Cyberpunk 2077?
Yes. In dense areas like Dogtown, the processor is what limits your FPS. Ryzen X3D chips hold the minimums best.
