Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 BEST Settings for FPS & Quality (In-Depth Optimization Guide)

[@sydhamelin1265]

RESULTS: Ok, as I said below, I was already close to these settings, but I changed everything accordingly to match exactly - except my FOV is on 80, and my sharpness is on 75 (which I actually moved up from 50). The result was that YES, I did get an FPS boost, probably between 5-10, enough to notice in dense areas. As for how the game looks - it actually looks BETTER than it did before. So, with these adjustments, both the look and performance improved. It's all about knowing which settings give you the most bang for the buck, and adjusting accordingly. I really thought I had it locked in, but these recommendations gave me a notable improvement all around. Thank you!!!

[@grayless8887]

does FOV alter framerate?

[@sydhamelin1265]

@@grayless8887 Yes, in my experience a wider FOV means a lower framerate, since more is being rendered onscreen.

[@s8r4]

The correct settings literally make or break the game in my opinion, its amazing how well it looks and plays after following your recommendations, I'd argue it even looks better than just using the stock high / ultra preset, was really sleeping on the dlss sharpness slider. Thank you :)

I thank KZbin algorithm for recommending this video. By following this video my FPS went from 65-70fps to now 125-135 fps. Since I didn't fiddle much around with settings when I reinstalled Cyberpunk I just went with the high settings preset with a couple of tweaks like motion blur off etc and it did not turn on DLSS and I was only getting that 65-75fps while at the city now I have stable 125-135 fps sometimes reaching my max 144fps which feel awesome in combat and exploration.

That is incredible, and thank you. I am running an i5-12600K with the venerable 1080Ti, (so no DLSS or Ray Tracing) and previously on High settings. This is 1080p, and I was getting about 64fps on benchmark. I do like motion blur so set this back to High. The rest of the changes, I cannot tell the difference. I'm now getting 84fps with 109 high and 64 low on v2.1, too. This is a brilliant video, thank you again.

[@dribrom]

If you're not playing in a competitive FPS tournament frame rates is not that important, especially in a single player game. It's allot more important to get a stable frame rats. You will feel like it lagging if the frame rate bouncing all over the place even if it's between 60 and 120. Some times it's better to cap the frame rate at a lower Hz than try to get as high number as possible.

[@thebonelesskeleton]

if you have a pc like his than yeah but i think this helps lower ends pc more, for example my pc goes from around 55 fps to around 75

[@doomslayer8985]

for shooter games your priority is to target as many fps as possible but for AAA singleplayer games at the very least 60fps and you are good to go

[@InternetStudiesGuy]

It's about responsiveness of the game. Mouse input translating into things happening on the screen. Even if you have nvidia reflex on, it will take at least 2 engine frames to change anything on the screen starting with the mouse input, that's 30ms. If you run at 144hz it's closer to 10ms. The game feels more responsive, and you the player feel more immersed. Always aim for more than 60fps. You can get away with much less in something like a slow paced strategy game, but fast shooty action? Aim for 100 at the very least. It feels much better to play.

[@dribrom]

@@InternetStudiesGuy It's that the AI is too stupid for you to need to be that good in a single player game. Also most players are not skilled enough to even be able to take advantage of that fact. But the higher resolution and the bigger your screen is the higher hertz you need. However If you play on a laptop with a 17" screen, 4k resolution is a total waist of processing power. You need at least 45" or even 50" before 4k at 120 Hz is required. The human eye can't see the difference between 1080p and 2160p on a small screen anyway.

[@luismkts]

Great settings and great video! I just differ on one thing you mentioned about Path Tracing. I've played the game in both rasterized and ray traced modes, the visual upgrade you get with normal ray traced mode is only worth in reflections mostly. But now that I've tried path tracing... OMG it's a totally different experience (visually). Of course you will destroy fps with that setting on, but if you have a nvidia 4070ti or higher, the game is surely playable. I'm running it on that card and getting 50-90 fps without your optimizations! For me the most important thing for any game to look good, is great lighting, and don't get me wrong, cp2077 looks beautiful even in pure rast mode!

[@Globespy]

100% agree. This is not a game where you need max FPS for latency/accuracy like you would in competitive FPS games. This game is so beautiful and if you have hardware that can run it, it's a crying shame not to use it. I'm lucky to have X3D CPU with 4090, so can max everything (path tracing) and still keep perfectly playable frames. I could care less about getting 20-30 more FPS and losing the visual experience this game has to offer.

[@RedRyan1]

Yeah, I’m running a 4070ti on a ryzen 7 2700. Usually have it on ray tracing low when streaming with a fps of 70-90, and without streaming can run ray tracing ultra, even overdrive with 60+ fps.

[@shintao5323]

I had serious trouble finding settings that both look good, are free of stutters and with which the game is stable with my hardware. I started with your settings and the experience is soooo smooth, thanks a lot!

[@kurofushiguro]

[@pasijack]

About the setting "crowd density", it has a very large impact on fps, cause I tested it out with a config, where all NPC's and cars got removed and I got more fps, a lot more... and no stuttering

[@void-master9077]

So the trade off is either a beautiful ghost town, or an ugly living city, this game was really fun until phantom liberty broke it for me, now things just don’t stop popping in and breaking things.

[@garden0fstone736]

Yeah I started off high than eventually found switching to medium really helped me stay at 60 in areas such as the Mega building safe house but then I realized how much better it was with high so now I just deal with it dipping into the high 40s for brief moments in high populated area it just makes it feel better

[@AtlantisDrift]

My FPS shot up from 65fps to 90fps on the "Run Benchmark" test inside video settings in-game. That's a 38% FPS boost! I too have a 3090 GPU like the video poster (as well as a i7-10900k CPU), and I more-or-less did exactly what the video poster did except for maybe 3 options which I did different (put on more demanding of setting). This video is gold to get your FPS to skyrocket while also, surprisingly, making the game look even better! Hats off to FourEyes for posting this!

[@alphahannah_]

I was using these settings before update 2.1 dropped (running a Ryzen 5 5600G & RTX 3060) and my FPS went from 30-40 to 80-90, then 2.1 seemed to throw my settings out the window. Glad I was able to come back to this!

[@eikestolze9109]

I just realized that I don't have to decline a feature. I play with the "Ray Tracing Overdrive" preset with path tracing on and 2K ultra-wide screen resolution and get around 100 FPS. My hardware is good, but not the best (for example, the smallest current CPU). But I chose a 4080 graphics card - and oh my god, is that a beast of a card! I will never regret spending €1500 on it. The good thing is that the card will be enough for the next 10 years (as long as the card doesn't break).

Killer video breakdown! I was already pretty close in my settings, just from a lot of experimentation, and this video will save people a LOT of that time I used. I run on a 3070ti mobile, so I went a little more on the FPS side, like having contact shadows off. The one that I have off, that I'm immediately going to toggle on, is Lens Flare. I just don't typically turn it on, but the mention of all the neon has me curious to see. Plus, my current FPS floats between high 70s, in the most dense areas, to mid 100s, meaning I have room to add a little more.

[@jedadiahtucker2132]

good recomendations overall. the only 2 things id say need a "astrix" would be V sync, and motion blur. V sync unless youre sensitive to latancy or in a competitive game you really should leave that on. save power, temps, and possably noise. unless youre struggling to hit the refreash rate, as it can create stutter in that case. then motion blurr, if you struggle with motion sickness in game try turning on motion blurr. its something youre brain dose to fast moving objects naturally. especially if you sit close to youre screen and/or it takes up a large portion of youre field of view this can help a ton. it can make it worse though depends.

[@MrJ0hanh]

I play with Path Tracing and all RT on max. My FPS went from 28-30 avg (console experience) to 38-40. 33% gain. 😊 Specs: 10600K, 7900XT eco-mode. My PC is built to be quiet and cool. The difference in quality is massive. I dont wanna play the game without Path Tracing.

My system is an AUS ROG machine running an AMD Ryzen 7 5700X 8-core CPU with 16 GB RAM and an Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 Ti with 8 GB RAM. When I bought this machine about 2 months ago, I spent an hour in CP2077 playing with the settings and running benchmarks. My final results were: AVG FPS 138, Max FPS 226. After switching to your settings, my results were: AVG FPS 37, Max FPS 48. I think the biggest difference was your settings being at native screen resolution, while on my chosen settings, I was at 1920 x 1080 and using the Nvidia upscaling.

[@xKnightAFx]

What is the reason for Nvidia Upscaling? Not hating I’m just curious cuz I know almost nothing about it

[@Rigel_Chiokis]

@@xKnightAFx The idea is that rendering at a lower resolution is easier and can be done faster, then you use an AI routine (DLSS or FSR) to upscale to your desired resolution. Upscaling to a higher resolution is much quicker than rendering at the higher resolution. Although, as of patch 2.13 I can get it to upscale; it just displays as a window smaller than the desktop.

[@sayantanchakraborty4536]

Bro you're life save! GODSPEED to you! 🔥🔥

[@DraganAlves]

Such a helpful video, thank you! I would add: it seems like you could turn on path tracing in photo mode, because then you're not as concerned about FPS

[@AnOatBran]

Finally some good settings! I havent been able to optimize this game until now and can finally enjoy it. Hardware Unboxed just lost a follower and you just gained one sir.
