Am I from an alternate timeline? Because there's no such thing as a Ryzen 7 7800X. There's a Ryzen 7 7700X, which is the direct replacement to the 5800X, and then there's the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. Also, when CDPR first published the system specs, it was a "Ryzen 7 7800", with no "X" (which also doesn't exist). It's also bizarre that they're recommending CPUs that aren't even a year old at this point.
It is really weird, I probably should have brought this up in the video…live and learn!
I wonder which cpu they actually meant? The x3d or the 7700x? Really weird!!
that kinda gives me hope they are talking nonsense
I just built my first ever pc and I am absolutely ready for this dlc
That’s awesome, enjoy!
Bro us
Got my rtx 4070 build recently
before recently i had my prebuilt PC that could probably barely handle this game, with my recent first ever self built PC with a ryzen 7700x and rtx 4070ti i could probably handle it easily.
I have a rtx 4070ti with i5 12400f idk if it'll run?
@@The.COCK1 It will run great, maybe just don’t crank the ray tracing to ultra and you’ll be fine.
Great content David about the game, and glad I hit the subscribe button this week.😊
Thanks for highlighting those changes... I had read that the DLC update is making changes to the base game skill trees, cyberware and of course adding in DLC only content (6th skill tree). In addition, clothing will no long contain armor stats. Never gave it a thought this the "redesign" would increase the specs but it certainly makes sense.
Update: I replaced my Ryzen 7 2700 w/GTX-1080 with a new Ryzen 5 5600x w/RX 6700XT and 32GB of RAM along with a 2TB NVME
Did the same exact setup only with 1 TB of NVMe
These system requirements don't make very much sense. The weirdest thing about them is that they completely leave out 1440p, which is a very popular resolution, and a much more commonly used resolution than 4k (2160p). Also, recommending a 7800X to play at 1080p high, and then, even more nonsensically, recommending a 7900X to play at 2160p Ultra? If anything, you need less CPU power, not more, to go from 1080p to 2160p resolution... But the 7900X, while a more "high end" CPU than the 7800X, is actually a WORSE cpu for gaming, because of the chiplet/ core configuration, so I would be surprised if the 7900X could actually run any better than a 7800X anyway.. But, what's also crazy, is that a 7800X is a very powerful current gen CPU, and I find it very hard to believe that a 5800X wouldn't be more than good enough. Moreover, I would expect a 5600 or 10600k to also be just fine for hitting 60 fps. If their game actually REQUIRES a 7800X to hit 60fps, that would be very strange, imo.
I had been running Cyberpunk on a 3080 with a 5600, but I've traded my 3080 for a 6800 XT. I was just not really sold on ray tracing, and I came to think that the Vram on the 6800 XT is going to make it a better card over the next three years. Ray tracing is always the first thing that you want to turn off in order to improve performance. Even on a 3080, ray tracing just wasn't really that worthwhile, given what a huge hit it gives to performance. In games where the cost of ray tracing is lower, the affect it has on visual quality is negligible. Ray tracing often just looks different, not necessarily better, imo. It's more realistic, yes, but realistic doesn't necessarily mean better. If realism was always better, I would not play videogames, and would go outside a lot more often.
@@syncmonismhard disagree on the RT. I think it makes a night and day difference. Having accurate shadows really means a lot to me. So much so that I even turn it on on my 3060.
You're right the requirements don't make sense, they should hire a gamers nexus, hardware unboxed, or digital foundry to offer accurate system requirements
Just bought a 4070 and using a 5600x CPU. Steep requirements indeed. I just upgraded from a three year old motherboard that was malfunctioning and a 3600x. I wish I knew these requirements before all of that.
I´ve build a new pc in september, with RTX 3060 and i5-12400F, these requirements are really not something I´m happy about, mainly cause I use 2K, 144hz monitor. So I will say good bay to 60FPS. They want us to build better rigs, when most of new games nowadays are crap.
I just ordered a 4070 with an i713700kf so that should cover me but what I have now probably wouldn't even start the game heh.
I just brought mine with the same 5600x but 6700xt gpu and now am regretting it. This was my first pc build ever beause budget constraints and wanted to play CP2077 in particular and now this.
@@travismeo3696keep ray tracing off and turn a few shadow settings down and you’ll be fine, that coupled with FSR and you’ll hit 60 fps no problem.
Also wasn't mentioned in the requirements, but CDPR confirmed in their forums is that all the benchmarks were made with DLSS, FSR ,XeSS on, so its not even native FPS. CDPR said and I quote: "We see treat Upscaled FPS as natural FPS".
It smells of bad optimization, I have a 9900k cpu which is a strong 8 core CPU and I don't see any game that can top him Including cyberpunk.
Is mentionned in the requirements as a bottom page note...
@@MogR91 They mention it for the 4k resolution, but CDPR in their forums later clatified that DLSS 2, FSR and XeSS were used in the other banchmarks as well and they treat FPS achived by upscaler as native FPS.
@@v0idthrashtilldeath127fsr, dlss, xess, all increase the cpu utlization by a lot, that's probably why the cpu minimum requirements are so inflated.
@@Endermax3852 On the contrery DLSS 3 with frame gen should actually ease cpu utalization.
I expect a lot of stutter when it launches like we saw in next gen witcher 3
I just finished assembling my i9-13900/32G/RTX-4080 rig...runs the current game very smoothly and will find no challenge in the upcoming additions to Cyberpunk. Ready and stoked for it to arrive!
What's with those insane CPU requirements. looks like my system with 5800x and 4080 will have a hard time keeping up with 60fps mark due to CPU bottleneck.
Exactly what I’ve been thinking. It doesn’t even make sense you’re telling me I need a 7800X to run the game at 1080p 60fps? What an insane requirement. I can’t understand what is changing, I run the game at 1440p Ultra now with a 5950X and a 4080 and I’m getting about 140fps with frame generation. I refuse to upgrade because I’m not changing my whole mobo, power supply and cpu for one game.
@@Grantykinss No worries frame generation will help during cpu bottleneck scenarios like now without dlss3 I would get 60-70 fps with raytracing set to ultra and 60-70% gpu utilisation but with dlss 3 I get 140-150 fps with gpu usage sitting between 85-95%. But with new requirements if base frame rate is less than 60fps with dlss 3 on u might get 90-100 fps but input lag can definitely be felt at this fps. I will wait for one more cpu generation and then upgrade mobile, cpu, ram.
I put 500 hours into Cyberpunk when it first came out on an Alienware M17 R2, I'm looking at building a tower with a 6800xt so I can play Phantom Liberty and Starfield at 2K resolution at least.
Cool! 6800xt’s are great value right now
I wonder how my i5-12600K and RTX 3080 will fair.
Regardless, I have no intension of upgrading my processor until the 15xxx series drops sometime next year.
after i read those pc spec i felt like i've been backstabbed, man...
at the moment i play it with an i7 7700k, 16gb ram, 3060ti in 1440p UW
the only part of the update that, imho, could impact so deeply onto hw specs is the police overhoul... but i mean, i play this game since day 1 and i've tested A LOT of mods... and even if i consider crap those added to the patch (i would really prefer something a optional 3rd person view, more body types, more aestetical cyberware, maybe gang-related) i've tested them too of course, and i was able to run the game as "smooth" as usual... so i really do not grasp wtf them added to justify a so demanding CPU HW
My rig is just a R5 3600 and a RX6600 with HDD still so im afraid i will have some problems with the game when the new patch will be released, was running the game in High settings with 80 fps but once the update and DLC comes out not sure what will happen but i hope my system can still handle it to run atleast 60fps
i7 -11700 kf / Asus tuf OC 4070 ti / 32 gb ddr4 3600mhz
Everything set as high as possible + RT-overdrive 1440p (WQHD). I get 80 fps in the city and 100+ fps outside (DLSS-quality + FG)
The GPU is undervolted to 975 mv, and the power draw is about 180 watts
Currently running on a 5800x with a GTX 1660. Im really looking forward to the update, but am also worried if my hardware can hold up
Late to this but I'm on a 5800x3d and a 3070ti and also wanting to get a 1yr+ out of it before considering an upgrade. My target is always 1440p/60 and I'm happy to turn settings down, up to a point, to achieve this. I played and enjoyed 2077 a couple of times since launch so I won't feel too put out if I'm edged out tech-wise. They did state that 'High' means everything on high, that's how they benchmark. Hopefully, as it is an engine that scales really well, there will be settings like crowd density, or shadows, or something new they've added which can be adjusted to return some CPU performance. The benchmarks of the new patch will be interesting. I wonder if it will be another launch controversy -- not because of bugs but because hordes of pre-existing users suddenly discover double-digit dips in their avg frames.
I've 10700k 32gb and 2080 super i want play it 1440p without RT high preset is it possible?
I wonder if the new patch offloads a lot of the game’s work onto the CPU that was currently handled by the GPU…
i think what this mean is they since release fix game however they can, but at some point start developing dlc and realize to make it good they only choice is increase hardware requirements with is fine to me (old game mechanics probably use a lot of Crathes to make game work), they want to gain reputation back after scuffed release with dlc and 2.0 update, lets hope its worth it
currently I am running Cyberpunk on a i7-13700F, 4070ti, 32GB DDR4 RAM before I had a 1080 and a i7-8700 with 16GB RAM both worked good but the new Setup has like 3 times the FPS
Rtx 4060 8GB with ryzen 5 5500 Will be fine for high graphic ?
Will i be able to achieve 60 fps on Ryzen 5 3600 + RTX 3060 TI ?
Currently playing on a Ryzen 7 5800X/RTX 3070ti combo. Kinda wondering how much I'll have to tweak my setting for Phantom Liberty as I don't really plan on upgrading anything. Curious to where I fall on the chart since I primarily play at 1440p and the only raytracing I play with is reflection since without it the water looks really weird in this game. lol
If your not using a lot of ray tracing then probably not much change. But for us wanting it all it may need some better hardware. Still DLSS 3.5 is coming so maybe not that much.
I had an i5-3570k and gtx 970 with 8GB of DDR3 RAM and an ssd, and it was cyberpunk's release which made me realise that my PC had well and truly hit a wall. While in previous games I could get away with medium settings and some optimisation in most games, in cyberpunk I couldn't even do lowest settings and optimising and get a playable framerate. We're talking low 20s and dipping below when anything was happening.
So I upgraded to a 5600x, 3080 10GB, and 32GB of DDR4 with an SN850 SSD. I've since upgraded to a 5800X3D, and it runs and feels orders of magnitude better.
I feel like they may have realised they undershot on the requirements for the CPU, because having looked back I think my old rig's struggles mainly came from CPU throttling in most cases, and not from thermal, but from just not having the performance.
If you do go find yourself getting CPU throttled or having occasional frame stutters, consider dropping in the 5800X3D instead of doing a full upgrade, because I've noticed a difference in games like Star Citizen, Total War Warhammer 3, Warzone 2, Darktide, and some others. The 5800X3D is the best gaming CPU you will be able to get for your mobo without replacing it also. They're also soon releasing the 5600X3D, but I don't know how it weighs up yet, it may turn out to be good value and only a hair behind the 5800X3D, we'll see. My point is, the big L3 cache upgrade from the 3D v-cache helps smooth out those occasional frametime stutters, and has allowed it to stay in the running with even the best of the 13-series Intel CPUs and AMD's 7000 CPUs in benchmark charts.
The 5600X3D is only available at Micro Center so if You are lucky like me and live near one you can get that. I saw reviews showing it to have similar but, a bit weaker results than the 5800X3d which is about $60 to $80 US greenbacks more the last time I checked. I plan on dropping the 5800X3D into my AM4 board this fall when my property tax refund shows up. If that doesn't make Cyberpuck behave like does now, butter smooth at 2k with lows ~70 fps and average ~170 fps with high setting and no ray tracing.
i also had 970 gtx and i5-3570k with 16gb ram, and got it to run with around 38-55 fps, with medium high settings, and a lot of tweaking on certain settings.
The issue here is that the Ryzen 7 7800x does not exist, unless the are referring to the 7800X3D for high settings at 1080p... That is preposterous.
I have a feeling the system requirements are not very accurate.
They set higher for no further criticism lol.
as long you have a 40 series card, I don't CPU is quite a major issue as you have access to frame generation
I have a 5800x and a 4090, play on a 1440p OLED, hope the CPU holds up
The CPU requirement is absolutely ridiculous and I find it hard to believe but we will see I guess lol
I am new to PC gaming and my newish build has a Ryzen 7 5700G. For the gaming I do which is 1080p to 1440p at High to Ultra settings targeting 50-60+ FPS. It has been my experience that my CPU is a bit overkill, at least compared to build recommendations that I come across that still recommend CPUs with 6 cores and 12 threads (mine has 8 & 16). To find out that my CPU isn't good enough for 1080p high (when I currently get about 70-90 FPS on Ultra with my RX 7600) is kind of wild. I don't understand it. I think the CPU recommendations must be inflated. If these are for real than they might have a lot of people complaining when their rigs run this game like garbage, kinda like how they did with this game on launch and it ran like dookie (especially on last gen consoles).
I'm playing mine on a rtx 3060 nvidia with about 64gb of ram, 2tb ssd, and a Ryzen 9 cpu.
Somehow I still feel like that won't be enough. I play cyberpunk and yet it kept freezing in the middle of the game. The pc is only a couple months old.
I wouldn't think it's a big deal on PC because u can reduce the graphics but they did say there trying to get away from last Gen consoles so the game can run at its full potential...🎉🎉🎉
So my GTX 970 just cried out in terror. Thankfully I have a new rig on order that can handle this but I didn't realize just how far behind I had fallen with my tech. I don't even have a SSD 🤣
I'm also interested in how it will work))
CPU: 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12600K
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 12GB
RAM: 32GB
STORAGE: 1T NVME
Yeah I am baffled by the increase to the CPU requirements. A $400 CPU just to run the game at 60 fps with ray tracing? That's absurd
gaming n 7700x and 7900xtx, can't see how a 7900x cpu would be needed.
My hope is that CDPR continue to work on scalability, especially since the game runs pretty damn good on the Steam Deck currently, I can get a pretty solid lock at 30fps with ~medium settings and FSR Quality at 9W... allowing for 3 hours of battery life... I wish they continue that route, perhaps even offering lower poly models for the Steam Deck, because at 800p and a portable form factor I actually really enjoy battery life compared to visual fidelity. Also, it's gonna be rough running it on an SD card going forward I bet.
This is a really great point. They should freeze the 1.6 patch and offer it as a separate executable if they can't get it to scale well to steam deck hardware
I'm using an i7-12700K and a 3070ti. I'm still gonna try to do Ultra settings because why not.
Holy moly they're gonna start another GPU shortage, I'm currently running a GTX 1660 Super and Ryzen 5 5600 so I'm running a pretty slow setup for today's stuff which is unfortunate since I'll need to upgrade my GPU now
I'm currently running it on Ryzen 7 2700X and an RTX 3080 (12gb model) I don't plan on switching to AM5 for a while so I think I'll just upgrade to the best CPU my MOBO can handle either Ryzen 7 5800X or Ryzen 9 5900X both are under $350 and don't require me having to upgrade both my ram and MOBO as well.
Have you considered a 5800X3D? It’s only a matter of time before I cave and buy one haha
@@davidnott_ not really. The price is great but no overclocking. On top of gaming my rig is also used for video editing and visual effects.
@@MoonDoggie82I think if you managed to get by with a 2700x, the 5800x3d will make a great improvement, the performance loss in productivity over the normal 5800x is minimal.
And the gaming performance improvement is extraordinary.
But you do you.
Currently 2600X/GTX 1080...will upgrade to 5600X/RX6800XT before playing Liberty.
I am using currently a Ryzen 5 3600x with 16 GB of ram, and using a RTX 2060 Super. I feel I am within that minimum/recommended area. Ill be lucky to run this at 30 frames though.
I played it fine with a 2080 super.
@@sirmarshall9521 the update?
Aye! It wasn't max settings or anything like that, but I was able to play with a steady FPS and very impressive visuals after a little tweaking.@@buckshot1108
My specs are currently
Z690 Aorus Master
Intel i9 12900KF
RTX 4070 VENTUS 3X 12G OC (12GB)
32GB DDR 4800MHZ (Yes, I know, the lowest DDR5 frequency)
Samsung SSD 990 PRO 1TB
SO! If I can no longer run Cyberpunk in overdrive mode (Path tracing) using DLSS3/FG to get my current stable 70+ FPS when Phantom comes out, then I'll be fuming!
Just when my PC could handle it, they raise the stakes again lol
I got a 4070 ti and a I9 and the game looks great.
I think if you play up to patch 1.6 you'd notice that old sys specs won't run the game the way it's written on charts so maybe there won't be that huge jump from current ver.
I mean you're talking 2gb vram in recommended, a big jump from previous specs, that means even heavier textures and shadows, the game already looked good, I don't think this should be their focus.
i7-12700kf
64g ddr4
2t nvme ssd
BUT 1060 6g
no intention to upgrade my pc, so play as what my old 1060 could offers.
Im still on an i9 10900f and a 6800xt. I think It'll be alright. 64GB ddr4 4000.
Pretty gutted to think my Ryzen 7 3700x and RTX3070 are becoming obsolete, anyway I'll give it a go along with Starfield both out in September🤞
And to think just 1 year ago this card was considered a great deal.
Ull be plenty fine, dont worry.
I find it funny they want a 7800x3d for 1080p thats crazy. That cpu is only 6 months old surely phantom liberty and patch 2.0 stared production before 7000 series ryzen was even a thing.
Yes crazy, I've been playing CP without any problems with my Ryzen 7 3700x, RTX3700 on a 65in 4K tv at 1440, there is no way I will upgrade my hardware if they have made it necessary, basically they can shove it🤨@@elbagofcarp
If you think a 3700x and a RTX3070 is obsolete you have lost all common sense to begin with, either their game will be broken or they are hiding something major. And the 3 dopes who liked your comment are the people who need the newest tech possible and don't mind wasting major money you and those three people have lost it.
i'm running on a lenovo legion ryzen 7 4800h, 16GB RAM, GTX 1660 6GB NVME Drive, And a desktop Ryzen 5 5600, 16GB RAM, RX 6700 XT 12 GB, NVME Drive. get close enough to 60fps at 1080p and 1440p
My specs are a ryzen 5 5600, rx 6700 xt 12gb, 36gb ddr4 ram 3600, 500gb nvme drive, 4tb hhd, cooler I have thermaltake v1
I got the same specs at RT overdrive settings 😂
Not sure how an RTX 3080 is equivalent to an RX 7900 XTX, but alright...
Most games use only 2 or 4 cores at a time, I'm guessing...
R7 3700x 32 gb Ram at 3200mhz and a 3070 running at 1440p with 60 - 80 FPS. With RTX on Ultra it drops down to 40 - 60 FPS
Is the game good?
not only are they bringing in another big name celebrity with Idris Elba in the dlc, but the new system requirements are designed for pc gamers that only celebrities can afford. Nice, nice lol.
I7 12700 for high 1080p? W..why?
Your guess is as good as mine 🤣
I upgraded literally 2 weeks ago. Not really the best parts, but here they are:
CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
MB: GIGABYTE B450 Aorus Elite V2
GPU: RTX 3050 8GB Palit Dual
RAM: DDR4 Silicon Power 3200 MHz
I live in Russia. These parts were something like 56.000 rubles, which is like 550 US dollars as of now. I am not meeting recommended requirements. I feel played.
im counting on FSR 3.0!
You have the (phantom) liberty NOT to install DLC, especially as it's free. Then again, I am pretty positive that my 5800X/RTX 3080/12 combo will handle it without any hassle at 1440p. Or with ray tracing, same res but DLSS quality. 60 FPS is all I need. Right now, 1440p with ultra ray tracing (DLSS quality, optimized settings) uses like 60% of GPU power at locked 60 FPS.
I think they're just trying to prevent another mess like the games initial launch with these requirements.
They are there is no way in hell that game needs a Ryzen 7 7800X to run this is insane.
I'll play it on a 3060ti. I already bought it, damn it.
It just shows that the original game was build with old gen consoles in mind. Thats why much of the systems and content was scrapped, the old gen could not handle it. That translated over to the PC version, with low system requirements.
Now that they have gone out and said old gen will not be getting phantom liberty, i guess they have implemented systems that require more CPU power. But from what they have previewed, i don't see many new features that would call for a much better CPU. Crowds will still be the same, and not have full day/night cycles like the pre-launch of cyberpunkt trailers said. And i don't think going back into Cyberpunk will be a new experience. We will just have to wait, i still have the game installed, but don't really play it anymore.
I'm about to upgrade my old 4790k and was thinking of getting the 5600X paired with a 4070 to replace my 1080 but... heck o.o these CPU Requirements are bonkers! O.O should I jump to AM5? is AM4 really worth it in 2023... ;_; can I get 500$ plz?
A question I often ask too. I’m on a 5600X…should be next move be a 5800X3D, or get on board with AM5.
I5-8400 + 1070ti @1440p high settings, works just fine so far. I'm not getting stellar fps but this isn't a game that relies on that too much, have over 1k hours into it so far and not had any issues.
1k hours????
@@decrepidpasta6379 I like sandboxes and clowning around, what can I say. Funny thing is, I've never made it to one of the endings either, on purpose :P
I built my computer a year maybe a year and a half ago with a 5800xt and rx 6800xt. And know it sounds like my cpu and gpu are hot garbage after hearing what i need to upgrade to.
Yep its getting pretty pathetic how much the game industry is screwing up. Starting to look like that industry crash is coming soon unless some honest to goodness new watch dog group comes in to clean house as its obvious the industry cant watch itself.
@@77Arcturus I seems like the excuse we all hear is "executives are mean and making us hurry" so then they blame them on their decisions on tricking people into buying a half baked product.
Now with my with my 1060 3gb, i5-7400, 16 ram i can play it on low + everything disabled + fsr and i have around 35-60 fps so cdrp please ... let me just play dlc ;x
I have Cyberpunk DLC requirements down pat, running an i7 1700kf, 32gb ddr4 memory at 3200mhz, an RTX4080 all settings maxed out at 4K, with RT Overdrive enabled. I cannot wait for this DLC.
Nice! Enjoy!!
Thank you, great video...I didn't know the specs had increased, so an informative video.
Ryzen9 3900X, 64gig RAM, RTX3080.
I only have a 1080p TV as a monitor. I should be ok.
I'll keep this PC until it no longer does what I need to.
Gone are the days of mindlessly upgrading every 2 or 3 years.
My last PC was a first gen i7-950 .... I kept that as my no1 gaming rig for 9 - 10 years!
I really don't understand why any game dev would claim having more cores is going to benefit your performance in any game, regardless of resolution or settings. I have a feeling these hardware requirements were thrown together by an intern. So many inconsistencies, none of it makes sense. Playing with a Ryzen 5600x and an RTX 4080 and I think I'll be fine at 1440p.
You could have the Ultra requirements met and now barely scrape the new minimum requirements.
In a single player game. This isn't advertised as a live service title. 8th gen consoles don't even get the new DLC. At all. If you bought it there you're SoL.
If you want to have Raytracing Overdrive playable in Cyberpunk, you usually have a really fat computer. To be able to play Cyberpunk in 4k, Ultra and pathtraycing with a decent FPS rate, a 4080 or better a 4090 is necessary anyway. And gamers who have such a GPU also have a corresponding processor. Since these settings are only aimed at the hardest core of pixel snobs anyway, I don't see a problem with the increased requirements.
I'm not seeing what the issue is, but then I've got in on GOG, and I know that I can choose to install or download an older version, it could be different for other platforms. While some features being added might be considered to be those that were promised three years ago, I'm thinking of this as a free upgrade if you have or get a system that handles it. I'm a bit put out by those bizzare system requirements as well, however - it's also worth remembering that pre-release system recommendations often seem to be nonsense put together by whichever muppets in the design and marketing team who are not trusted with real work.
This. It's my game, and I can chose which version to run.
Steam also lets you do this, but it's a hidden feature most people never see.
Does ps5 count?
A 4080 is not going to get 60 FPS in 4K unless they've optimized the game to lessen the graphical requirements (and while there may be some optimization, they are increasing graphical requirements across the board). My 4090 benchmarks at 58-59 FPS in RT: Overdrive in 4K, and in game drops to low 30s in a couple places. I guess maybe they are expecting use of DLSS.
Yes that would be the obvious idea.
Good on them for updating the specs needed. The originals where to low to start with. But who plays a game like this at the lowest settings? That’s dumb.
This topic definitely requires more attention.
As to me, CDPR have become an exemplar of corporate marketing scheming:
a) What they do in terms of repairing their product is understandable and appraisable, and I, actually, support it;
b) on the contrary they are trying to fulfill their original game promises by delivering a game with now completely different hardware requirements and essentially defying the original buyers into believing that a good game with so low specs is possible. Basically some buyers would now sit with the promised game and no longer compatible PC build (feels like a scam, no?). No wonder PS-store dropped the whole thing short time after launch;
c) be warned fellow consumers, that if CDPR and the like succeed now, that would likely establish a useful precedent to the future game developers to deliver the game with fake sys reqs and thus lower entrance threshold and then ramp it up during a following fixing-period. Combine this with the aggressive pre-purchase practices and you witness a dystopian game development cycle going live.
Pisses me off is what it does to me. I have a AMD 5700X, 32 gigs ram, RX 6750 XT, and a 2t Nvme SSD. I play in 2k high settings with lows ~70 fps and average FPS of ~170 with the latest patch. According to their chart I will be stuck at 1080p and half my current frame rate if I'm lucky. I bought this game in Dec of 22 and I am supposed to be happy they gave me a 3 month notice. I just built this rig so that I could play Cyberpunk 2077 at high settings and now they tell me so sorry thanks for your money. Doubt I will buy another game from them.
Perhaps their list of requirements is off a lot. They do seem to be all over the place so maybe I am wrong and I won't take such a huge hit in performance. I'll be very happy and buy the DLC if that is the case. If not I will probably uninstall the game.
Dude, could you explain in a video exactly what law allows these bastards to hide a new remastered version behind the same game released 3 years ago?
I mean, I understand that if CDPR wants to release a patch it has to support only that one instead of two distinct versions, an "old" version and the "remastered"...
I also understand that there is a law that gives developers the ability to modify their products by issuing a press release 30 days before the patch is released...but I also know that this law is designed for free/freemium games that rely on purchases in-app not for AAA production games...
Therefore:
1. if that law allows developers the ability to raise the HW baseline, is there a law that allows consumers to ask for a full refund for the unilateral willingness to raise those specs, considering that physical copies of this game exist AND that we all own a KEY?
2. Are there any consumer associations that might be interested in bringing these accursed speculators into line?
According to the ultra 4k specs my sistem wold still struggle for ultra max 60 fps even the first cyberpunk 2077 struggled with last gens rtx3000 Series and gen 5000 cpus from amd and12gen for intel, it was the next crisis pc killer. My system should be able to almost max out the new phantom liberty in 1440p
My PC: Ryzne 7 5800x3D rxt 4080 32gb system ram 3600 mghz 4 channel 4 TB NVME ssd 850 PSW power supply 80+ gold Monitor Samsung Odesy 5 32 inch wide 2560x1440p can adjust the resolution and get a bit more from envidia control pannle at graphical cost 3440x1440p. Just insane recommendations 😂
Yeah you’re right, nice rig though 🙂
got my 13900k and 4090 ready
Can tell you my pc specs having built in about a week or so if you like, for this game.😁
I’m all ears!
@@davidnott_ well, have not upgraded in 5 years so it's a crazy build
Rtx 4080 with a 13900k and a z790 motherboard with 32gigs of ddr5 memory clocked at 6400 hrzs.
With a crutial T700 2tb with speeds up to 12,400 which is subjective depending on motherboard and other things to.But I think I should get speeds up 8,000 transfer rate.
And a liquid cooled io to.
So yes a bit of a crazy build, but it should be more than enough for cyberpunk and the up and coming starfield to.😊
@@davidnott_ sorry, and a 1,000watt gold MSI power supply.😊
The cpu requirements are probably because those platforms are the minimum for ddr5 support
ddr depends on the motherboard mostly tho.
Damn, my Ryzen 3 7320u will not run this
Nah bruh, this is bs. I am really curious what a Ryzen 7 7800X is, because I can't really seem to find any available to buy.
Yeah I meant to mention this in the video, my bad! They must mean the 7700X..
@@davidnott_ That's not your bad. They posted wrong information on their website and setup recommendations that make no sense. I strongly believe that the post was made by the marketing department.
Intel i9-13900KF
RTX 4090
64GB Ram
I'm playing with 5800x3d, 64Gb ram, rtx 4090, 4k 120Hz OLED TV. Currently plays Cyberpunk on everything maxed out (RT, FG, DLSS-Q) at around 100fps but dips down in crowded areas and goes higher out of the city.
I suspect they want more CPU cores for something like crowds and updated mobs and police maybe.
I played through the game when it came out (200hrs+) with 5800x, RTX 3080 at 1440p ultrawide and that would do around 50fps maxed out.
I'm currently running this on an i9 12900K and a 4070. I might be upgrading to a 4080 as I'm giving my 4070 to my wife but currently I can run this game at the same settings I have it at..... hopefully 😂
Ah I’d love a 4080. If only it were cheaper!
@@davidnott_ It's pricey but I see it as an investment. I like to go big, that way I don't have to upgrade for a few years. I might actually get a 4090. I haven't decided yet.
What a game huh? It was first released with thousands of bugs some of which were still around a year ago, which is the reason I waited. And now, when I was going to buy the game, they increased the requirements to something my fairly old gaming pc won't be able to handle. I have a cpu of i5 3500 and RAM of 8 gb. F*ck this game then, I will forget I ever wanted to play it and play something else instead. Such a hyped up game for nothing
I am currently running my new platform with a Ryzen 9 7950X and RTX 4090. Custom cooled the CPU with hardlines and EK blocks and pump/res. Couldnt swing the $500 for the new Vector squared ABP block for my GPU but temps are great with 10x Lian Li infinity loop unifans in the 011D XL. I amrunning with 32gb of DDR5 6000mHz cl30 memory. Allthatto say I am surlrised I am still just barely good recomended setting with RT overdrive. Sure am looking forward to seeing the rests though!
I have a I5-9400F and a trusty 1080 Ti which I used to play at middling to high settings at 1440p without Raytracing, but I stopped playing ages ago - briefly returning to ride the high of patch 1.6 before burning out from the lack of promised features and bugs. I have a new job however and I want to save up to buy a rig capable of running at maxed out settings with RT Overdrive enabled at 60fps+. Got my eye on the 7800X3D and a 4090 to make that happen and I'm hoping for a "2.0" experience where I can start the game again through an immersive, higher fidelity lens and maybe actually finish the game instead of feeling like I was chewing on the bones of something greater.
And if CDPR drops the ball again there's always Starfield and Armored Core 6 to make use of all that power.
I find it interesting the gpu requirements in my opinion are below average for what they should be asking a regular 2060 to use rt low even if it is 30 fps is super low balling it but then the cpu requirements are straight up laughable. 12900k for 60 fps? Seems like devs are really struggling with (or just not bothering to) optimise games for cpu. Star wars and last of us are exactly the same nothing about the games shouts insane cpu requirements yet unless you were on super top end 500+ dollar cpus you cant even get 60 fps regardless of your gpu lol.
Hopefully the regular rt recommended aren't tested with frame gen on too because that would just be unacceptable. I mean these recommended are already unacceptable to be honest. You can tell this is a lazy developer pre-emptive strike. "hey billy are we gonna optimise the game at all? hah of course not, alright so how do we avoid backlash? just set stupidly high required hardware for very low frame rates so they can't complain"
Also gonna love to see how this runs on console. Consoles have the specs that matches lowest 30 fps target shown here. Don't think ps5 and series x owners are gonna be happy being told best you can run is 30 fps lowest settings on a 500+ dollar console.
Yeah the GPUs seemed outrageously low given the CPUs they were recommending they be paired with.
Probly not, my computer is from 2012.
I think they trying to push suttf for nvidia we konw they have a partnership cdpr trying to sell sutff why you think they pushing raytracing witch will make the game look better butt kill fps it will hit under 60 frames gd old cdpr all ways f up something plus I bet that is what nvidia recommends not actually cdpr like I said before cdpr is not a gd company they dirty this proves it plus why update recommend systems when the game really has nothing to do after level 50 whats the point I see it as corporation corruption
Yes I just got my new system yesterday! ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition, AMD 7800 X3D, 64 Gbs DDR5, 2TB Nvme SSD w/ 2nd 2TB Nvme SSD , CPU Liquid cooler Pure Loop 2 FX 280mm I played a new game with max settings and Damn it was awesome 👌 👏
the 4090 is ready...
cries in 6700k
i9 9900k, 2080ti
The thing that baffles me, is the fact that for the ultra settings, the 3080 was compared to the 7900xtx.
