Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 “Ultra” Game Performance
Let’s start with the basics in Cyberpunk 2077 2.0, below we will show performance across all GeForce RTX 40 Series GPUs using the game’s Quick Preset: “Ultra” quality mode. This means Ray Tracing will not be enabled. What we will do is see Ultra performance, and then compare that with turning on DLSS Super Resolution to “Auto”, and then adding Frame Generation on top of that for overall performance from Ultra to DLSS, to DLSS with Frame Generation. We will be using the built-in benchmark for testing performance.
Video Cards included are NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Founders Edition, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB Founders Edition, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Founders Edition, ASUS TUF Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 Ti 12GB OC Edition, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 Founders Edition and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition. We will test each one at different resolutions, as is appropriate for the video card, RTX 4060/4060 Ti at 1080p, 4070/4070 Ti at 1440p, and RTX 4080/4090 at 4K.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 starts off at 80.4FPS at 1080p and is playable. Enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto improves performance by 24%. Further, enabling Frame Generation improves performance by another 39%. The total improvement with Frame Generation compared to DLSS Off is 73%. We can reach over 120FPS with DLSS 3 and Frame Generation on this video card at 1080p.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti 8GB runs at 103.1FPS at 1080p and is playable. Enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto increases performance by 18%. Enabling DLSS 3 Frame Generation improves performance by another 38%. The total improvement with DLSS 3 compared to no DLSS is 62%.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 runs at 76FPS at 1440p and is playable. Enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto increases performance by 37%. When we enable DLSS 3 Frame Generation performance increases another 40%. The total improvement with DLSS 3 compared to no DLSS is 91%.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti runs at 117.8FPS at 1440p and is playable. Enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto improves performance by 20%. Enabling DLSS 3 Frame Generation improves performance by another 35%. The total improvement with DLSS 3 compared to no DLSS is 62%.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 runs at 63.8FPS at 4K, and is therefore on the border of being playable. However, enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto improves performance by 67% and the game is now playable at over 100FPS. Enabling DLSS 3 Frame Generation further improves performance by 29%. The total improvement with DLSS 3 compared to no DLSS is 115%.
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 runs at 87FPS at 4K, and is very playable. Enabling DLSS Super Resolution to Auto improves performance by 52%. Enabling DLSS 3 Frame Generation further improves performance by 33%. The total improvement from DLSS 3 compared to no DLSS is 102%.
