Cyberpunk RTX 2070 for me it is then

Awesome news, and seems about right since they recently ported Witcher 3 to Switch of all things.
 
That´s pretty much the current gen console-port baseline.
The "recommended" specs definitely don`t reflect what you need the moment you turn all the dials to high/ultra and RTX is enabled.
 
Some very impressive specs for what Cyberpunk 2077 has to offer. I'm shocked and happy for a lot of folks that thought they wouldn't make the cut.
 
Hilariously misleading and ultra-generic requirements as usual.

Imagine being a noob and thinking that a 1060\4790 is enough to max the game out :ROFLMAO: maybe at 480p...

I can't believe my I5 8400k and RX 580 meets the recommended. What fucking black magic did they pull to optimize the game that well?

I guess the only question is, how well the recommended will run the game on Max Settings?
 
The minium req is like 2x power of the ps4 . If the ps4 can run this game at 1080p 30fps then its probably fine at the same setting .

Who thought recommended is maxing out everything?

noobs? not everyone is a master race who knows this stuff and technically the word "recommended" is pretty self explanatory...it's like devs are telling you "we recommend these hardware to play the game at his best...at medium setting" it doesn't sound right isn't?! one would think that recommend is for high settings...

but even for experts, without a resolution\framerate\details target, what the fuck recommended does it even mean?

Damn I need to rebuild my PC.... but thats planned for next year. I am right between min and recommended. PS5 it is then for Cyber Punk.

I always took it like to run it at good settings stable playable framerate. I guess everybody is scared of showing Min/Recommended/Max settings as it should be the norm.

But you are right though, I think we we are at a time where advanced spec requirements is a must. Target framerate/resolution and it's recommended specs.

I wonder how much money would NVIDIA give to CDPR if they went THE WAY IT WAS MEANT TO LOOK SETTINGS and recommend an rtx 30XX card.

for what i can remember, in the past usually recommended meanted 1080p 60 frame high details, but there are too much variables and sure thing you are not gonna play this game at high details with a 1060 and that cpu...
 
That minimum cpu requirement is a little worrying... I don't expect complex physics or AIs if those toasters can run it.

They recomend ssd even on minimum which means that it will be very dense asset wise(that's good)

This screams good optimization. Very good news, I'm getting Titanfall 2 vibes from this which runs amazing on my low end rig.

They've always been a PC developer first and foremost. Witcher 1/2/3 all scaled very well across hardware. People would just always try and max shit and not realize their hardware wasn't up to par and blamed CDPR.

The minimum setting will almost certainly be for 30fps. In fact i bet the reccomended settings are for 30fps.
I should be good to go for 1080p/60 on my PC.

Yeah i think minimum is probably something like 900p/30fps stable with minimum settings.

A modern budget cpu and gpu will probably run this at 1080p/60fps at medium settings. The ssd is recomended probably to avoid pop-ins
 
It'll be interesting to see whether PCI-E 3.0 SSD will make a difference in this game and if it is, I'll upgrade from SATAIII to NVMe.
 
That's some weird requirements. The gap between a RX 470 and GTX 1060 isn't very big. Likewise, 8GB vs 12GB isn't much of a difference either. My guess would be that a 2080ti will do 4K/60fps/Ultra no RTX. Maybe a 2080ti/3070 for 4K DLSS + RTX effects. It could be way heavier than this based on that previous showing, but WD Legion was like that and in the end has reasonable requirement for RTX.

good stuff, should have enough overhead to inject into vr w / vorp

How is Vorp these days? I remember paying for it a few years ago and getting it installed and playing Alan Wake. It worked well enough, just not as well as I'd have liked, especially with how much fiddling it took. Kinda haven't touched it in a long time.

it's good

latest update was last month w / improved headset sync and fallback hooking, better support across dx9+ titles

My i5 3570 still hanging in there biaatches.

As it bloody well should. It's still a lot more powerful than console CPUs.

Seems like they really don't want you to use an HDD though.
 
I have RX580, Ryzen 5 2600 and 16 GB DDR4, plus SATA SSDs.

Feels weird not to have to upgrade - though I probably will, to play this in 1440p...
 
So I don't need to upgrade my GPU after all , Ryzen 5 3600 / RX570 4GB / 16GB RAM , for 1080p medium guess I'll be OK , I hope , should be better than One X version.
