CD Projekt RED has revealed the official Ray Tracing PC requirements for Cyberpunk 2077. Furthermore, the team has further detailed the non-RT PC requirements for this upcoming RPG.
As CD Projekt RED noted, for gaming at 1440p/Ultra, PC gamers will need an Intel i7 4790K or AMD Ryzen 3 3200G with 12GB. PC gamers will also need an NVIDIA GeForce RTX2060 or an AMD Radeon RX5700XT.
For gaming at 4K/Ultra, CD Projekt RED recommends using an RTX 2080 Super, RTX3070 or an AMD Radeon RX 6800XT.
Now what’s really interesting here is that CD Projekt RED has not listed any AMD GPUs for its Ray Tracing PC requirements. NVIDIA has stated that Cyberpunk 2077 uses DXR for all of its Ray Tracing effects, and that all DXR-compatible GPUs should be able to support them. Thus, we are not certain whether AMD’s GPUs will indeed support RT at launch.
But anyway, CD Projekt RED recommends using an RTX2060 for gaming at 1080p with Medium Ray Tracing. For Ultra Ray Tracing at 1440p, the team recommends using an RTX3070. Finally, for 4K/Ultra Ray Tracing, CDPR recommends using an RTX 3080.
Lastly, CD Projekt RED has not listed the framerate that these specs target. However, we can safely assume that they target 30fps.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
