Cyberpunk 2077 is a 2020 action role-playing video game developed and published by CD Projekt. The story takes place in Night City, an open world set in the Cyberpunk universe. Players assume the first-person perspective of a customisable mercenary known as V, who can acquire skills in hacking and machinery with options for melee and ranged combat. Cyberpunk 2077 was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Xbox One on 10 December 2020. (Wikipedia).

Engine: REDengine 4. We test using the High preset, DX12 API.

As for Cyberpunk 2077, it is a pretty similar situation overall. The RTX 3050 is beating out the GTX 1660 Super by 6%, though in practice that’s only a difference of 3 FPS so it’s hardly a game changer. The RTX 3050 also a decent amount slower than the RTX 2060, coming in 17% behind, but again we’re seeing no difference when dropping PCIe speeds down to Gen3.
