Recommended PC Settings and Tweaks for CYBERPUNK 2077 PC

Tweakin’ My Life Away

With a launch surrounded by varying reports and reviews of Cyberpunk 2077, I have been focusing on getting the most of the PC version of the game which overall, seems like the best version if you want to dive into the game immediately and more so, if you have the gear to run it. Either way, here are a tips, tricks, tweaks and settings that we recommended for performance with stunning visual quality. All screenshots in this article are captured with the settings we recommend. Be sure to click on any of them to see the original, larger resolution version.

Graphics Settings

All settings can be set to max except the following:

RTX Lighting: Set to Ultra
DLSS: Set to Balanced
Film Grain: Set to Off
Chromatic Aberration: Set to Off
Motion Blur: Set to Off
FideltyDX Settings Set to Off

Also, be sure to go to NVIDIA control panel and set NVIDIA sharpening to .40.

If you are still getting low FPS, play with DLSS settings first along with NVIDIA sharpening to make up for lost detail. If that is still resulting in low FPS, disable all RTX features as they are the heaviest hitters and honestly, the game is still gorgeous without them.

Misc Settings and Tips

  • Nudity Censor is only available on Main Menu. You cannot enable or disable during gameplay

  • If playing on GOG (Recommended), make sure you are on are version 1.03 as of time of this writing. If you are on a different version, that is not the patched retail version

  • All your saved games are cross platform (GOG, Steam, EGS) and are stored in the Saved Games folder in Windows 10

  • Quicksave is bound to F5 by default. Use it, love it, embrace it

  • Use TAB to scan you environment, even in the starting areas. Much hidden loot to be found. You can also hit CAPS LOCK to lock in scan mode
