Cyberpunk 2077 is an open-world, action-adventure RPG developed by CD Projekt Red and at launch, it received a lot of backlash due to numerous technical issues and incomplete gameplay. However, due to its graphical accomplishments, it is currently regarded as a benchmark to test various graphics cards. 

With the recent launch of Nvidia’s RTX 5060 Ti graphics card, players can now enjoy playing Cyberpunk 2077 with outstanding visuals. Accompanied by the DLSS 4 technology, you can now achieve frame rates that previous-gen cards had difficulty reaching. Moreover, with the 16 GB of VRAM, you can enjoy high to ultra settings even with ray tracing. The extra 8 GB of VRAM, when compared to the base RTX 5060, is quite useful for this title.

Best Settings for Cyberpunk 2077 With RTX 5060 Ti

Currently, the RTX 5060 Ti graphics card is one of the best you can get for a low- to medium-budget build. In Cyberpunk 2077, you can easily achieve a stable frame rate of 60-80 fps at 1080p and 1440p resolutions.

  • These settings should get you a stable 60-80 fps with ray tracing on at all times. Moreover, you can also turn path tracing on at 1080p resolution, which provides better quality visuals when compared to ray tracing. 

  • If you want a higher frame rate, we do recommend turning ray tracing off to boost your frame rate by quite a bit more. However, you do have to sacrifice a great amount of the visuals that Cyberpunk 2077 is famous for.
