The lowly RTX 3050 running Cyberpunk 2077 RT Overdrive at 1080p30? digitalfoundry talks performance across RTX 20 series, 30 Series and RDNA 2 GPUs - and the arrival of a fps-boosting mod.
The release of Cyberpunk 2077's RT Overdrive upgrade sees a new level of visual fidelity brought to a modern triple-A game via path tracing - the purest form of ray tracing.
For diffuse lighting that's readily seen everywhere in the game world, the impact here is that every area is now technically darker and indirectly lit areas are darker still, while the reduction light means that the game's post-processing changes:,less light enters the virtual camera, so eye adaptation becomes more extreme. It's a quality downgrade then, but the lion's share of the impact of the path-traced presentation remains intact.
The RTX 3080 is a great card and allows you to get some very, very striking results from RT Overdrive without the need to use the mod and reduce the quality level of the path tracing. I found that I could get some impressive results by using the Nvidia control panel to set up a custom 3200x1800 resolution. At this point, I can run RT Overdrive on DLSS performance mode, target 30fps and the vast majority of play hits the frame-rate target.
