Cyberpunk 2077 E3 Demo Ran at 1080p Ultra Settings with RTX On; Visuals & RTX to Improve Further

Cyberpunk 2077's E3 2019 demo ran at 1080p resolution and Ultra settings with RTX on. Optimization has barely been done at this point, though, and the developer also reckons the overall visuals and ray tracing in particular will improve for the final version of the game.

Can't wait to try this with RTX

In Sweden it cost over 1800 usd. It's crazy.

Gwiz1778d ago (Edited 1778d ago )

@rockwhynot pretty sure it's a 2080ti.
Actually found something even higher https://www.newegg.com/msi-...

AuraAbjure1777d ago

Man I remember 10 years ago when the best gpu on the market, the 9800 gtx, cost $350 brand new and it did everything a gamer could possibly ask of it.

Jackhass1779d ago

Definitely looked great on the big demo screen!

Ausbo1779d ago

I might get disagrees for this, but I was hoping this would launch with the new consoles.

It would be great to see how a ps5/Scarlett could run this game. I’m sure there will be a patch for it down the line, but it’ll probably be finished by then

Si-Fly1779d ago

Just buy a PC with an RTX card if you want to see how a next gen console version will look :D

Ausbo1779d ago

I prefer console over PC though

Stanjara1779d ago

Yeah, just give 1500-2000$ for rtx on

harmny1779d ago

If console gamers think they'll get rtx with the new consoles they're delusional. Consoles barely can hit 30fps as it is and they want literally the most expensive thing to render to date.

Sophisticated_Chap1779d ago

You need to have an RTX 2080 at minimum to get just half- descent performance. You need an RTX 2080 TI to get proper performance, and here in Canada, that will set you back a cool $1,600.00 give or take. RTX is not worth it at this point.

@harmny

Well, MS did confirm Scarlett will have hardware accelerated ray tracing, so its not really about believing or not. It will happen.

To what extent? Who knows...
will it be on the same level as what is seen on PC right now? Probably not.. then again, would you have said that next gen consoles would have significantly better loading times than PC next gen? I really doubt that, and yet its going to happen.

We dont really have any idea how AMD is doing ray tracing or even how much has nvidia optimized hardware accelerated ray tracing for their next set of cards to properly measure what can be expected on that front in next gen consoles

sprinterboy1779d ago (Edited 1779d ago )

Agreed. Tbh I didn't expect any kind of Ray racing on nxt gen consoles so anything is a plus for me, audio or Ray tracing 0.5 will do me

tinchotin1778d ago

They also said scarlet can 8k 120 fps, power of the cloud, wait for next e3 like 6 years in a row, dx12 secret sauce, best lineup ever, crackdown is looking good, promised lot of exclusives and then cancelled, you can't flip a switch and deactivate online only gaming, then flipped the switch, and many more things I dont remember right now

--Onilink--1778d ago (Edited 1778d ago )

@tinchotin

They never said it would simultaneously do 8k 120fps, its probably just related to the hdmi setup in the console, as its not just any hdmi that can do those things.

Not really sure how all those other things you mention would be related to the mention of a specific hardware component in the console.

The 10th Rider1778d ago

They'll probably be around the specs of the RTX 2060 Super that will be coming out. Real world performance will probably be more like the 2070 Super, due to console optimization.

It'll be interesting to see what devs do for resolution though. That's not really enough to run a game like Cyberpunk in 60fps 4K. I wouldn't be surprised if we either get games 60fps with a dynamic resolution around 1440P upscaled at or 4K at 30fps. I'm not familiar enough with the technicalities of ray tracing implementation, but my guess would be, if possible, they'll selectively implement it.

MarkyMark891778d ago

Big difference between hardware accelerated Ray Tracing and RTX. Just watch the Unreal Rebirth Demo & Cryteks Ray Tracing demo, then compare those to RTX based demo's, the proof is in the pudding. But competition always breeds innovation, so if they think they can produce a Software based Ray Tracing that compares to Hardware based then I am all for it. Maybe down the line I can finally stop buying Nvidia GPU's, pretty sure my wallet would thank me. But AMD is just slacking as of late on the GPU side soooo.. Still have to wait a couple more weeks to really see what Navi is about. But considering the early specs, still pales when put up against a 2080 or 2080ti.

--Onilink--1778d ago

@MarkyMark89

I think you are confusing the comparison.

Yes, RTX isnt just Ray Tracing, it includes other things, but the big actual difference is Software Accelerated Ray Tracing vs Hardware Accelerated Ray Tracing, which has a significant difference in the performance hit.

Which is why it was a big deal that MS confirmed it was Hardware accelerated and not software based. Though again, the actual scope is very much up in the air

sprinterboy1779d ago

Same buddy, I'm 43 now and normally a 1 playthrough guy (life commitments) but I don't want the game spoiled if I wait for ps5 playthrough (current ps4 base)
I feel this won't play as well seeing it on my Base model and god forbid how it will play on the Xbox S.
I think gamers forget 90% of us will be playing on base models

DigitallyAfflicted1779d ago

I agree we need new consoles by 16 of April 2020 with cp2077 in th bundle!!!

sprinterboy1778d ago

Mind blown if ps5 was April lol

theXtReMe11778d ago

No, I’m absolutely with you dude. I’m not playing this game until the new systems come out. I imagine they will get an upgrade. I can wait.

sprinterboy1778d ago

Yep, really enjoyed days gone, but that last 40hrs, south part of the map was dire performance wise (base model) will def be replaying that again on ps5.
I kinda wish I'd waited to play days gone though on ps5, same with cyberpunk, death stranding and tlou pt2.
My Base model ain't gonna do them games justice :(

FITSniper1778d ago

I think it's pretty likely that 2077 will get a release on the next gen consoles.

Wonder how this will fair on an RTX 2070. Hopefully we can adjust DXR settings.

SA913871779d ago

I would think my 2700x with a 2080 ti should kick its ass

thexmanone1778d ago

I sure hope so, I luv pc gaming but that's a little out of my price range.

I really enjoyed Good Job game...too bad that they are closing

mastershredder21h ago

Considering the level of games they made, I'm surprised that more than 2 people worked there. 45 people (+ outsourcing) making mediocre mobile games, like cut the rope. I mean dude....Nintendo stooped to new lows in quality development and entertainment standards.

thats so crazy haha.

it will never disappear.

darksky2d ago

The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.

Inverno2d ago

Another 8,500 will take their place. Smh

PRIMORDUS2d ago

There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.

lucasnooker2d ago

lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to
