We also got the 2.3 Update for Cyberpunk recently, but that patch on PC, at least, does not contain any major performance updates or improvements, as far as I can see in its patch notes.

For the 3060 Ti, I also had to use Patch 2.0 footage, with some from the 1.62 update too, since I didn’t do many resolutions the last time I tested the game, when Phantom Liberty launched.

That said, I feel it’s more than enough testing to compare both GPUs on my system, as usual, and I’m happy with the results achieved: quite similar to what I’ve seen in other intensive games.

I can enjoy Cyberpunk 2077 with Path Tracing now and decent resolution and output frame-rates, while keeping a high level of fluidity, thanks to Multi Frame Generation, which is what’s been designed for, after all.

With so many good updates, over the years, it’s no surprise that this game runs so smoothly.

As usual, I hope this can be useful to any of you, and I will see you next time : )
