Can I run Cyberpunk 2077 with a GeForce RTX 4060?

High in Cyberpunk 2077 is a different class of card: that tier starts at index 30 and the GeForce RTX 4060 reads 16, 47% short, so recommended is where this one belongs.

The GeForce RTX 4060 arrived 3 years after Cyberpunk 2077 shipped, so the game was never designed with it in mind: 22 of the 47 cards we track stop at the same point in Cyberpunk 2077. It sits 31 of 47 on our index.

The weakest link is graphics card: this rig brings 16 against the 30 that Cyberpunk 2077 asks for at the high tier. Everything else in the rig is already past that line.

That readout is the best this card can do in Cyberpunk 2077: it assumes nothing else in the machine holds it back. Your own processor and memory can only lower it, never raise it.

The same card with three different processors

In Cyberpunk 2077 the processor beside a GeForce RTX 4060 changes the answer, which is why a card-only verdict is not worth much here. Each row assumes 16 GB of system memory.

Cheapest way up one tier

graphics card: GeForce RTX 3080 10GB

The GeForce RTX 4060 sits at index 16 and the high tier starts at 30.

That is the smallest part in our catalogue that clears the high tier - not the fastest one, and not a price claim: we hold no price data, so "cheapest" here means "least upgrade that does the job".

This part alone will not get you there. video memory also falls short of that tier.
