The benchmark for modern graphical fidelity. Update 2.0 and Phantom Liberty raised the requirements, making an SSD mandatory. The dense city and NPC AI require strong multi-thread CPU performance. Path Tracing ('Overdrive Mode') is a feature reserved for high-end RTX 40 series cards with Frame Generation.

The GeForce RTX 3060 is 3% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Cyberpunk 2077. The Ryzen 7 7800X3D is 0% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-12700).
Cyberpunk 2077 supports: DLSS Frame Gen, FSR 3 Frame Gen, AFMF. The GeForce RTX 3060 can use FSR 3 Frame Gen, providing up to 1.5x-2x frame rate boost.
The GeForce RTX 3060 sets the FPS ceiling at all 1080p settings, all 1440p settings, all 4k settings, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has additional frame-generation headroom.
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $673. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 72 FPS, equivalent to 0.11 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages.
At 4k ultra, the GeForce RTX 3060 sets the ceiling at about 21 FPS, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D has headroom up to 82 FPS. In this scenario, the GPU limits the CPU potential by 74% (FPS gap: 61 FPS). Overall distribution: GPU limits 12/12 cells, CPU limits 0/12, balanced 0/12.
Your GeForce RTX 3060 is the limiting side in the heaviest mismatch. This means part of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D frame-generation potential remains unused in those settings.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | GPU Limits CPU 49% | GPU Limits CPU 53% | GPU Limits CPU 59% | GPU Limits CPU 57% |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | GPU Limits CPU 64% | GPU Limits CPU 66% | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 70% |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | GPU Limits CPU 66% | GPU Limits CPU 71% | GPU Limits CPU 73% | GPU Limits CPU 74% |
We estimate the maximum FPS the processor can sustain and the maximum FPS the graphics card can sustain in each setting, then compare those limits directly.
Limit Factor formula: (stronger - weaker) / stronger. Example: if CPU ceiling is 200 FPS and GPU ceiling is 140 FPS, then GPU limits CPU by 30%.
CPU Limits GPU means the processor ceiling is lower. GPU Limits CPU means the graphics ceiling is lower. Balanced means the FPS ceilings are close enough that the gap is negligible.
A component can still be the FPS limiter without reaching 100% utilization. The displayed percentages are derived from FPS ceilings, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Ryzen 7 7800X3D paired with the GeForce RTX 3060 can run Cyberpunk 2077 smoothly up to 1080p achieving around 72 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 3% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 0% below the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $673 ($384 CPU (Rank #212 Value) + $289 GPU (Rank #30 Value)). Your build is already very cost-efficient, but if you want even more FPS, the next good option is upgrading the GPU. For example, upgrading to the GeForce RTX 5060 for around $299 (Rank #2 for value) could deliver noticeably better performance.
For Cyberpunk 2077, upgrading the GPU would give you the most noticeable improvement. The GeForce RTX 3060 is the limiting factor here, while the Ryzen 7 7800X3D still has spare capacity. A more powerful GPU would unlock higher FPS, especially at higher resolutions and quality presets. GPU-limited at: 1080p high, 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p ultra, 1440p high, 1440p low, 1440p medium, 1440p ultra, 4k high, 4k low, 4k medium, 4k ultra.
Yes! Cyberpunk 2077 supports DLSS Frame Gen and FSR 3 Frame Gen and AFMF, and your GeForce RTX 3060 is compatible with FSR 3 Frame Gen. With Frame Generation enabled, you can expect a 1.5x-2x FPS multiplier on top of native framerates, significantly boosting perceived smoothness.
Cyberpunk 2077 requires at minimum a Core i7-6700 (CPU) and GeForce GTX 1060 (GPU) with 12 GB RAM and 70 GB (SSD) storage. For the recommended experience, you need a Core i7-12700 and GeForce RTX 2060 Super with 16 GB RAM. Your Ryzen 7 7800X3D and GeForce RTX 3060 both exceed the recommended specs, so you're well-positioned for a great experience.
These Cyberpunk 2077 FPS results are not arbitrary numbers. They come from calculations informed by thousands of real gaming benchmarks, and the typical accuracy range is around 10% to 15%. That makes them far more useful than generic FPS calculators that simply invent values without a benchmark foundation. Actual in-game performance can still vary with drivers, updates, RAM configuration, cooling, and the exact scene being rendered.
Performance estimates are based on synthetic benchmarks and hardware capabilities.
Results may vary based on drivers, OS, and background processes.
