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.

At 1080p, all quality settings exceed 147 FPS, suitable for 144Hz+ monitors. At 1440p, all settings exceed 134 FPS. At 4K, all settings exceed 81 FPS.
The GeForce RTX 4090 is 131% above the recommended GPU (GeForce RTX 2060 Super) for Cyberpunk 2077. The Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX is 317% above the recommended CPU (Core i7-12700).
The Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX sets the FPS ceiling at 1080p (low/medium/high), 1440p low, 4k (low/medium), while the GeForce RTX 4090 still has headroom. The FPS ceiling is closely matched at 1080p ultra, 1440p (medium/high/ultra), 4k (high/ultra).
Approximated average price on current market:
Combo price: $11528.97. At 1080p Ultra, this combo delivers 147 FPS, equivalent to 0.01 FPS per dollar.

This section is based on estimated CPU/GPU FPS ceilings, not utilization percentages. Adjacent heavier settings are lightly stabilized to remove prediction jitter that would otherwise create impossible reversals.
At 1080p low, the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX sets the ceiling at about 332 FPS, while the GeForce RTX 4090 could reach 404 FPS. In this scenario, the CPU limits the GPU potential by 18% (FPS gap: 72 FPS). Overall distribution: CPU limits 5/12 cells, GPU limits 0/12, balanced 7/12.
The Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX and GeForce RTX 4090 stay close in effective frame-generation ceiling across most presets, so neither side consistently suppresses the other by a large margin.
| Resolution | Low | Medium | High | Ultra |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p (Full HD) | CPU Limits GPU 18% | CPU Limits GPU 11% | CPU Limits GPU 7% | Balanced |
| 1440p (2K QHD) | CPU Limits GPU 10% | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
| 4K (Ultra HD) | CPU Limits GPU 10% | Balanced | Balanced | Balanced |
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 and then monotonic-smoothed across heavier presets and resolutions, not generic utilization heuristics.

Yes, the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX paired with the GeForce RTX 4090 can run Cyberpunk 2077 smoothly up to 4k achieving around 81 FPS at Ultra quality. Your GPU is 131% above the recommended specs, and your CPU is 317% above the recommended requirements.
This CPU + GPU combo costs approximately $11528.97 ($9879.97 CPU + $1649 GPU). Your Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX provides phenomenal top-tier performance but at a premium enthusiast price. Since you are essentially at the ceiling of current hardware capabilities, there are no meaningful performance upgrades available. However, if you wanted a more cost-effective build that still delivers a great experience, you could theoretically step down to a high-end processor with a significantly better value rating. For example, the Ryzen Threadripper PRO 9995WX is a great upgrade option for around $11699 (Rank #482 for value).
Your Ryzen Threadripper PRO 7995WX is already an incredibly powerful processor. While it's technically the first component to hit its limit (which is completely normal in state-of-the-art builds), there is no meaningful upgrade path that would drastically improve your Cyberpunk 2077 performance right now. CPU fully utilized at: 1080p low, 1080p medium, 1080p high, 1440p low, 4k low, 4k medium.
Cyberpunk 2077 does not currently support Frame Generation technologies like DLSS 3 or FSR 3. Your performance is based entirely on native rendering. If the game adds support in a future update, newer GPUs will benefit the most.
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 Threadripper PRO 7995WX and GeForce RTX 4090 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.
