📋 About This Mod
This tool allows to configure hidden settings in Cyberpunk 2077. You can squeeze more FPS out of it this way.
It works by generating configration files, and will not modify the game executable. So new Patches will still work with this Tool.
You can pick out of 4 Presets, or just play around with the custom settings.
Disabling Async compute on newer cards will lower the FPS. But try both out just to be sure.
Also it does not degrade the image quality so you are save to try it.
-
[]Disable Async compute ~ 2-5 fps more (Some older Nvidia GPUs can even get up to 25 FPS!)
[
]Optimized Preset ~ 5-10 fps more[]Low ~ 10-20 fps more
[]Very Low ~ 14-24 fps more
Presets were made with an AMD RADEON RX480 GPU.
I recommend to try out the Low preset first. If you got a beefier GPU, go for the Optimized Preset.
My base framerate was ~45 fps, but with the "low" preset i get now 60 fps without much of quality lose. (Played on almost low anyway before)
Use the Very Low preset only when you really need, because it makes the game ugly.
The tool will apply the new config, when you close it.
How to install?
Copy the executable into your root Cyberpunk 2077 folder.
Example Path for default install:
Steam C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Cyberpunk 2077\
GOG Galaxy C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Cyberpunk 2077\
I also recommend to use the PerformanceOverhaulCyberpunk in combination with this tool to reach max performance.
