Here are the optimal settings for playing Cyberpunk and the Phantom Liberty DLC, with an RTX 5090 at 1440p and 4K resolutions.
The RTX 5090 is currently the fastest consumer-grade GPU available. Well, it’s not the outright fastest in every aspect. The Quadro variant of the 5090 is approximately 15% quicker and more efficient, albeit at a $10,000 premium. That said, playing Cyberpunk: 2077 with the 5090 means you’ll want to try out path tracing right out of the box, because the card can efficiently run path tracing at 1440p. These settings, alongside a few mod-related suggestions, will drastically improve your gaming experience in both the base game and the Phantom Liberty DLC.

Note:Anything lower than the Ryzen 9 9900X3D or Ryzen 9 9950X3D will result in a CPU bottleneck with the 5090, as path tracing is both CPU- and GPU-intensive.
