Can a AMD Radeon R9 Fury X run Cyberpunk 2077?
The AMD Radeon R9 Fury X falls below the minimum requirement for Cyberpunk 2077, and its 4GB of VRAM is under the 6GB the game asks for. Expect it to run poorly or refuse to launch.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.
How the AMD Radeon R9 Fury X measures up
| Requirement | AMD Radeon R9 Fury X | Minimum | Recommended | Result |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GPU performance score | 20 | 10 | 26 | Minimum |
| Video memory | 4 GB | 6 GB | 8 GB | Below |
| Ray tracing | — Not supported | Game supports RT (path) | N/A | |
| Upscaling | FSR | DLSS, FSR | Available | |
Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the medium preset. High settings fall short here, so drop the preset before touching resolution.
At 1440p
Around 28 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 16 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
Upscaling
Cyberpunk 2077 supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports FSR — Quality mode is worth 25–40% more frames. Compare upscalers.
VRAM headroom
At 4GB you are under the 8GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

Frequently asked questions
Can the AMD Radeon R9 Fury X run Cyberpunk 2077?
The AMD Radeon R9 Fury X falls below the minimum requirement for Cyberpunk 2077, and its 4GB of VRAM is under the 6GB the game asks for. Expect it to run poorly or refuse to launch.
What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 46 FPS at 1080p, 28 FPS at 1440p and 16 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the medium preset at 1080p. Then enable upscaling on Quality mode before lowering anything further.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
