Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the high preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Around 49 FPS on high. Playable, but drop to medium or enable upscaling for a stable 60.
At 4K
Around 29 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
Upscaling
Cyberpunk 2077 supports DLSS and FSR. Your card supports DLSS — Quality mode is the best first change you can make. Compare upscalers.

Frequently asked questions
Can the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop run Cyberpunk 2077?
The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop handles Cyberpunk 2077 comfortably — roughly 80 FPS at 1080p and 49 FPS at 1440p on high settings.
What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 80 FPS at 1080p, 49 FPS at 1440p and 29 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the high 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.
