Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements

CD Projket Red adjusted the Cyberpunk 2077 PC specs before the launch of the game's Phantom Liberty expansion, raising all requirements.

What are the Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements? CD Projekt Red's massive RPG has come a long way since its rocky release. The system requirements for the game have also seen some change, but there's nothing to fear as long as your gaming PC isn't more than a decade old.

You won't need the Cyberpunk 2077 in 2025, but if you're aiming for those 4K ray tracing specs, your entire build will likely need an upgrade. The Phantom Liberty DLC introduced the requirements for an SSD but also generally raised the requirements for all performance levels.

Here are the Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements in 2025:

Minimum Recommended
OS Windows 10 64-bit Windows 10 64-bit
U Intel Core i7 6700

Take our Cyberpunk 2077 system requirements PC benchmark test to answer the question… Can I run Cyberpunk 2077?

The Cyberpunk 2077 minimum requirements have risen in every way possible, as was expected. You need at least an Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB, AMD Radeon RX 580, or Intel Arc A380 in your system. Processors see a similar spike too, with the Intel Core i7 6700 and AMD Ryzen 5 1600 setting the new floor, paired with 12GB of RAM.

It's a similar story with the Cyberpunk 2077 recommended specs, which have also seen a jump. The GPU increase isn't too high, with the RTX 2060 Super, Radeon RX 5700 XT, and Arc A770 all being relatively mainstream and affordable pixel pushers. You will, however, need something close to the best gaming U though, as the Intel Core i7 12700 and AMD Ryzen 7 7800X take center stage, in addition to another 4GB of RAM, bringing the total up to 16GB.

While the Cyberpunk 2077 size requirements haven't changed, the device you need to play it on has. Mechanical hard drives have no place in the future, dystopian or otherwise, and you'll now need to play the game on the best SSD your system can handle.
