How to maxed out Cyberpunk 2077 configuration for increase FPS and Performance
A post from a reddit user named u/Thephoneixroyal became a trending post in reddit sub /r/cyberpunkgame, because it is not only increases the overall performance of the game but also unlock much more possibilities on tweaking the in-game configuration. However, the increase in performance will only benefit for those who has higher specs. For those who has lower specs, try to be cautious on trying this tweak.
Table of Contents
But before anything else, we have to warn you that these changes may possibly create unexpected crash in the game or to your Windows. Maxing out the game configuration will also increase the CPU usage up to 100%, as well as power consumption will further increase.
In our case, we are using GTX 1080 Ti GPU and our fps are ranging from 50fps to 60fps with the default settings and in 1080p. After tweaking we were able to peak 80fps and at lowest average of 65fps.
If you have more RAM you could also potentially increase the performance as the game only allotted 1.53GB for the game. And in GPU they only allotted 3GB which is very low if you have OP graphics card.
How to tweak
To tweak your Cyberpunk 2077 configuration, you need to go to the installation folder, in our case its E:/GOGGames/Cyberpunk 2077/.
Now, you have to find and enter these folder /engine/config/.
From here, edit the file memory_pool_budgets.csv with a Notepad. The default configuration are the following:
;;; ; ^[1-9][0-9]*(B|KB|MB|GB) - Pool budget ; -1 - Pool does not exist on the current platform ; 0 - Budget will be computed dynamically at runtime ; PC ; Durango ; Orbis PoolRoot ; ; ; PoolCPU ; 1536MB ; 1536MB ; 1536MB PoolGPU ; 3GB ; 3GB ; 3GB PoolFlexible ; -1 ; -1 ; 0 PoolDefault ; 1KB ; 1KB ; 1KB PoolLegacyOperator ; 1MB ; 1MB ; 1MB PoolFrame ; 32MB ; 32MB ; 32MB PoolDoubleBufferedFrame ; 32MB ; 32MB ; 32MB PoolEngine ; 432MB ; 432MB ; 432MB PoolRefCount ; 16MB ; 16MB ; 16MB PoolDebug ; 512MB ; 512MB ; 512MB PoolBacked ; 512MB ; 512MB ; 512MB
Now, you need to edit the PC's PoolCPU and PC's PoolGPU. To know the maximum settings you can add in the configuration you just need to know how many RAM and Video RAM for GPU you have.
For GTX 1080 ti, it has 11GB of Video RAM, while we have 64GB of RAM. It is not necessary to maxed out your Ram on the PoolCPU, but it requires 4GB extra space for other processes in your computer.
Basically, if you want to maxed out everything you can adjust PoolGPU to 11GB and PoolCPU to 16GB, you could go as high as 60GB, but it will not add any improvements. Here is how it looks like.
;;; ; ^[1-9][0-9]*(B|KB|MB|GB) - Pool budget ; -1 - Pool does not exist on the current platform ; 0 - Budget will be computed dynamically at runtime ; PC ; Durango ; Orbis PoolRoot ; ; ; PoolCPU ; 16GB ; 1536MB ; 1536MB PoolGPU ; 11GB ; 3GB ; 3GB PoolFlexible ; -1 ; -1 ; 0 PoolDefault ; 1KB ; 1KB ; 1KB PoolLegacyOperator ; 1MB ; 1MB ; 1MB PoolFrame ; 32MB ; 32MB ; 32MB PoolDoubleBufferedFrame ; 32MB ; 32MB ; 32MB PoolEngine ; 432MB ; 432MB ; 432MB PoolRefCount ; 16MB ; 16MB ; 16MB PoolDebug ; 512MB ; 512MB ; 512MB PoolBacked ; 512MB ; 512MB ; 512MB
If you don't know how much Video RAM your GPU has, search the internet for its specs or simply follow our instruction below.
Check available RAM (PoolCPU)
Open up Task Manager (ALT+CTRL+DEL), then go to performance tab. You'll find Memory in there, that's the available RAM you have in your computer or laptop. The allowable PoolCPU you can set is -4GB of your available. In our case, we have 64.0 GB, the maximum PoolCPU we set is 60.0GB.
Check available GPU VRAM (PoolGPU)
To check your available VRAM, you need to search dxdiag in cortana. Open it up and it will show the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, click the Display 1 tab to show the device specs. From here, the Display Memory (VRAM) is your VRAM. The maximum PoolGPU you can set is your VRAM value.
Once done, save the file and open up Cyberpunk 2077. You'll notice everything starting to smooth and if you have FPS counter, it will boost to 65fps to 80 fps.
Of course, the improvements will still depends on the specs you currently have. For those who has less than 3GB of VRAM, you will not see any difference as it is the maxed out.
Increasing Field of View
If you want to increase the FOV (Field of View) in Cyberpunk, you can also do that by changing some settings in the configuration files. The default FOV in the game is pretty narrow, if you want a widen the view you can increase it up to 150.
To edit this configuration, you need to open up the options.json with notepad file at E:\GOGGames\Cyberpunk 2077\r6\config\settings\platform\pc.
Then find and search for "FieldOfView", until you find this default line of codes:
"options": [ { "name": "FieldOfView", "display_name": "UI-Settings-Video-Basic-FieldOfView", "description": "", "order": 2, "is_visible": true, "in_pre_game": true, "in_game": true, "update_policy": "immediately", "can_be_restored_to_default": true, "type": "float", "value": 80.0, "default_value": 80.0, "min_value": 70.0, "max_value": 100.0, "step_value": 5.0 },
Now, you can increase the max_value up to 150. Though, you can increase it at any value you want. Then don't forget to set the default value.
Once done, your code should look like below.
"group_name": "/graphics/basic", "options": [ { "name": "FieldOfView", "display_name": "UI-Settings-Video-Basic-FieldOfView", "description": "", "order": 2, "is_visible": true, "in_pre_game": true, "in_game": true, "update_policy": "immediately", "can_be_restored_to_default": true, "type": "float", "value": 80.0, "default_value": 130.0, "min_value": 70.0, "max_value": 150.0, "step_value": 5.0 },
Note: Increasing Field Of View won't give you performance boost, it just an enhancement on your gameplay so you can see wider area when playing. Below are the differences for FOV.
When set to 150. You might get motion sickness when you try this maximum value and some assets will load delay.
Best FOV so far is 120.
The default maximum FOV, at 100.
The super default FOV at 80.
Best Bitrate for Recording Gameplay in OBS or Elgato
One thing that you will encounter when recording a gameplay either in OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) or from an Elgato capture card (HD60 S, HD60 S+, 4K60 S+, 4K60 PRO), even in AverMedia, there is this bitrate that makes you clueless on what it is for. The bitrate is the number of bits per second that it can transmit media, for recording gameplay its the data from your recorder to the storage device.
Aside from transferring the media to the storage, there is another factor that affects bitrate, this is the encoder, that processes the data and compression, most of the encoder commonly used in recording are the HVEC/H265 and H264 which gives the best compression.
Basically, the bitrate settings is for the gameplay's quality and file size. The higher the bitrate, the higher the quality and the file size. The lower the bitrate, its the opposite. However, you can find a better bitrate settings that produces unnoticeable changes from high quality with reduce file size.
Bitrate Comparison
So, let's dig in. In our testing, We will also be using 1-minute average recording to compare the file size and for comparing the quality, we will take a capture after the movement and motion blur, so we can capture the noises and low quality portion of the video. And the following hardware and settings:
- Hardware: Elgato 4K60 S+
- Storage: SD Card with 120MB/s write speed
- Resolution: 1920 x 1080
- Frame Rate: 60fps
To help you decide which bitrate settings is for you, we have listed the file size and quality comparison below for each bitrate settings. The comparison is incremental with 10,000Kbit/s or 10Mbit/s.
So far, the best settings for bitrate in terms of quality and sizes is at 40,000Kbit/s (sweet spot). If you want to further down the file size, you could go as low as 30,000Kbit/s that somehow maintains the quality and if you want for more quality you could go as high as 50,000Kbit/s. Using above 50Mbit/s doesn't really give noticeable changes or improvements.
Even in NVIDIA's GeForce Experience also uses 50,000Kbit/s as their 100% high quality for 1080p recording. We will be also adding more bitrate comparison for 4K and other resolution.
Video Comparison
For your reference, we also uploaded the video of the comparison above so you can check it yourself.
Storage (SD Card, HDD, SSD) and Bitrate
It is also important that you'll be using a storage that is above your bitrate speed. For example, if you're using 100,000Kbit/s bitrate, you need to make sure that your storage device write speed is above 100MB/s, or else, it will have problem transferring files and data corruption.
This is similar to DSLR camera that has minimum write speed requirement when using SD Cards.
How to Breach Protocol (Simplified Sequence) in Cyberpunk 2077
There are so much hacking happening in Cyberpunk 2077, that you might misrecognized it of being a new DLC version of Watch Dogs game. There is this certain hacking activity called Breach Protocol that requires a lot of time to figure out how it works and you are probably here because you are looking for an answer.
Table of Contents
In this guide, we will try to explain in an easy way on how to complete the Breach Protocol.
Introduction
There are four different section in the Breach Protocol. First, we need to understand what these are, so below are the following information:
- Breach Time Remaining – Basically, this is the time you need to complete the puzzle. If you are unable to complete it on the given time, it will automatically fail.
- Buffer – This is the number of moves you are allowed to select for the code matrix. By default, there are only 4 moves.
- Sequence Required to Upload – This is the number of sequences you need to solve. At first, there are only 1 sequence you need to complete, but as you go by, the number of sequences becomes 3. Well, basically, you are only required to complete one sequence and the other sequence are just optional. Of course, getting the third sequence which is harder will give you more rewards. While solving the other sequence at the same time will give you extra reward as well.
- Code Matrix – The 5×5 matrix is the puzzle; you need to match Sequence Required to Upload at the code matrix. At first you need to select the vertical matrix, then horizontal and so on.
How to Create Simplified Sequence
You probably see tutorials from other websites and YouTube that only discusses how to solve the matrix. But here, you will learn how to write a simplified form of the sequence so that you will get more rewards.
Since the Breaching Time will only start counting when you have selected your first move, you have enough time to simplify the sequence by just using a pencil and a paper. Or even in a notepad.
First, you need to create two 4 x 3 or 5 x 3 (Optional) box matrix in a sheet of paper. Here you'll write the initial formula sequence and the simplified formula. You can also print these layout (1-pair per breaches).
Once it is all prepared, we can move on creating a simplified sequence.
Formula Sequence
When we try to solve the puzzle in Breach Protocol, we get the example sequence.
In the left box matrix, write the following. (We just added the DATAMINE label so that you will have a reference on what we are saying. hehehe)
DATAMINE_V1 | E9 | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | E9 | E9 | ||
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | BD | 1C |
Simplifying the Sequence
The next step is to arrange the 3-formula sequence that will allow us to make 1 single simplified sequence. To arrange the formula, you just need to move them in the boxes and create a horizontal matches. Note, you are not allowed to change the order of the sequence.
In above example, we can see that the DATAMINE_V2: E9 and E9 are not present in V3, there is also no space if we try to move and match them, so V2 is not solvable. But for DATAMINE_V3, 1C is present and there is still one space available for V3, with that we can move the BD, BD, 1C one step to the right and place E9 on the first move instead. This will give us a simplified formula of E9, BD, BD, 1C which allow us to solve the two Datamine at the same time.
The simplified sequence:
DATAMINE_V1 | E9 | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | ||||
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | BD | 1C | |
Simplified | E9 | BD | BD | 1C |
If you understand what we are saying :), you can now move on solving the matrix. If not, we have prepared more example below for your reference.
More Examples
We will also add more example for other sequence that are not solvable, partially solvable and completely solvable.
Example 1 (All Sequence Solvable)
DATAMINE_V1 | 55 | 55 | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | 55 | 55 | BD | |
DATAMINE_V3 | 55 | 1C | 55 |
The simplified sequence is 55, 1C, 1C and 55. We've move the other 55 on V1 to the 3rd row so that it will match on other 55. Then the 55 and BD of V2 was moved to the most right. But this will only solve DATAMINE_V1 and DATAMINE_V3.
DATAMINE_V1 | 55 | 55 | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | 55 | 55 | BD | |
DATAMINE_V3 | 55 | 1C | 55 | |
Simplified | 55 | 1C | 55 | BD |
Example 2 (Two sequence Solvable)
DATAMINE_V1 | 55 | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | 1C | 1C | 1C | |
DATAMINE_V3 | 1C | BD | E9 |
The simplified sequence is 1C, 1C, BD and E9 which solve DATAMINE_V1 and DATAMINE_V3. We cannot solve the V2 because there are only 1C on V3. However, you can solve V1 and V2 but it will give you fewer rewards. So our best choice for more rewards is V1 and V3.
DATAMINE_V1 | 55 | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | ||||
DATAMINE_V3 | 1C | BD | E9 | |
Simplified | 1C | 1C | BD | E9 |
Example 3 (Two sequence Solvable)
DATAMINE_V1 | 55 | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | BD | BD | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | E9 | BD |
The simplified sequence is BD, E9, BD and 55, solving the DATAMINE_V2 and DATAMINE_V3. The V1 is not solvable because 55 and 1C is not in the V3. We moved the BD and 55 to the most right so that it will match the V3 sequence.
DATAMINE_V1 | ||||
DATAMINE_V2 | BD | BD | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | E9 | BD | |
Simplified | BD | E9 | BD | 55 |
Example 4 (Two Sequence Solvable)
DATAMINE_V1 | 1C | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | BD | 55 | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V3 | 1C | BD | BD |
The simplified sequence is 1C, 1C, BD and BD. Allowing us to solve the DATAMINE_V1 and DATAMINE_V3. However, V2 is not solvable because BD, 55 and 55 are not in the V3. But sequence of V1 can be match by moving the sequence of V3 to the most right.
DATAMINE_V1 | 1C | 1C | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | ||||
DATAMINE_V3 | 1C | BD | BD | |
Simplified | 1C | 1C | BD | BD |
Example 5 (ALL Sequence Solvable)
DATAMINE_V1 | BD | 55 | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | 55 | E9 | ||
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | 1C | 55 |
The simplified sequence is BD, 1C, 55 and E9 that solves DATAMINE_V1 and DATAMINE_V3. All sequence are solvable because all of the characters order of sequence matches together. V1's 55 can be moved to the 3rd row, V2's 55 and E9 to the most right, matching all of the sequence.
DATAMINE_V1 | BD | 55 | ||
DATAMINE_V2 | 55 | E9 | ||
DATAMINE_V3 | BD | 1C | 55 | |
Simplified | BD | 1C | 55 | E9 |
Example 6 (One Sequence Solvable) – In this example, obviously, you can only solve DATAMINE_V3 because there are no longer room for moving the characters for V1 and V2.
DATAMINE_V1 | BD | E9 | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V2 | 1C | 55 | ||
DATAMINE_V3 | 55 | BD | 55 | 1C |
The simplified sequence is just the DATAMINE_V3. The problem here is that V1 and V2 character order didn't match V3 and its impossible to match them with the 4 available moves.
DATAMINE_V1 | ||||
DATAMINE_V2 | ||||
DATAMINE_V3 | 55 | BD | 55 | 1C |
Simplified | 55 | BD | 55 | 1C |
Example 8 (Two Sequence Solvable) – In this example, we will try not to solve V3, but rather the V1 and V2 only.
DATAMINE_V1 | BD | 1C | 1C | |
DATAMINE_V2 | 1C | 1C | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V3 | 55 | 1C | BD |
The simplified sequence is BD, 1C, 1C and 55. But this will only solve DATAMINE_V1 and DATAMINE_V3. However, you can still choose to answer DATAMINE_V3 alone which is 55, 1C and BD.
DATAMINE_V1 | BD | 1C | 1C | |
DATAMINE_V2 | 1C | 1C | 55 | |
DATAMINE_V3 | ||||
Simplified | BD | 1C | 1C | 55 |
How to Solve the Matrix
Since we already have the simplified sequence, you can now solve the Breach Protocol just like the first time you encounter it.
First, you need to find a path that your sequence will match. Since the initial selection of row is vertical, you need to make sure that the next horizontal selection contains the next sequence.
If there are no longer moves available for the sequence, it will automatically fail.
Once you've successfully selected all of the sequence, you are good to go.
