CD Projekt Red has just released the extensive patch 1.61 for its dystopian action RPG Cyberpunk 2077 (test), which brings AMD FSR 2.1 into play. Nvidia DLSS 3 for the new GeForce RTX 4090 (test) and the next generation Nvidia Ada Lovelace models are currently left out.

AMD’s FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.1, on the other hand, was included in the update and is now available for Windows PCs, as well as PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S. A performance boost can be expected, especially in gaming. game consoles.

AMD FSR 2.1 precedes Nvidia DLSS 3

The fact that FSR 2.1 manages to do it before DLSS 3 in Cyberpunk 2077 is particularly surprising given that Nvidia never tires of including the title in benchmarks and, in cooperation with CD Projekt Red, has even offered a GeForce RTX 4090 FE. strictly limited. for a competition

Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 1.61 Highlights

Presets enable FSR and DLSS automatically

As the editors at ComputerBase were able to assess in a first test of Cyberpunk 2077 v1.61, AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.1 and DLSS 2, which Nvidia now calls DLSS Super Resolution, are activated automatically according to the preset.

While AMD FSR 2.1 is automatically enabled with the Ultra preset and also on Nvidia’s GeForce graphics cards, the system’s automatic choice in such cases falls to DLSS 2 if the highest possible ray tracing preset is selected.

Why the game makes this selection automatically cannot be said at this time.
