Cyberpunk 2077 runs 30 FPS with ray tracing and DLSS in 8K on RTX 3090
The news on Cyberpunk 2077 does not stop, today an item that falls a bit more in the fun category. You've all seen the benchmarks here on Guru3D; the game is brutal.
The game now also has been tested on 8K with a GeForce RTX 3090, and we've all heard NVIDIA say it, this game makes 8K gaming possible. When DLSS is switched on, the deep learning supersampling technique, a playable frame rate of an average of 31, is achieved. Disabling ray tracing also does not make a huge difference, then the frame rate rises to 38. We should add that this is a factory overclocked RTX 3090 as well.
It is interesting to observe that playing the game in this high resolution demands the maximum from the video memory. The game takes up 21GB of the graphics memory without ray tracing, and with ray tracing, almost the maximum that is available. Below the results courtesy of TT.

DLSS "Ultra Performance" means it's actually rendered at barely 1440p...
... with quite horrible upscaling quality.
This "Gaming at 8K" is nothing more than a bad meme.
Move along, nothing to see here folks !
(Correction, what we should see here is the fantastic 6.6 fps slideshow with DLSS off, that's the real benchmark)
you're confusing upscaling quality with render resolution
ultra performance looks horrible on lower resolutions,but if it's rendering from 1440p,it's gonna do very well
here's 1080p native vs 1080p reconstructed
dlss makes a night and day difference at 1080p.reconstructing for 1440p is gonna look great,though it will not be a native 8K image.

The sharpness of 8k is wasted at 30 fps...screenshots will look nice, but in motion...

That's performance DLSS you're showing, not ultra performance which looks much much worse. The RTX 3080 shits itself and dies at 1440p with no DLSS, and the RTX 3090 is barely any faster. Forget 4K, and LMFAO at 8K, fuck off nVidia.
In fact, despite CDPR's claim to the contrary, I get enough of a performance uplift with an R9 3900X + RTX 3080 with the SMT enabler mod that it's halfway to being the the same as using the 3900X + a 3090.

No chance the 3090 can do nice 8k gaming, can barely do watchdogs legion smooth at 1440
