Looking to dust off Cyberpunk 2077 for the new 2.0 update? If you want the game looking, and running, like Johnny Silverhand’s Porsche 911 Turbo, you should enable one of the game’s many available upscaling technologies. You have a few to choose from: DLSS, FSR, and XeSS.

You can take your pick of the lot with a modern GeForce graphics card installed in your PC, though I would stick with Nvidia’s own DLSS. Cyberpunk 2077 has become the poster child for new DLSS versions, including DLSS 3.5 with Ray Reconstruction, and it looks real good. But those with AMD or Intel cards, or older Nvidia GPUs, don’t have that option available to them.

(OP: Article has some comparison shots with sliders)

    I didnt read the article but the benchmark numbers indicate that it is unfair to compare the settings based on their terminology. XeSS Balanced performs(as in fps) equally to FSR Quality. So no wonder when you compare XeSS Balanced with FSR Balanced, the XeSS will look better.

    The reviewer should have normalized the comparisons for similar fps, not for whatever word term the option uses.

      The article wasn’t really about benchmarking, but rather just that XeSS will likely just look better than FSR and that you can still run XeSS on AMD cards.
