I was planning on picking up Cyberpunk a while ago but noticed I no longer reach the recommended system requirements since the last update. Is it worth upgrading from a Ryzen 7 3800X to a Ryzen 7 5700X3d? The 5700X3d seems like the best choice as it seems like a pretty decent jump in gaming performance without having to buy a new motherboard. And although the 5800X3d would be even better it’s ~£300 compared to ~£200 for the 5700X3d so doesn’t seem worth the price difference.

My gpu is an RTX2080 super so that would probably become the bottleneck, but I’m planning on upgrading that a bit later on if I upgrade the cpu first (not sure what to go with for that either yet, I’m still debating between Nvidia and AMD)

    Not really, I do use VMs but not normally just 1 or 2 at a time, and I don’t think I’ve ever run into cpu issues with them (usually it’s disk usage if anything) Maybe the occasional bit of emulation but nothing that’s caused me any issues so far.

    I’m still struggling between Nvidia and AMD on the gpu side, I’m looking at the 4070/ti/super vs the RX7800 XT, and the Nvidia cards seem to win in everything except VRAM and Linux compatibility. And there’s not much of a price difference between the standard 4070 and the RX7800 XT
