[SOLVED] Which cpu is a minimum for 1440p ray tracing CyberPunk 2077 with a rtx 3080?

[thyra06]

I am set to acquire an Asus Tuf Gaming 3080 and I'm planning to play Cyberpunk 2077 at 1440p ray tracing. I'm just wondering which is the minimum CPU for such settings. At the moment I have an i7-6700, which I assume isn't enough?

Until it releases and benchmarks are out for the final version it is impossible to answer.

So you would recommend just waiting and upgrading if needed?

Yes. Upgrading without reliable facts is a guessing game and could lead to wasting money.

Your current CPU will run Cyberpunk without a doubt. Beyond that, it's just a matter of what you're willing to pay for xx more FPS by a CPU+mobo replacement.
