A question about the benchmark application...

[Redeyeflight]

According to the benchmark application I will not be able to run this game on the lowest settings without periodic stutters and audio artifacts. I find this to be unlikely considering the level of fidelity i'm able to get out of other games on the same system, including photo realistic moded Cyberpunk 2077. I'm wondering if there is just something wrong with the benchmark.

My specs are for an off spec Alienware M16 R2 laptop...
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 155H (22 CPUs)
Memory: 16384MB RAM
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC
Device Type: Full Device
Display Memory: 17006 MB
Dedicated Memory: 7948 MB
Mux Target GPU: dGPU
Overclocking disabled, fans maxed.

it's not the benchmark, it's the game bad optimization. me myself holding back to buy the game because of this so called AAA optimization. lol

Cyberpunk is a game that has years of fixes and optimizations behind. Don’t target it.

16GB RAM is not much nowadays. I’m using 18-20GB when in game.

Laptop GPU doesn’t help either. And it’s only 8GB VRAM which is atrocious nowadays.

Maybe at a later date if the game gets optimized, but currently it’s very beefy.

Your specs are at the very minimum (or below, given that’s a laptop GPU) in ideal conditions should get you to 30fps/ 720p as per their sys req. in IDEAL conditions. In real life, you’ll struggle a lot.

So, it's not ACTUALLY a laptop GPU.

It is a full device, not discrete, and my hardware MUX switch is set to completely bypass integrated graphics.

Turns the laptop into a power hog but it just about totally eliminates all the downsides people usually associate with "GPU's" on lesser laptop designs.

I'll accept the RAM and VRAM explanation though. Sounds reasonable.
