Sure the game can run on HDD, but CDPR will no longer test the game on HDD and you will likely see some oddities, like for example many duplicate/clone NPCs.Perfomance is quite improved compared to 1.63.
Running on GTX 1050 (4gb), 16gb Ram, HDD, locked to 30fps at Steam deck quality with some at high and medium. rarely drops.
SSD is exaggeration for minimum
Sounds good! I’ve mostly the same system (except with an RTX 3060 12GB, and Intel NVME SSD), so I’ll probably go ahead and give 2.0 a shot. Haven’t gotten very deep into the 2nd part of the game, so I’ll probably just start again.I find that I can still run the 2.0 version quite well on my old system.
i7 core 4790K
16 gb RAM
1660 geforce 6 gb
With old hard drives (win Ready Boost) I do get good performance on moderate settings.
According to Daniel Owens video, it does seem that PL, in Dogtown atleast, seem to be more resource heavy. From what I can gather atleast. Would be interesting too see how things go at launch. Right now I am just looking foward to finally play the game, even if I need to sacrifice image quality...
my concern is how now even low setting , CP 2077 is burning our laptop
only with CP 2077 having issues with temp , tryed all thing , after more 1h of play , temp GPU going over 82/85°C
i tested this on 1.63 with lastest ndvia drivers , both cpu/GPU going 65/75°C
if turn on CPU boost , CPU 96°C , GPU peak 87°C ( lucky there's safety mesure , at peak 87 my gpu slow down )
tested , other resolution , dlss auto , quality ,
less issues with FSR going less hight temp
each time i get those crazy temps , i reload (my save ) the game by the main menu
like i said , not getting issues temp on 1.63 , all fines , the game running very smooth , i even run the game even at RT medium preset with high quality texture ..
there's no visual gab 1.63 vs 2.0
don't take any offense ,Well, 2.0 is supposed to increase CPU utilization. If anything it's acting the way it should.
Now, with that said, those temperatures are concerning. That's on the very high side of things. Do you regularly clean your laptop?
You'll definitely spend a lot of time throttling down due to temperatures and, obviously, reaching these high temperatures isn't good even with throttling. I'd suggest underclocking to reduce heat if it doesn't impact your performance too much. Or look into possible cooling solutions that exist for laptops.
don't take any offense ,
but i've all ready done all checks
working on game industry as a freelancer , get many utility / tools to check the integrity of my hardware .
like i said , even i pick the lowest setting on patch 2.0 , the game keep "forcing" after few minutes ( 1h/2h ) hight state pn cpu/gou , this is not normal .
tested lower setting , 720p cap fps 30 , getting the issues it'll take more addionnal minutes
no issues on 1.63 .
get an Acer nitro 5 , so each year i repast CPU/GPU, each 2/3 month i clean my fan .
i can assume the problem isn't on my side![]()
for any one having this issues , finally find outNo worries, no one has any reason to take offense to what you said. I was asking because, well, I have no clue who you are, what you do and what kind of care you put into your PC.
That's out of the way and knowing what you just said, I can only assume you do this the correct way too.
Still, I'm not convinced it's an issue with the game. Nor do I think it's an issue on your end per se. I'm getting the distinct impression your laptop is just pushed to it's absolute limit with whatever changes CDPR made under the hood. I'm not saying it won't change but I wouldn't hold my breath for it.
If the game is utilizing the additional cores more thoroughly, then those additional cores are not going to be clocking down, increasing the heat load.my concern is how now even low setting , CP 2077 is burning our laptop

if you check you speed clock , and voltage , we can see more strange behaviorSo i noticed something yesterday while playing, when 2.0 hit i saw no difference with CPU usage or anything else hardware releated, Fps was a bit smoother and RR made it look a bit better but thats it. Yesterday i saw my CPU pulling over 200w and hitting 85c (has never happend in a game before) during normal gameplay but the usage wasent really higher... Its kinda hard to measure when you have alot of cores but it was at 17% average. So something has changed since i started playing atleast, im guessing the scripts and background tracking is increasing the cpu usage...
Hmm doesent happend for me, its 5,5 ghz all the time. Gfx card is hot and drawing more then most games but cp2077 has always done that for me -.- No issues for me except i noticed this increase in cpu power draw. Never seen a game draw that much power tbh.if you check you speed clock , and voltage , we can see more strange behavior
