The Nvidia RTX 3090 and the 3090 Ti are flagship gaming graphics cards from the last generation. Launched as the first Big Ferocious GPUs (BFGPUs), these cards promised 8K gaming upon launch. However, they truly shine at 4K in modern AAA titles, and that is the resolution we recommend for poorly optimized games like Starfield and Cyberpunk 2077.

CD Projekt Red's first-person open-world game is getting a 2.0 update that will surely improve visuals and gameplay mechanics. Therefore, you might have to tweak the settings again for decent framerates when playing at UHD. We will list the best graphics options combination for the 3090 and the 3090 Ti in this article.
