Welcome back to Night City, chooms. It is 2026 and Cyberpunk 2077 is still the ultimate hardware punisher. But what happens when you push a mainstream GPU to its absolute limit? Today we are looking at the RTX 4060 Cyberpunk 2077 Ultra Settings at 4K: FPS Results 2026. Spoiler alert... it is a wild ride. Let us see if this card survives the neon-lit streets.

Pushing the RTX 4060 to 4K Ultra 🔧

The RTX 4060 was designed to dominate 1080p gaming. Asking it to render 4K textures with Ultra settings is a massive task. To optimise this properly, we fired up the game with path tracing turned off but everything else maxed out.

Native 4K rendering requires serious horsepower and plenty of video memory. If you want to upgrade your rig to try this yourself, you can browse the latest graphics cards to find the perfect fit for your budget.

The Raw FPS Results in 2026

Native 4K is brutal. Without any upscaling, the RTX 4060 struggles to maintain 20 frames per second. It is a stuttering mess. But nobody plays native 4K on a 60-class GPU anymore.

Once we activate DLSS 3 and Frame Generation, the magic happens. The framerate jumps to a highly playable 40 to 45 FPS. It feels incredibly smooth for a budget-friendly card. Need a machine that can handle this tech out of the box? Check out our best gaming PC deals for some serious ZAR value.

Turning on basic Ray Tracing reflections drops the framerate back down to around 30 FPS. It is playable but definitely pushes the silicon to its absolute breaking point.

TIP

DLSS 3 Pro Tip ⚡

When running Cyberpunk 2077 at 4K on an RTX 4060, always set DLSS to Performance mode. It renders the game at 1080p internally and scales it up. This gives you the smoothest framerate while keeping Night City looking crisp.

Is the 4K Experience Worth It?

Honestly... yes and no. You get stunning visuals and playable frames thanks to Nvidia's AI wizardry. However, the 8GB VRAM limitation means you might see occasional texture pop-in during intense firefights.

If you prefer a plug-and-play experience without tweaking settings, you have other options. Grabbing one of our pre-built PC deals with an RTX 4070 might be a safer bet for flawless 4K gaming.

Taking Night City on the Go 🚀

Desktop gamers are not the only ones having fun. The mobile RTX 4060 is surprisingly capable. With proper cooling, laptop users can achieve similar upscaled 4K results on an external monitor.
