DLSS & PC Optimization - Cinder City Wiki
Optimize Cinder City PC performance with DLSS 4.5 settings, hardware recommendations, and graphics configuration tips.
DLSS 4.5 Support
Cinder City officially supports NVIDIA DLSS 4.5, as confirmed in a dedicated trailer showcasing the technology enhancing visual fidelity and performance. DLSS uses AI upscaling to render at lower internal resolution while outputting sharp images at your display resolution, dramatically improving frame rates on supported NVIDIA GPUs.
The official minimum GPU requirement of RTX 2060 ensures DLSS capability for all PC players meeting minimum specs. Recommended RTX 4070 hardware provides headroom for higher DLSS quality modes combined with elevated graphics settings in the demanding open world environment.
DLSS 4.5 represents the latest iteration of NVIDIA's upscaling technology, potentially including frame generation features that further boost performance beyond traditional upscaling. Exact DLSS feature availability in Cinder City settings menus awaits launch or beta access.
Hardware Optimization
The 32 GB RAM requirement for both minimum and recommended tiers reflects Unreal Engine 5 open-world memory demands. Close background applications before playing to maximize available memory. Consider RAM upgrade as the highest priority if currently below 32 GB, as this represents a hard floor rather than a suggestion.
Install Cinder City on an NVMe SSD for optimal asset streaming in the seamless open world. Hard drive installations may cause texture pop-in and stuttering during rapid traversal across Seoul districts. SSD space requirements are unconfirmed but likely exceed 80 GB based on comparable UE5 titles.
CPU selection impacts performance in MMO scenarios with many players visible simultaneously. The recommended Ryzen 7 7800X3D excels in gaming workloads with large cache benefiting engine performance. Intel i7-12700 provides strong alternative performance at the recommended tier.
Graphics Settings Strategy
Start with DLSS Quality mode at launch for balanced visuals and performance, adjusting to Performance mode if frame rates drop below your target during demanding raid encounters. The open world's variable intensity between calm exploration and chaotic battles may require different settings for optimal experience.
Unreal Engine 5 Lumen global illumination contributes significantly to visual quality but demands substantial GPU resources. If performance struggles persist despite DLSS, reducing Lumen quality or shadow settings typically provides the largest frame rate improvements.
Watch the official DLSS 4.5 trailer below for visual comparison of the technology in Cinder City environments. Use this reference to evaluate whether your system achieves comparable quality at acceptable frame rates during beta testing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does DLSS work on AMD GPUs?
