Cyberpunk RT Overdrive Benchmarks, Image Quality, Path Tracing, & DLSS

Sponsor: Thermaltake Ceres 500 TG on Amazon - https://geni.us/8An8nn Cyberpunk 2077 on max graphics settings now includes RT Overdrive -- or Path Tracing -- and is at a point where it nearly requires an RTX 4090 and DLSS. We're benchmarking the new Ray Tracing Overdrive (Path Tracing) feature in Cyberpunk 2077, including some comparisons of ray tracing (RT Ultra, RT Psycho) vs. Path Tracing (Overdrive). We also briefly go over how DLSS works, frame generation, and offer a blind test for a fun check against your expectations. Frametimes are additionally included for an objective look at frame pacing.
