Cyberpunk 2077 RT: 3090 vs 9070xt

optimised settings, RT reflections & local shadows. 1440p FSR3/4/DLSS Quality mode. FSR4 utilises the GPU much more than FSR3 for some reason resulting in much more impressive gains

# Top runs: * **Highest FPS**: `Cyberpunk2077(RT-FSR4) 9070XT` with significantly higher average FPS. * **Smoothest FPS**: `Cyberpunk2077(RT-FSR4) 9070XT` with the lowest standard deviation. * **Best overall**: `Cyberpunk2077(RT-FSR4) 9070XT`, as it combines high FPS with smooth frame delivery. # Issues: * The performance in the NVIDIA setup is significantly lower compared to both AMD setups, with a lower average FPS and higher frame time. The variance in FPS is approximately five times higher on the NVIDIA run than the best performing AMD run. Given the competing nature of the GPUs and the significant difference in FPS, the NVIDIA GPU underperforms in this benchmark context. # Summary In this benchmark, the two AMD configurations using the Radeon RX 9070 XT GPU were tested under two different settings, FSR3 and FSR4, and compared with a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 setup. The `FSR4` configuration achieved the best performance, delivering the highest average FPS and the smoothest frame rates. This demonstrates the impressive gains FSR4 can bring to the table. On the other hand, the NVIDIA setup showed notably lower performance, indicating that the `FSR4` mode drastically benefits AMD hardware's performance in Cyberpunk 2077 settings with ray tracing. The AMD setups maintain a more consistent performance, and the `FSR4` showcases a significant leap in FPS, possibly hinting at optimization biases or hardware compatibility factors at play. Overall, the findings suggest that the AMD 9070 XT, particularly when utilizing `FSR4`, is superior in this benchmark scenario.
