More Cyberpunk 2077 news:
This new mode is supported by graphics cards from the Nvidia GeForce RTX 40 series (4070 Ti and better), as well as by the Nvidia GeForce RTX 3090 (1080p, 30 fps).
With other ray tracing capable graphics cards you can at least create path tracing screenshots. If you have a corresponding graphics card with at least 8 GB VRAM, but the option is still greyed out, you should reduce the resolution. Path tracing for photo mode can be activated in the graphics menu.
