The Best Gaming PCs for Cyberpunk 2077
From the Skytech Rampage to the Skytech King 95: five gaming PCs ranked on VRAM and memory, with who should skip each one.
By The PC Journal editorial team
12 min read5 products evaluated
Cyberpunk 2077 with ray tracing needs a strong GPU with upscaling support. Every pick has an RTX 4070, RTX 5070 or RX 9070-class GPU and cost $2,300 or less, ordered from the lowest price.
This is a research roundup, not a lab test: graphics card, VRAM and processor come from each maker's published specs; nothing here was tested in-house, and a missing power supply is flagged, not filled in.

Skip if
- Choose another pick if you can't accept this: memory of 24GB, behind the HOENGAGER RTX 5070 (32GB).
Why we like it
Its 850W Gold ATX 3 power supply leaves room for a larger GPU later. Its 24GB memory ranks third of 5 here, behind the HOENGAGER RTX 5070 (32GB) and ahead of the Skytech King 95 (16GB). Like the HOENGAGER RTX 5070 and HELLOLAND RTX 5070, it has an RTX 5070 graphics card, while the WIWB i7 RTX 4070 uses an RTX 4070 graphics card.
It is the only pick here with a core i5-14400F processor; the WIWB i7 RTX 4070 has a core i7-14700KF processor instead. Like the Skytech King 95, it has a DDR5-6000 memory type, while the WIWB i7 RTX 4070 uses a DDR5 memory type. Check the Skytech Rampage's ports against your monitor: most graphics cards use DisplayPort and HDMI, so match the cable to the refresh rate you want. The 850W power supply is the stated figure; check its connectors before a later GPU upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which has the largest power supply wattage: the Skytech Rampage or the Skytech King 95?
The Skytech Rampage leads at 850W, with the Skytech King 95 at 750W. The WIWB i7 RTX 4070, the HOENGAGER RTX 5070 and the HELLOLAND RTX 5070 don't state a figure, so they sit outside this comparison.
Is the Skytech King 95 worth paying more than the Skytech Rampage?
On the figures both makers state, it adds little. It does not win everywhere: the Skytech Rampage still leads on memory (24GB) and power supply wattage (850W). The Skytech Rampage was the lowest-priced pick when we checked, so pay the difference only if a feature outside the spec sheet matters to you.
What makes the Skytech King 95 the Premium Pick?
It earns the label for a white Montech King 95 case at the highest price in the group. It suits buyers for whom price is not the deciding factor.

The Skytech Rampage, the HOENGAGER RTX 5070 and the HELLOLAND RTX 5070 use RTX 5070; the WIWB i7 RTX 4070 uses RTX 4070; the Skytech King 95 uses RTX 4070 Super.
What should I check before buying the WIWB i7 RTX 4070?
Check the WIWB i7 RTX 4070's ports against your monitor: most graphics cards use DisplayPort and HDMI, so match the cable to the refresh rate you want. The WIWB i7 RTX 4070's PSU wattage isn't published, so ask the seller before planning a GPU upgrade. In this guide it ranks second of 5.
Beyond the specs, what sets the Skytech Rampage and the WIWB i7 RTX 4070 apart?
