5 Reasons 16GB of RAM Fixes Cyberpunk 2077 Stutters

Cyberpunk 2077 is a RAM hog Even at medium settings, the game regularly uses 10–12GB of RAM.

8GB forces Windows to use the page file When the game needs more memory than available, Windows swaps data to your SSD or HDD.

Page file swaps cause stutters Those swaps are what create the hitches and micro-stutters you see during gameplay.

More RAM lets the game breathe Upgrading to 16GB eliminates the need for swapping, smoothing out performance.

The RTX 3060 is not the problem The GPU is fine for 1080p Cyberpunk—8GB of RAM is choking it, not the graphics card.
