How to reduce your input lag in Cyberpunk 2077
When using a controller, which is where a lot of the input lag comes from, navigate through the Cyberpunk 2077 game settings until you find the first person camera (controller). Next, enable advanced options and reduce horizontal and vertical rotation. You want both at 0.
Next, go to the video settings. You search for V-Sync and when you find it, turn it off completely. Finally, scroll down to Charts and enable Resolution Scaling and Static FidelityFX CAS. You should modify them according to your specifications. And finally, make sure your game is running in full screen and not windowed full screen.
The key is to gain frames, not lose them. When you lose frames, you suffer from greater input lag.
