• OFFICIAL AND EXTRAPOLATED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS for Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion. This information is based on the official PC specifications from developer Marvelous First Studio, adapted to the requested JSON structure. As a fast-paced open-world mech-action game, the requirements are notable, especially the high RAM recommendation. Laptop and future-generation GPU listings are extrapolated based on performance benchmarks.
• Laptop Performance Note: Laptop versions of the listed desktop GPUs require comparable performance. For a high-speed action game like Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion, maintaining a high and stable framerate is key, making a laptop with a strong CPU and a well-cooled, high-TGP GPU very important.
• Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: A high TGP is essential to ensure the GPU can consistently deliver high framerates without throttling during intense, graphically demanding boss battles and while boosting through the open world.
• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: The game's fast-paced combat can put a sustained load on components. A robust cooling system is necessary to prevent thermal throttling and ensure consistent performance, which is critical for responsive gameplay.
• Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Strong single-core and multi-core CPU performance is important for processing the game's physics, enemy AI, and player movement with minimal delay. Adequate power delivery to the CPU is key.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: A MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended to minimize system latency, providing a tangible advantage in a fast-paced game where reaction time is critical.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: As a modern Unreal Engine title, the game is expected to support the latest versions of NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS to help achieve higher framerates, especially at 1440p and 4K resolutions.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Performance is most affected by settings like Shadow Quality, Effects Quality, and View Distance. Given the speed of movement, maintaining a high framerate is often prioritized by players.
• Game Name: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion

• Official system requirements from CD Projekt Red (updated post-2.0 patch and Phantom Liberty). Performance can vary significantly depending on specific hardware, settings, areas in-game (especially dense city centers), and background applications. An SSD is MANDATORY. The game is very demanding, especially with Path Tracing (Overdrive Mode).
• Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs may work if their performance is comparable, but TGP (Total Graphics Power) and cooling are extremely critical. **Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the most graphically and CPU intensive games, particularly with advanced ray tracing. High-end, modern laptop hardware is essential for an enjoyable experience at higher settings.**
• Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Maximum TGP is crucial for performance.
• Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Excellent cooling is essential to prevent severe thermal throttling, especially during prolonged sessions.

• Laptop Consideration: R A M Speed Dual Channel: Fast dual-channel RAM (DDR5 preferred) significantly benefits performance, especially with high CPU load.
• Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: Using a MUX switch or NVIDIA Advanced Optimus is highly recommended for optimal framerates.
• Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: Supports NVIDIA DLSS (including Super Resolution, Ray Reconstruction, and Frame Generation - DLSS 3/3.5), AMD FSR 2.1, and Intel XeSS 1.1.
• Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Ray Tracing (Reflections, Sun Shadows, Local Shadows, Global Illumination, Path Tracing/Overdrive Mode), Screen Space Reflections Quality, Volumetric Fog Resolution, Crowd Density, Texture Quality, and Level of Detail (LOD) heavily impact performance. Using upscaling is highly recommended for higher settings/resolutions, especially with any form of ray tracing.
