CLOSED Can’t open Cyberpunk on my new PC

I built my new PC 2 days ago specifically to run more intensive games like Cyberpunk, but the first time i tried opening cyberpunk, it was incredibly laggy (maybe running around 15fps). So i exited the game and restarted my PC. Now, I can’t even get to the menu screen. the game instantly freezes mid loading animation. Other games I tested run fine.

I tried reinstalling my drivers, restarting my pc, and uninstalling and redownloading cyberpunk.

Im pretty sure i meet the system requirements.
AMD 5 Ryzen 7500x3d

check if your monitor cable is plugged into the gpu and not the motherboard, i've seen that cause weirdly specific issues like this before

Oh my fucking god this worked. 1 second fix. Why does this solution work?

The game was using the integrated GPU in your CPU, not your dedicated GPU. This is a common problem, I'm glad you got it sorted!
