This game is the only reason I want to upgrade my GPU. Maybe there will be enough new Geforces or Radeons in stock by then.

There is at least one 3rd-party benchmark available at this point. AMD is slightly, possibly margin of error, ahead of NVIDIA.
Assuming that the benchmarks are good, that AMD will undercut NVIDIA (as they tend to do) and that you don't want to do ML, Radeon is probably going to be the one for those who have been waiting.

AMD is holding the RDNA 2 reveal tomorrow: https://www.amd.com/en/events/gaming-2020
AMD has historically undercut Nvidia, but at a cost of power consumption, heat output, and feature set. Let's see what they have.

Have you seen the power consumption numbers for the 30xx series? I'ts pushing 400w at full load[1]. Not sure AMD can just smash their voltages up to try and be competitive this time.

It might be an important marketing consideration: necessary hardware upgrades might be delaying Cyberpunk 2077 sales.

According to their recommendations you should be fine with any mid-high level PC built in the last 3-4 years:
Core i7-4790 or Ryzen 3 3200G
GTX 1060 6GB or R9 Fury
12GB RAM
70GB SSD storage
Windows 10 64-bit
