gunziness Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 If you can run IV, V will run better. I hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungChrist Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Once again. The article is not talking about minimum requirements. It's about specs for max settings. Even that is ridiculous. Firstly 16 gbs? Second of all, what if you have 4 way SLI and 4gbs? Bet it will run faster than 1 GPU and 16gbs. Rumour is crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGodDamnMaster Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Is it better to go for split RAM, like 2x4GB sticks? or one stick of 8GB?

bread Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I say 2GB minimum RAM, 6GB+ MAX. 16GB is way out of proportion and quite frankly this is the stupidest, most pathetic rumor regarding the PC version of GTA V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheD94 Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 It's not a so big step between GTA 4 which uses 1,8GB ram and GTA5. I know, GTA5 has much improvements in graphics, but still, it's not such a big deal. ~3,5 - 4GB ram should be fine for GTA5 at good graphic settings and view distance. f*ck man, I don't see anything in GTA5 screenshots and trailers what require 16GB ram... not even 6GB.

Mr.Arrow Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) RAM does nothing to modern gaming these days . CPU is what makes you worried , it all depends on the game you are trying to run. CPU speed can affect the rate at which the game loads and changes such as zoning etc. can be alot slower. The main things for high end games are Video card, memory and Cpu. You may be able to upgrade the Cpu in your comp very cheaply depending on your motherboard. Look for free program called CPUZ and it should give you a breakdown on exactly what is in your comp. Then you can look at Tigerdirect or Newegg and see the maximum Cpu aloowed for your motherboard. Overall both parts are equally important. The cpu is the one calculating all the video data and the graphics card must be able rendering all this information in realtime in order to prevent lagging. The rumour is indeed bullsh*t . Edited January 19, 2013 by Cyberzone2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P2FX Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 How can a 32bit application handle more than 4 GB of RAM? If R* make GTA V 64bit only at this time then they are killing it themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kudoboi Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Once again. The article is not talking about minimum requirements. It's about specs for max settings. even crysis 3 only needs 8GB of RAM for max settings on PC. i doubt V would need anything more than 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoumaker Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Look at you people thinking the game will need more than 4 GB, it will not need more than 4 GB; some of you guys seriously need to stop thinking about the specs this game will require. It won't be as demanding as you think. @Kudoboi I ran Crysis 3 in max settings with 4 GB Ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussianFreak Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Guys, keep in mind that consoles operate very differently from PCs. They need less ram and operating power because they're not running windows/background applications, etc. That's why you see graphics that are only slightly better in GTA IV on PC than on consoles, even though it takes a quad core and 4 gigs of ram to run that fully on the PC, compared to your 512 MB consoles. It's a completely different ball game so we can't theorize off of that. None the less, I don't think 16 GB will be a requirement, even to run it fully. I'm thinking 8 will be the top for the highest settings and more stress will be put on the CPU and the graphics card. Stock up on Geforce GTX 560/580s people! IF GTA V comes out on PC that is.

Andreas Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 16GB of RAM to fully utilize the potencial of the game? I know that this is just a rumour but it is one of the worst ones, really. I am sure that nobody would need that ammount of RAM, maybe 8GB but even that is already pretty much. I have tested it once what happens if you play GTA IV on maxed out settings with the -norestrictions line in the commandline.txt file on PC. The result was that after a few hours GTA IV needed about 6.5GB RAM but that was already the end so it didn't go up any more. So yeah, 8GB RAM should definitely suffice for GTA V even if it's a bad optimized port like GTA IV which is not going to happen and I'm certain about it.
