Grand Theft Auto V PC System Requirement Thread

[Xerukal]

Aye, my 980 manages to average about the same as the one in that screenshot. But the frame drops/stutters are out of control.

 

Not to mention the persistent as f*ck mouse acceleration which is only slightly reduced by editing the XML...

You guys don't get it at all. Just because the game runs on low-end to mid-range hardware with decent FPS, doesn't justifies it to be a good port. Far cry 4 has this constant stutters. Mouse acceleration is absolutely nonsense. Keybindings are terrible. And for most people, they are bugged with the black screen of death. Why? Because they have freakin' usb mouse and keyboard connected to it. Is that what you call a good port? No. Absolutely not. Leave Far Cry 4 out of this. That game is a terrible port, but atleast runs decent than Unity. You guys need to watch Cynical Brit's PC port report of Far Cry 4.

Um... my last hope is with 'The Crew'. If that turns out to be a pile of unoptimized crap port for PC then, I guess it would be time for me to say "Good bye" to Ubisoft.

Oh! And I forgot to mention that FC4 does not work on dual core processors.

[Kampret]

Does it work with HT dual-cores like i3?

[Actional]

AHA! Now I got it! Coming in mid/late December or early January, once Rockstar is revealing the PC footage trailer, they are also releasing the real requirements for this game at the same time as well. Edited November 23, 2014 by AhimShannon

IT loads up and crashes. For straight up dual cores like me with just 2 threads, the game freezes with black screen. Although I can play Unity just fine. I'm telling you man, UBISOFT KEEPS ON DIGGING.

 

EDIT:Ubisoft were about to release a patch to fix the black screen but dismissed it at the last moment. They said that they are working on additional fixes to tackle the black screen issue. Let's hope they remove the restriction. This is the first time Ubisoft had hardlocked the requirement for a game.

HA! Now I got it! Coming in mid/late December or early January, once Rockstar is revealing the PC footage trailer, they are also releasing the real requirements for this game at the same time as well.

 

Anyway, here's my predicted requirements once again. To make GTA5-PC performs even better than PS4/Xbox One, Rockstar needs to be given even better graphics details and more, as you guys have previously heard about GTA5-PC delayed, to make this game more polished. Believe it or not, this game is also playable with AMD CPU and GPU. But I hate AMD, in my opinion.

 

Minimum Requirements:

Intel Core i3-2100 3.10GHz. - requires at least Sandy-Bridge Core i3 or higher to be able to play this game. Pentium and Celeron CPUs are not supported/compatible.

4GB RAM. - if you're running 4GB RAM, it will run on 1GB of Video Memory. For more than 6GB RAM, it will run on 2GB of Video Memory.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX660 2GB. - for GTA5-PC graphics like this, I'll give it for a little bit higher, this very almost meets AC:Unity requirements.

60GB Free Space.

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 64Bit or Later. With DirectX11. 32Bit-OS is not supported.

 

Recommended Requirements:

Intel Core i5-3330 3.00GHz.

8GB RAM.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX760 2GB.

60GB Free Space.

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 64Bit or Later. With DirectX11.

 

Ultra/4K Requirements:

Intel Core i7-4790 3.6GHz. - requires at least this processor to run it on Ultra/4K.

12GB RAM.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX970 4GB. - you can use multiple cards for 4K. Higher cards will work as well.

 

Stop spamming mate. How many times you're gonna post the same sh*t?

At least "The Crew" is not made by Ubisoft Kiev.

I tested the beta and it was really really demanding on the GPU, horrible Aliasing and low draw distances. But it did not have any stupid microstutter for no reason.

I would guess with new GPU drivers and the half year of work after that it could be demanding but work ok'ish.

[raburs]

Utkarshrajsingh. You do realise that the GTX 680 can run recent games max setting at high frame rates. So why would it be recommended?

 

i know...its actually a high end card.. but i guess recommended is always overexaggerated XD! thats y maybe 770 would be recommended or maybe 970 who knows!... idk thats my assumption!

OK. If you say so. I'll wait for official requirements once a new trailer is revealing. Have a nice day. I'm out of here. Edited November 22, 2014 by AhimShannon

[SilverRST]

Well, to be honest. guys. I don't think an i3 would be a minimum CPU requirement. The most plausible CPU minimum is a Q6600 2.4GHz.

SILVER_WOLF has this CPU in combination with a GTX460 and he can play games at failry high settings with 40FPS.

You won't need a newer CPU like an i3 for a minimum. And for a minimum GPU would be a 9600GT and or a ATi3870 or something.

[RedIndianRobin]

 

Yeah that works.

Does it? It didn't work for many of my friends with 4th gen i3 with HT. They still get a black screen as me.

The Crew ran decently in the Alpha, so I'm not so worried about that. The Division on the other hand..

x64sys, dx11, quad core, and atleast 1 gb video will be as minimum anyways

I doubt it will be quite as low as that, but I do agree a 1 gig GPU will be the minimum spec.

[RedIndianRobin]

For the sake of ****!! Stop with this ridiculous questions about system requirements. People with GTX 980 be like "Can I run GTA 5 at low settings" and people with Intel graphics be like "I'm sure I'll play at high settings" Let Rockstar reveal the system requirements.

It's actually becoming a trend these days with the game devs. The minimum is fixed for all the upcoming games these days. An i5 processor with 6gigs of Ram and a GTX 600 series card with atleast 2gigs of VRam for minimum. Let's just hope R* doesn't follow suit. Edited November 23, 2014 by Andreas

Yet people with lower hardware can run those games. Devs are lazy.

[alexbowwow]

Watching the new gen footage of the game makes me think at one thing: that the game will be dx 11 only. In which case I'm f*cked since I can't upgrade my gpu anymore as planned.

Oh well back to san andreas and youtube videos I guess...

I am a convinced pc gamer. I feel that the pc is better in a lot of ways than any console. However, a major disadvantage is hardware pricing. You can build a far more powerfull pc than next gen consoles, but it costs a lot more and it lasts a lot less. Of course you can extend its life by playing on medium or low, but it doesn't feel right considering how much money you spent on that build. This is, like I said, a disadvantage of pc gaming, but I understand why this happens and, if money is no problem to you, then you have no problem.

 

What I do not understand and it feels wrong to me is the way the gaming industry treats us pc gamers. We buy games from them, they should be on our side. They should help us spend less money on pc hardware, not more. They should make games that run on 6-7-8 years old pcs( on low, I tottaly agree) as well as on the newest hardware, taking advantage of all their firepower. I think it's outrageous to have a game which demands one or two generations old gpu at minimum requirements. Someone said in an article that only 7% of steam users meet those requirements( I can't remember the game, it's one of these from this fall). What is the logic of releasing a game for only 7% of gamers?

 

How can you finish your game ( talking about unity here) aprox 2-3 weeks before release date( or more), play the final version to see how it works( I suppose they do that) and say nothing about what how terrible it runs? I expected them to delay it 6 more months in order to figure out and correct the problems. I simply can't imagine how you could look at your one year or so work, see what a disaster it is, and release it anyway.

 

Sry for the offtopic, I had to cool off.

Ontopic. The best way to know how v will run on different hardware is to wait its release. If you want to buy a new pc, there are 2 cases: if money is no problem for you, then buy what you think is the best pc out there and hope you won't have to spend more money when v appears; however, if you are on a tight budget, buying anything before 27 of january is a risk. I, for example, really want that 970 before Christmas, and if I will get it, I will also buy a sli compatible motherboard, because I have to be sure I am prepared for the worst with GTA V.

 

Good luck.

[radd_bro]

Do you guys think a Geforce GTX 745(OEM) handle GTA V? I have a sh*t GPU!

 

I just hope this game isnt as demanding as FC4, or ACU.

As long as devs don't lock the requirements like Far Cry 4, we should be good to go. I still can't believe Ubisoft pulled out such a bitch move. I am a huge fan of FC series and I can't play because of ridiculous restrictions.

To be honest, the game is not really WOW graphics-wise. It looks good,sure, but it's not something new. I think it's gonna be more CPU demanding rather than GPU demanding

Funny thing is I have a Q6600 in a dead P5K-E motherboard sitting next to my bed, along with 4GB of DDR2 667, I don't have the skills to take the CPU out of the motherboard or I would have sold it already, problem is getting the tower to a repair shop to take off the CPU to sell it will cost more than the price I can sell it for, so I'm screwed somehow.
