Does it costs 5000$ for a pc to play gta v?

Well, you surely do have a point there. Looking at grass and those ground textures, awful.

 

We just need to wait for system requirements. What we're posting here are just some facts for which we even don't have arguments.

Yeah we do. Though I really don`t think it will require a beast PC to run. A lot of people still have PC that are horrible, so R* would probably want to spread across wider range of people. So I think that in order to run GTA5 a toaster with graphics card will do for lowest settings and 30FPS, while maxed out would require a beast PC.

 

P.S. I see some people talking about components like R9 270 or HD7850 and to be honest I have no clue what to think. I don`t know if that`s good or bad since I only follow Intel and nVidia. Makes me feel like a douche.

I'm pretty sure that this game will require a strong config. Not becouse of bad optimization, but simply becouse it's a game with an effing huge map and very good graphics. People should really understand this. When a linear FPS with a few buildings around you requires a good PC, that's fine, but not when GTA needs it? Honestly, i've never undestood the logic behind this, if there's any.

 

And exactly becouse of this, i'm also pretty sure that GTA IV wasn't as bad as people say. It's still has one of the best graphics among PC games, it just requires performance, that's it. Honestly, what did you expect? No one bats an eye when Crysis 3 needs a high-end graphics card, but everybody loses their minds when GTA needs it. f*ck logic i guess..

I'm looking to get a gaming rig. I haven't been a regular PC gamer for years. Anyone know of a reasonably priced, trusted, entry level gaming pc that has plenty of room for future expansion? I'm going to NEED to have GTA V on PC because there is plenty I'd like to "fix", of course with the help of the talented modding community. Never felt that I needed GTA IV on the PC because I was happy with it's console version but it be nice to get to get some more replay value out of it as well.

You will be better off if you order hardware by yourself and DIY. It is not that hard! Not even an hour to complete it. The most time it takes are installing software, drivers, etc. and then testing. And I mean proper testing like Prime95 and Kombustor for 8hours, etc.

I personally have built 3 PC's so far and and hour seems very optimistic for a first build.

Even a standard build took me 52min last time. My own PC includes at least 4h of building/planning.

Well it literally takes me about 24 hours from seperate pieces to fully working machine. 1h is fully hardware assembly, not software side. I already mention that in previous post.

For $1000 I'd buy 2 GTX 780TI's and enjoy 60 fps 1080p gaming for the next 5 years on max graphics.

OK, so he goes out and buys 2x GTX 780Ti's, ....well now he doesn't have the rest of the hardware, he can't just magically make two GPU's ne a whole system. ;)

And even then cheapest 780 TI is around 700$.

Just because I have a PC, doesn't mean this piece of sh*t can run the game. Lol.

I put together a desktop a few years back but it was by no means a high end machine. It probably cost no more $800 just kinda wanted to try it out. Don't remember how long it took, I know it took longer than I wanted it to because I got the wrong kind of RAM. If I could put together something that could run GTA V for under $1200 I'd jump on it this weekend. Then again I gotta be outta state next week so I'm not sure when I'll have time to do research and some shopping.

You could build a pc that can max out gta v and with mods for 1200$.a 600$ pc can max out gta v.a 1200$ pc can max out any pc game for next 5 years.

Perhaps back when I put together that POS rig the components were far more expensive or maybe they saw me coming at Microcenter. If what your saying is true it could be certain that I'll be getting a PC before a next gen console.

That is false. There is no way 1200$ wil lmax out any pc game, even 780 Ti SLI strugle max out some pc games. Do you even know what max out means? Highest resolution, that can be 4K or even more! or Triple-Monitor, 4xMSAA or even more, Ubersampling or something like that. And you think 1200$ box can max out todays games, let alone 5 years from now??

And don't forget 120Hz, 144Hz monitors...

who needs 3 monitors to play 1 game?ps 4 version will be slightly above 720p.pc version max is above 1080 p.1080 p with full antialisaing and ultra graphics settings is called max that is easily made by 1200$ pc.

I agree. 1440p144 with ultra settings and 4xMSAA. No way. Let alone 4k.

Mister XeeL

I came to another conclusion by involving "NEXT-GEN" consoles. PS4 & XB1 are sh*t consoles. Slowing down the evolution of games. That "helps" a lot for people that have "sh*t" computers. PS4 & XB1 are going to run GTA V at medium settings, prob. 1080p, 30 FPS. And so that's next-gen? Next-gen should be 4k or 2k, ultra settings, 60 FPS. Imagine if there was no consoles. People would buy PCs, hardware would get cheaper and video games would be just great. No downgrading or anything. Since English is my foreign language it's hard for me to explain what I'm actually trying to say but I think you got the point.

Who needs a $1200 PC to play video games? Who needs a 1440p or better yet an Ultra HD monitor? Who needs to play video games at all?

 

The answer: those who want to play video games for their own entertainment with a quality that is far superior to a console. Of course it's not needed, but if that's what people want to spend their money on, they are free to do so.

I've not kept track of this topic, but I'd like to say that building a good PC is about a good knowledge of overclocking. A good selected of hardware at decent price will be able to run the game at maximum settings.

Not every good PC is automatically overclockable; it depends on which motherboard + processor combination you have. For instance, you can get an Intel Xeon E3-1230V3, which is nothing else than an i7 4770 that is underclocked by 100MHz and lacks the integrated iGP, for an additional €20 that an i5 4670k costs, depending on the area and in which store you buy the hardware; the one disadvantage it has over the K processor is that it is not or, at least, barely overclockable. But on the plus side, it has HyperThreading. Intel's i3 processors don't offer the possibility to overclock either. The same goes for most of their modern non-K/X chips.

take this with a truck of salt but let's say in my opinion the CURRENT gen will have these settings:

-ps4 will be native 1080p xbone will be 900p upscaled to 1080p

-both will have 30fps

-will run on pc's equivalent of medium settings

That's all i know

Rockstar confirmed on twitter that V is running at 1080p on both consoles. I agree about the framerate, though, 30 FPS sounds realistic to me. I assume that the graphical settings of both versions equal to middle-to-high settings on PC.

Did they confirm the Xbox One version was running at 1080p? If so, then that pretty much confirms that was the delay. :D

Impossible or you would be happy with used? You already can get used 780 Ti's?
