What You See is What You Get: IGN India Exclusive Feature on GTA V Per

[Junra]

Hi, this is my first post here I'm from IGN India and we're planning to do a regular feature called What You See is What You Get. The GTA V edition is our pilot feature. Having gone through the thread on performance here, and through comments on other sites, I've found that a lot of people (hundreds of them) ask what settings they can play games at--not just GTA V, but most any game, as in "Hey, I've got a 650ti and an i3, with 4 gigs of RAM. Can I max this out?" If it's a quick fix you're after for settings, Nvidia Experience doesn't work that much better than auto-detect (and it doesn't work for AMD cards anyways). And most sites that do benchmarks, do these at max settings. if you're trying to figure out exactly what settings to run, those benchmarks don't tell you much either. Nvidia's performance guide articles are nice, but then again not everyone runs games on a pair of Titan Xs in SLI With What You See is What You Get , we're planning on benching all the settings for a particular game, with cards at all performance envelopes, at commonly used resolutions like 720p, 900p, and 1080p, finally coming up with guaranteed settings for 30 FPS and 60 FPS for any particular performance tier, accurate within 10-15 percent for that tier. For the GTA V pilot feature, we've stuck to just the entry level at 720p, but if the response is good, we'll be benching cards at all performance tiers, and at all common resolutions. The idea is that instead of posting on forums and looking at benchmarks, if you want to know what settings to run for a given game, you can just spend two minutes reading What You See is What You Get, then set our recommended settings and just play Please do check out the article (I'm new at IGN India as well, so I'd really appreciate your feedback )

Heya, thanks for the quick reply. Sorry if IG appeared that way. I get that it's an article I've written myself but considering that it would allow people to configure graphics settings effectively for GTA 5, I thought it'd still be of some use for the community
