GTA 5: System requirements for the OpenWorld game
Rockstar has postponed the release of GTA V for PC to March 24th, 2015. The developers also announced the official system requirements.
- As a CPU you need at least an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 2.40 GHz or an AMD Phenom 9850 Quad-Core Processor 2.5 GHz. The game will likely be very CPU intensive due to its open world nature. An Intel Core i5 3470 3.2 GHZ or an AMD X8 FX-8350 4 GHZ or better is recommended.
- You need at least 4 GB of RAM. The recommendation is 8 GB.
- You need at least one NVIDIA 9800 GT 1 GB or one AMD HD 4870 1 GB to be able to play the game smoothly. However, you can only play with these graphics cards at very low settings. Rockstar recommends an NVIDIA GTX 660 2 GB or an AMD HD7870 2 GB for high resolutions and a high level of detail.
- In addition, GTA V requires at least 65 GB of hard disk space.

- The manufacturer recommends using only high-end graphics cards. You should have at least an NVidia GTX 760 or an AMD HD 7870 with 2 GB of graphics memory.
- With these models you can achieve solid 30 frames per second.
- However, your computer should generally belong to a newer generation, since the whole system is ultimately crucial for good performance.
