Grand Theft Auto V

GTAV

Grand Theft Auto V, currently one of the hottest PC games, was finally released for the PC on April 14, 2015. Developed by Rockstar, it is set in 2013 and the city of Los Santos. It utilizes the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine (RAGE) which Rockstar has been using since 2006, with multiple updates for technology improvements.

In Grand Theft Auto V we set the game to run with no MSAA with 16x AF and high image quality settings as we didn’t want the GPU to bottleneck the system too bad, but wanted a setup that your average gamer would actually play on. We used the games built-in benchmark utility to have at least one game we used that could be compared to your setup at home. We averaged all the five of the default benchmark runs and omitted both the minimum and maximum values as those results are garbage due to major inconsistencies.

Benchmark Results: The ASUS Geforce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB ROG STRIX OC Edition graphics card made short of GTAV and we were able to average above 60 FPS at both 1080P and 1440P display resolutions.

Over 47,000 gamers are playing GTAV on steam right now and if they had a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti they could be playing it at 1080P with silky smooth game play!
