Gigahertz Specs are surprising tbh. I expected the game to be a lot more demanding, but saying that the minimum CPU seems to be a quad core. GPU wise it seems quite low end though. We'll just have to wait and see.


Well of course they are taking into consideration very very low specs.

Retire This game is going to be sweet on the PC.


You can say that again xD I'm gonna grab it a month or two after PC release though so R* can fix the bugs players may find before I play lol


Yeah same I'm going to hopefully get it a month or two after release for the exact same reason as you plus it should have dropped down in price by then.

DualWield 4K Resolution on GTA O_O WOW


4K is so damn exciting! Can't wait to see more games utilising it (maybe even consoles one day)


Same here lol, every game henceforth should be made on 4k res, that would make for some interesting and exciting gameplay :)

Don't see why it takes so damn long. Must be a pain for PC gamers to wait this long with console priority still very much potent

"Thanks everyone for your understanding and we assure you these few extra weeks will be worth it when the game does arrive in March."
