GTA 5 PC

finaly got gta5!!

taken under/around 3h to install all 7 disks
now the 5gb update :'(
 
dont know why u guys talk about 13h

mine took around 5h total (7disks and 5gb update)
 
can be :P

thers a few games that worth buying

GTA is one of them cost a ton but its worth it :)
 
Really liking the offline game. Just completed the final heist.
Running a measly 25fps medium settings.

I tried some online, but the desync in the open world was crazy.
I did a driving race, desync was again terrible.
Then I did team vs team mission and it was fine, I even ended up being the last man standing.
Tried to join a heist but was asked to leave, I guess the only way to do those is with buddies (aka a crew).
Then later tried to connect but just kept getting timeout issues...


intel i7 870 @2.9Hz
8Gb RAM
GTX460 SOC 1Gb

I tried one of the repacks but experienced a lot of crashes but I suspect it's got more to do with Win10 tech preview I'm running than the game, I updated the nvidia drivers that come with win10 to the latest from nvidia and crashes became less frequent. That said I have also not applied all the gta5 patches/updates yet either.

Graphics card :P
EDIT: Swap your graphics card for a better one and your fps should increase drastically.

Would be interesting to see your settings as I have vsync enable and it does not dip on a gtx 960. Without vsync I'm in the 70's somewhere. I'll record and post all my settings here tomorrow night if I remember. Edit: I definitely have msaa off and textures is one below max due to memory.

The games graphics are not like wow though, nothing like fc4, crysis3 etc, actually looks a bit plain & washed out.

Don't use gforce experience to optimise your settings as 9/10 it gets it wrong.

Play around with that guide, dunno about you but fxaa looks better than 2x msaa with less gpu tax, dsr is another option. I spent about a day with their fc4 guide where I enabled this, disabled that and a lot of things you barely notice the difference while stationary & when in motion you willl not notice it at all. You can achieve some stunning gfx without taking a performance knock compared to when you just max everything out completely.

I used the amd gaming evolution app to optimize my settings as well and it messed up my gaming experience... Gotta revert to the original settings

Beg to differ the games graphics are insane ... If you have the hardware

Playing on a Titan x and while I do get dips in the 30s (grassy areas) for the most part the game runs beautifully totally maxed out and looks amazing
 
Finished the story mode on monday. Really enjoyed the game. Always been a fan of the franchise though.

Didn't do all the "side quest" stuff, just some of the things that I enjoyed.
