What to consider when buying a gaming PC for GTA 5

What Budget do I need for a GTA 5 Gaming PC?

Ideally you will need a budget between £800 - £1500 for gaming experience. To get the best gaming experience possible in GTA 5, it is important to have a budget-friendly gaming PC. It is possible to get a great gaming experience on a budget. By playing to your heart's content and not underestimating the importance of specs, you can make sure that you are getting the most out of your gaming PC for Grand Theft Auto 5.

Processor

For the best FPS results in GTA 5, you'll need a powerful processor. A Ryzen 5 or Intel Core i5 are the minimum you should consider. Ideally an Intel core i5 will give the best results if you are looking to play competitively or at high graphical levels. Both these CPU offer great performance for playing GTA 5 and other competitive games.

Graphics

A Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 is the minimum we would recommend for smooth gameplay. Although the best graphics cards for GTA 5 gaming PCs are the RTX 3060 and above. These cards will provide you with the best performance and will allow you to enjoy the game at its fullest. But if you want to truly max out GTA V the new RTX 4070 will easily perform at 4K at a great price

Memory

To have an optimal gaming experience, you will need a system with at least 16GB of RAM. This is because high-resolution gameplay requires a lot of memory to run smoothly. We will always give you the option to increase the amount of RAM if needed.

SSD

You need an SSD because you may experience lagging whilst using a hard drive, due to the time taken to load the massive open world that GTA 5 boasts. An SSD is recommended to avoid this issue. An SSD drive will speed up the loading of the game, as well as any loading of maps during gameplay, helping avoid any lagging mid game.

    3. 4GB RAM

Recommended System Requirements:

Experts recommendations

When it comes to purchasing a gaming PC for Grand Theft Auto 5, there are a number of considerations to take into account. Firstly, one should consider the warranty and support offered by the manufacturer. Most gaming PCs come with a standard three year warranty, offering peace of mind and security in case of any hardware failure. Additionally, many gaming PC manufacturers offer support for troubleshooting and maintenance, meaning you can get assistance quickly in the event of an issue.

In contrast, console manufacturers generally offer a one year warranty and support for the hardware, while games must be purchased separately with no warranty attached. Thus, gaming PCs offer more comprehensive coverage in terms of warranty and support, as well as potential upgradability and customisation options.
