Gonna OC my i7 2600k in prep for this game. First time ever Overclocking
This a good guide?

No fov slider?

 

[Gen.Grievous]

Self radio is the best news yet. Especially because it works like Independence FM emulating a proper GTA radio station but with your own music.

No fov slider?

Not a graphics setting.

 

[Nyteshade517]

No fov slider?

it was in the "Controls" settings for PS4/XB1

Yes but I don't put too much reliance on Prime95 if I'm only really gaming on the overclock because games aren't going to be utilising the CPU as much as a full Prime95 load.

 

[Dries]

Confirmed to be in the game. Station is called Self Radio.

PC Gamer is doing a Q/A in their Disqus forums

EDIT:

GOTF confirmed.

Now I'm sold, but I don't even have a gaming PC.

I have a kick-ass workstation at work though

I am going to build the best Southern California (country) Rock playlist ever. Think of it:

The Eagles, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Gram Parsons, Rolling Stones, Neil Young, CSN&Y, Ryan Adams.....

I highly recommend you to disable any energy saving settings of the cpu, it caused instability and regularly freezed my system but after disabling it I was able to easily oc mine 2600k to 4,5ghz by simply changing core voltage to fixed 1,220.
I could go higher but I'm pretty satisfied with my current clock and i'ts rock stable, even on high load with silent fans it stays at 60 Celsius.
My second 970 is going to arrive soon (which hopefully will work with my current gpu overclock but I didn't went extreme high so it should work fine) and my rig should be more than ready to play this game on extreme settings.

 

[delta25]

id imagine , my i5 3330 with a 970 should easily be able to max this game out at 30fps running at 1080p.

Driving down a busy city street and rarely seeing the same car model twice. Underrated feature.

You should probably make it to 60.
Unless you want to crank up MSAA just because.

I am imagining you will get quite a bit higher than 30fps. Especially if you are fine without having PCSS enabled.

I don't think so, not if my definition of "max" aligns with yours.

Never heard of PCSS. Had to google it. Unbelievable. Is it super taxing in AC: Unity? What's the FPS hit? I need this in my life.

It is usually pretty darn expensive. Yeah.

minus MSAA and some of those higher end shadowing methods?

 

[Totobeni]

You will be able to run games at 1080p/60 for many years to come. It just depends on what settings you are willing to compromise. Hint: AO and tessellation should always be the first to go, expensive and difficult to notice in motion.

Tesselaltion maybe... but I completely disagree with you on ao, hbao+ provided a very noticeable and huge difference.

Hey guys, just saying I would trade native resolution and 60 FPS over AO.

 

[Kezen]

unity:

The performance hit is always there, but it's more severe in some games (Far Cry 4) than in others (AC Black Flag, Unity, Batman AO). Contact hardening shadows are generally very taxing. I'll have to disable them if I want 50-60fps.

8XMSAA is for chumps bro.

But even with lightweight AA GTA 5 is shaping up to be quite the hardware devourer. Nice.

minus MSAA and some of those higher end shadowing methods?

Speculation : And without PCSS, with density sliders adjusted.

I'm in the same boat (970 / 4770k) so I'll have to make a number of trade offs to reach my target. Great to see a game with very high-end options though, I'm never disappointed when I can't max out games as it means I'll be delighted to revisit them sometime after.

 

[psn]

And I would rather trade in AA

 

[Kinthalis]

I'll be happy with high and FXAA on my 780ti and i7 3770k @ 50-60 FPS.

 

[Dries]

I'm pretty assured that my 2500K @ 4.4Ghz and my OC'ed 980 could probably go ultra on 1440p and maintain a solid 60fps.

I hope so at least..

 

[Braag]

I wasn't planning on buying GTAV this month but if it turn out as well MP3 did (great performance, a lot of graphic options, great scalability), I definitely will.
I was expecting another GTAIV level port, glad to see it's looking a lot better this time.

 

[viveks86]

I guess I might buy this just for the sake of benchmarking.

 

[Yarbskoo]

I'm not sure how I feel about "Post FX options" being a single setting, but everything else looks pretty good.

Hopefully my 750 Ti will be able to get decent performance on mid-low settings.

GameStar confirms that there's no always-online DRM. Social Club is the only DRM.
One-Time online activation and then you can play offline.

 

[nobodyshero]

I wonder what an R9 290, 8GB Ram, and i7 4790 will get me. Hopefully high at a good framerate.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

I'm sure anybody who can't max it now can comfortably max it in 5 years when GTAVI is announced.

Wondering the same too.

I have same specs, except I have 16GB of RAM.

 

[rashbeep]

AO is one of those effects to me where if it's done well, you can't really notice it when you're playing with it, but when you remove it it makes a big difference.

My bad, I'm insecure about my specs

 

[Distresssss]

The rumor was that the team that handled the Max Payne 3 PC port was working on GTA V PC.

Just so there isn't false information out there, Max Payne 3 PC was the lead platform. It wasn't a port. The consoles versions were ports.


GTA V seems like it will be great on PC though.

 

[Jtrizzy]

I'll be interested to see what concessions I have to make to get to 1080p60 on my 970/2600k@4.4 setup. Probably most thing on ultra just not maxed out sliders and aa?

 

[Zomba13]

Mmmmm. Looking forward to this. Managed to hold out on last gen and the current gen ports and going in fresh (partly why the price for such a late port doesn't bother me personally). I still haven't decided if I'm going to go through the whole game in first person mode at my desk or console style on my TV laying back in bed.

Guess it comes down to how it feels in first person (I can imagine the physics falls would make it awkward?) and if the mouse aim feels right.

Time to dig out my The Guest and Drive OST's and others to make an electronic/synth station.

 

[0.1.1.2.3.5.8.13.21.34.55]

Haven't played the game since the PS3 launch.

I'm looking forward to downsampling it at 60 once the price of re-entry lowers to an acceptable level.

30$ on Nuuvem is pretty acceptable in my opinion. I will admit anything higher isn't really worth the investment.

Well that is an interesting surprise considering all the additional blurb they have in the specs on Steam. I imagine quite a few people will be a lot more comfortable getting the game knowing all this and the features of the PC version. Hopefully it actually performs well
