[SOLVED] Current size GTA V

[MajerRego]

Just wondering if I have enough space

Do you mean installing the game to your HDD?

Well, your being a little vague. What size HDD do you have? Anywho, the game is about 65gb in size for full install on a PC. Nearly every drive out there will have that capacity, except for smaller SSD with 128gbs capcity.

Yeah I only have a 120gb SSD for now

oh. then with windows, and the game you will nearly fill the drive. With SSD'd once the drives fill up they can get really slow, and can cause game stuttering.

Consider getting an HDD, and using it for games, keeping only windows on the SSD.

HDD are so cheap now. You can pick up a 500gb for 20-30 £/$/€

Something like this:

GTA is a game that can benefit considerably from fast drives, like SSDs. If you can get a second SSD for games and install the game on it, you'll get better load times and less hiccups than from installed on HDDs.

And by that you mean, faster loading times. The game itself, or in game experience is not affected by having an SSD or HDD. Game data is loaded into system ram, from the HDD/SSD, the CPU then sends the date to the GPU. The type of drive has no effect on gaming experience, unless there is an insufficient amount of ram, in which case that can be a problem (as windows would use the swap file/page file to load data) The ONLY difference between having GTA V on a SSD or HDD is loading times.
