Will i be able to run GTA V for pc?

[Marx6123]

Well after much waited time it is confirmed to be January 27th for the release and i was wondering will i be able to run it? Here are my Specs

AMD Quad-Core FX-4300 Vishera Processor with NVIDIA GT 610 graphics

8GB DDR3 SDRAM

8MB L3 cache memory

500GB Serial ATA II hard drive (7200 rpm)

NVIDIA GT 610 graphics

Operating System Windows 8.1

I'd say low, probably

No, nor can you run any demanding game with a GT 610. It's a general display card not meant for gaming.

Oh well how much for a new graphics card? You know one that could?

I'm not sure why you selected an incorrect guess as a best answer but whatever I mean technically you probably could play it on a GT 610 on low...at 4 or 5 frames per second.

If GTA V is as badly optimized as GTA IV was then you are going to need an enthusiast level card and those cards will be bottlenecked by your CPU. What is your max budget? Any graphics card upgrade is going to need a power supply upgrade as well unless you have a good one you just didn't post.

Im sorry his was the first one i heard and to your question is, how much would it take for 30-40 fps i mean i cant exactly go above $400

 

[Gracodana]

I would be really surprised if you could the gt 610 is a very low end card as said above not really ment for gaming.

For $400 get a GTX 970 for ~$330 and spend the rest on a decent power supply. The card will be bottlenecked by your CPU pretty badly though.

Honestly since the game has not been released or benchmarked yet you might want to wait and see. Anyone pretending to know the game's system requirements is wrong as they haven't been released yet as of yesterday.

It's possible the game may need a better CPU than what you have as well. Or at least need a major overclock from what you have to be playable. In that case the graphics card upgrade would be a waste of money.

Wait, the 960 is being released in a couple of weeks so that is going too be about $250, you get a decent EVGA 600w 80+ psu for around $50 and an i3 4130 for about $100. That all works out.

FX to i3 is a sideways 'upgrade' if it's an upgrade at all. Sure you might get a few FPS more with the i3 in some games but not enough to justify the money or time and effort.

Note that for an upgrade to be justifiable ( noticeable ) you need to move at least 3 tiers on the list.

FX 4300 to i3 is only 1 tier.

Damn well i should have just gotten one of the NExt-Gen Consoles would have beaten buying a desktop that isnt worth shit i even have lier right here http://www.bestbuy.com/site/ibuypower-desktop-amd-fx-series-8gb-memory-500gb-hard-drive-black-blue/6980021.p?id=1218818471270&skuid=6980021&sellerId=

Dont buy prebuilt computers thats what I see.

 

[Deleted member 217926]

For around that price level you could have built one yourself that would actually play games. I don't know how they get away with calling something like that a 'gaming' computer except that Angry Birds and Solitaire are games.

I know it's rediculious their not even slightly balanced, I saw one with a 750 (non ti) and a i7 4790, do they not know anything about bottleneck.

 

[Marx6123]

I geuss i could try to refund it but like that'll help

 

[Gracodana]

Yeah maybe thats worth a shot, there are still things that you can use like the ram and case( I swear that the case has a larer budget then the GPU in that) and maybe psu, big maybe though.

You could put a higher mid level graphics card in it like the AMD R9 280/280X or Nvidia GTX 960/GTX 770 with a power supply upgrade and have a decent little gaming box out of it.

However:

New games coming out right now are pushing the limits of existing tech. If you don't have high end you don't get to play the newest games, at least not on higher settings. Some games like AC Unity basically need my listed system to be playable at 1920 x 1080. That is partially a badly optimized game ( something GTA is famous for ) and partially that game makers are really pushing limits.

So what I am trying to say is you can play games with the box you have and a graphics/power supply upgrade. Most games and on higher settings. But don't expect the same from new games.

Wait and see what the required specs are for GTA V and then decide if it's worth it to you.

I refunded and will just get a Steam Machine
