Anyone here able to estimate how well the game will run on my system?

Just saw that an over clocked FX6300 averages about 50 fps with high-ultra settings.
That's hot. Especially since every 6300 chip can do 4.2ghz easily, since that's the turbo speed. You pretty much just have to lock it rather than OC.
This really is a quality port.
Edit: Visibility was SRT at 75% too according to the post. Said in city stuff was pretty much locked at 50. Hot shit.

Yeah these are similar to mine during my playthrough. Very impressed. I scaled back the AA (since it's 4k) and PCSS to keep it well above 60. Minimum fps stays above 50 even during the worst parts of the "benchmark test". With adaptive vsync (triple buffering off), the game is smooth as butter!

Those settings work great. Was worried about the 2GB but not anymore.

I switched from my TV to my GSync screen and it will probably stay that way. Shooting with kb/m is too good.
Running the game with an uncapped framerate shows that it is pushing my 3770K hard temperature wise. This is a far cry from GTA4, very nice.

Anyone know how to get DSR running for this? I don't see it when I pull the program up in NVIDIA control panel.
EDIT: Nevermind, stupid me. Found it in the general section.

1080p, Very high settings with all the sliders (except motion blur) on max, 4x MSAA. None of the advanced settings on. Game runs around 50-60 fps, with drops to the low 40's. Not bad, will try setting some options to ultra+ enabling some of the advanced settings tomorrow and see how it holds up.

gta 4 on pc still gives me nightmares
Pretty sure that's not how it works. The game just incorrectly shows 1.5GB/2GB, 1.5GB/4GB, 1.5GB/6GB.
Helpful, thanks. I don't think I'll get the game now, since TW2 will keep me busy until May, but it is very nice to see a 680 getting those numbers with those settings. Personally, I would max out other settings and have a comfy 40-50fps.

I need to jack a plane and see what the draw distance is like.
So far all my experiences have been on foot or in a vehicle.
Flying will probably put strain on things, but who knows. I'm very happy with Rockstar's effort.

Haven't bought the game yet, but is there anyone who has played at specs similar to this:
i7-4720HQ (2.6GHz - 3.6GHz)
8GB RAM
GTX 970
If so, how is it performing for you?
To anyone who is running the game with HDD instead of SSD, what performance issues have been going on? I haven't gotten an SSD just yet and it seems like that playing it on there is the better option according to some posts here.

Not impressed with the optimization at all.

Sli 970s
@1440p
cant get a consistent 60fps at all. sits around 50 most the time.
using mostly very high with 2xmsaa

Has anyone noticed mouse stuttering navigating the in-game menu? Not during gameplay, just the menu. Also, alt-tabbing and typing a comment in Neogaf, Reddit, address bar or anywhere else is noticeably laggy while GTA5 is running in the background. I have 6gb of ram which is below the recommended amount but utilization isn't showing that much north of 4gb so I don't know if it's a problem on my end.

Drop some of the sliders in the advanced setting if you're using them. The distance scaling is probably one of the heavier hitters.

What is RTSS?
Netherscourge

RAM is probably the reason. The game uses a lot of it. After that, you're probably page-filing from your HDD or SSD and that'll cause stuttering.
I definitely recommend at least 8GB or RAM for this game.
12GB or more if you want to stream or jump in and out of tabs.

Shadow Quality on Very High looks so good at night when the headlights cause long shadows on all objects, but that costs me about 5fps. Some parts of the city have my GPU only at 50% load and doesnt even clock up all the way. And some parts hammer the GPU at 99% max clocks, here setting shadows to High rather than Very High is the only way to get it back to 60.
My GPU should be as quick as something like a super clocked version of a 980. Yours a fair bit faster.
If you do enable Very High shadows, put the Extended Shadows Distance to minimum setting.

Turn down shadows to High, honestly the difference between High and Very High is not that big. With shadows on High my game runs uncapped at 70-80FPS at 1440p. Everything else is set according to Geforce Experience.
Also interested to know this.
my r9-290 holds up great by the looks of it!

I can only choose 59hz instead of 60hz in the display options. this seems to result in a stutter every second. How can I set the refresh rate to 60hz?
RivaTuner, an useful utility for framerate monitoring/limiting.

The game downloaded and installed a 300mb patch, then the installer closed. Now if I attempt to boot the game the GTA V boxart flashes up for a second and then nothing boots. What have I missed?
Apologies if this is a common fault I did a quick google search and didn't see anything.

Has anybody with the RSC version been able to add any of the executables to Steam and have it work?
Can this please be placed in OP

I was under the impression that the game would display playstation button prompts if a DS4 was being used. Is that not the case? I'm still seeing Xbox 360 prompts and I'm using a DS4 without the Xinput wrapper enabled.

Thanks, I'll look into swapping out one of my 2gb sticks for a 4gb and see if that helps. On a side note, my Nvidia TXAA setting is grayed out for some reason. I have a gtx 970 so I should be able to enable it. Does anyone know why?

how do you force 60fps on it?

Has anyone experienced problems with the anisotropic filtering?
It doesn't matter how high or low I set it, the textures turn blurry almost in front of my car with a hard edge. Seems like the filtering doesn't work at all

I am trying 1.25x DSR, All AA disabled and Particles High now. At night you cab test the effect of Very High Shafows, just get out of the car, your headlights turn off and the fps go back up. It's very taxing.

You have to turn on one of the other AA options first and then it'll let you activate the Nvidia stuff.
I think MSAA? I forget.
This game is so much better a lot of mid range to high end can easily go 60fps if they want to locked or near it can't do that with GTA4 for the most part at all.
Right. TXAA is kind of like an 'add on' to MSAA.

Yup, that's it. Thanks.
In the small square in the window (i think the default setting is 0) write 60. Leave rivatuner open and launch the game.
I fired up the benchmark test thing and I got the below result. Is that what it's meant to be?! I got part of the intro with day night cycle going super fast...then Lamar talking to Franklin while his model didn't load up....and then the cops started shooting. All this during the cutscene.

The game crashed on me before once.

Up to date on drivers etc.

Did you complete the first mission and get to a save point?
