Grand Theft Auto 5 PC graphical options revealed

By Keith MitchellApril 8, 2015
Grand Theft Auto V
Grand Theft Auto V is the digital marketplace leader for T2 Interactive

PCgamer has been playing a lot of Grand Theft Auto 5 for the PC and has recently broke the news as to what we can expect for the graphical options. While they have been playing at a 4K resolution which will tax most PC’s out and does require a “Mega-Rig”, they have also started that if you’re gaming at 1080p or at 1440p then GTA5 won’t kick the crap out of your PC thanks to the staggering amount of graphical options that can be tuned and tweaked.
