What computer to play it? Here's the minimum and recommended specs for GTA 6!

Although Rockstar Games hasn’t released the official specifications yet, current trends and expert analysis allow us to estimate the kind of hardware you’ll need to run this highly anticipated game. Here’s what you need to know to be ready for the launch of GTA 6.

To play in decent conditions, you’ll need a fairly recent PC. The minimum configuration to launch the game might include: an up-to-date Windows 10 operating system, an Intel Core i5-8500 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor, 16 GB of RAM, a graphics card like the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 8 GB or AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, and a fast SSD with at least 150 to 160 GB of storage. With this setup, you should be able to play at 1080p with medium graphic settings and a framerate of 30 to 60 FPS, depending on how well the game is optimized at release.

For those aiming for a smoother experience and full graphical enjoyment, you’ll want to go higher. The recommended specs might include a fully updated Windows 10 or 11 OS, an Intel Core i5-13400F or AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU, and up to 32 GB of RAM for extra comfort. A graphics card such as the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4060 8 GB or RTX 4080 Super, or an AMD Radeon RX 7600 or RX 7950XT, along with a 150 to 160 GB NVMe SSD for reduced loading times, would be ideal. This configuration should let you play in 1080p or even 1440p with high settings and a stable 60 FPS.

A few extra details not to overlook: storage is crucial to avoid long loading times, so a fast SSD is highly recommended, especially for a world as vast as GTA 6’s. As for RAM, 16 GB will be enough for the minimum specs, but 32 GB is more comfortable—especially if you run other applications in the background while gaming. A 1440p IPS or OLED monitor would be perfect for enjoying the visuals, though the game is also playable at 1080p. Lastly, make sure your sound card is compatible with DirectX 12 to ensure optimal audio immersion.

If your PC doesn’t quite meet these requirements yet, you can upgrade it by adding more RAM, installing an SSD, or replacing the graphics card. These upgrades will not only prepare your system for GTA 6 but also allow you to enjoy upcoming AAA titles more smoothly.
