1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,960
it took 574 days or one year 6 months

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:11,639
and 28 days after the initial console release for Rockstar to release GTA5 on

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:17,660
PC was it worth the wait stay tuned to find out and stay subscribed for our GTA

4
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:22,659
6 video coming in 202 or

5
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:30,400
something Intel's new 750 series ssds

6
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:34,840
utilize the NVMe standard providing speeds never seen before on consumer

7
00:00:32,239 --> 00:00:40,520
storage drives click now to learn more I'm going to spoil the ending a bit

8
00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:43,000
GTA 5 runs really well on PC definitely

9
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:47,120
better than I actually expected but I guess that's what we get in exchange for

10
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:51,680
all those delays the settings menu is nothing short of Glorious with a whack

11
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:55,760
ton of options and scaling available memory bar based on the options it

12
00:00:53,879 --> 00:00:59,680
doesn't fail to please the feel the view settings could definitely be better but

13
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:03,079
realistically the game wasn't designed to be played in first person so I don't

14
00:01:01,519 --> 00:01:06,680
think this was really the end of the world the settings under the advanced

15
00:01:04,839 --> 00:01:11,840
menu have the potential to push your system very hard and mostly don't have a

16
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:15,439
massive impact on actual gameplay viewability and whatnot so I suggest not

17
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:21,000
messing with this too much unless you have a beast system one more note on

18
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:25,240
settings before we move on msaa above 2x can be quite taxing on your system in

19
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:28,159
the daytime specifically be careful with this setting because it will affect

20
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:32,960
performance quite differently depending on the time of day in the game at night

21
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:38,040
time it's not that bad at daytime it's really heavy now this game's performance

22
00:01:35,159 --> 00:01:42,200
while great on PC is quite variable depending on the lighting of the scene

23
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:47,079
if you're inside or outside if it's day or night how much stuff is going on

24
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,439
around you Etc this game is huge and

25
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:52,640
there's a ton of different things to do which is great in a gameplay standpoint

26
00:01:50,719 --> 00:01:56,960
but I don't think they properly captured this in their Benchmark which was a

27
00:01:55,320 --> 00:02:02,600
little bit more extreme than mine in both ways resulting in theirs having a

28
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:05,479
lower minimum and higher maximum FPS and

29
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:09,560
a slightly higher average FPS than mine in terms of performance I decided to

30
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:13,319
test a bit more than we normally do these videos are usually just graphics

31
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:16,760
card showdowns but you guys might want to know a little bit more about how the

32
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:21,400
whole system will perform when underload with GTA 5 so first up is CPU core usage

33
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:25,840
Rockstar did quite a good job balancing the CPU usage for this game although GTA

34
00:02:23,599 --> 00:02:30,239
did act a little bit oddly when interacting with hyperthreads resulting

35
00:02:27,959 --> 00:02:34,160
in the client largely ignoring them on the high end in terms of cores although

36
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:38,879
it did end up using them properly when the overall thread count was lower

37
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:42,760
resulting in a pretty flat performance across the board All Things Considered

38
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:47,440
with the dual core no hyperthreading setup lagging behind slightly and the

39
00:02:44,959 --> 00:02:52,280
quad core Sweet Spot reigning Supreme once again and finally the graphics card

40
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:56,040
performance Showdown we set our 1080p bench up with some pretty aggress

41
00:02:53,879 --> 00:03:00,640
aggressive settings after riging up the very high preset we put on 2x msaa

42
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:04,840
softest shadows and took vsync off because well it's a benchmark

43
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:08,640
unsurprisingly NVIDIA did quite well this is an NVIDIA title after all and it

44
00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:14,239
was very apparent that both companies saw this as an important release as they

45
00:03:11,239 --> 00:03:16,000
both had dedicated GTA 5 driver releases

46
00:03:14,239 --> 00:03:20,280
although it must also be noted that AMD's driver is a beta driver so if

47
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:24,120
you're an AMD Graphics user and are planning to play GTA 5 I would suggest

48
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:28,159
grabbing that beta driver if you aren't already a beta user it seemed stable

49
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:33,439
enough in my testing so you'll probably be fine at 1080p everything seemed to go

50
00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:35,360
pretty smoothly although with the 750 Ti

51
00:03:33,439 --> 00:03:40,080
and the 260x things did get a little bit sketchy with stutters and some input lag

52
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:44,519
every once in a while the 4K story was similar in terms of overall card

53
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:49,720
positioning and we ran this test in high with softest Shadows or soft air Shadows

54
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:53,280
no AA and vsync off however at 4K problems started with the 270x and

55
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:59,200
included the 265 and 750 Ti and 260x yet again this

56
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:03,640
game really doesn't seem to enjoy running under 30 FPS as it stuttered

57
00:04:01,599 --> 00:04:07,200
quite a bit with those cards thanks for watching did you like the inclusion of

58
00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:11,519
CPU core benchmarks would you like to see more benchmarks like these in gaming

59
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:16,720
videos in the future maybe like RAM usage vram usage um overall load on the

60
00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:20,199
CPU anything like that let me know in the comments down below or over on the
