Frequently Asked Questions

What graphics card do I need to run Grand Theft Auto VI at 1440p?

For a smooth 60 FPS at 1440p (high settings, no upscaling), you want at least an AMD RX 6800 XT (around $279). Faster cards give you headroom for higher refresh rates or ray tracing.

Is Grand Theft Auto VI CPU or GPU intensive?

Grand Theft Auto VI leans on your CPU - a weak processor will cap your frame rate no matter how strong the GPU. Pair a modern 6-8 core chip (Ryzen 5/7 or Core i5/i7) with your card.

What FPS does the NVIDIA RTX 5090 get in Grand Theft Auto VI?

Paired with a fast CPU, the NVIDIA RTX 5090 pushes roughly 123 FPS at 1080p, 89 at 1440p, and 53 at 4K in Grand Theft Auto VI (native, high settings - upscaling raises these).

Is Grand Theft Auto VI out on PC yet?

Grand Theft Auto VI isn't available on PC yet (targeting 2026). These requirements and FPS figures are our prediction based on comparable engines and titles - we'll update them the moment official specs land. Predicted; PC version unconfirmed by Rockstar

FPS estimates are modeled from GPU/CPU performance tiers and each game's typical demands - honest ranges, not measured benchmarks. Real numbers vary with settings, drivers, upscaling (DLSS/FSR), and scene. Prices are approximate; confirm at the retailer.
