I would take this "leak" with a grain of salt. They seem too good to be true.

Jesus I'm counting down the days

I now believe they might have stalled it so they can avoid Steam Sale? lol It appears every new game out on Steam always goes on sale immediately.

Doubtful though. This wait has been too long.

 

[Cybertox]

They seem to be way too low. GeForce GTX 480 or Radeon HD 6970 as recommended? Nope.

 

[barkinos98]

Yeah as a turk i can confirm
The link also states it is a rumor from another site

Its also the first time i saw a gt530 in existsnce i thought it was only 520 and 540 lol

 

[Crouch]

I'm having a hard time believing that I'll be able to max the game out on my rig

 

[hojnikb]

I bet these are not that far off. Remember, GTA V was made for last gen consoles. Everything else was just ported from that.

GTA V on PC was developed specifically for the PC in parallel to the console version. I think the PS4/Xbone version is a port of the PC version though.

Yes, a very well-done port from the looks for it.

 

[Cybertox]

Considering the time that they took developing GTA V for PC it is possible that the upcoming GTA V was developed specifically for PC, dont get your hopes too high though as I dont believe these requirements to be 100% legit. The source aint very credible either.

 

[supergamer]

20GB only lol fake!
5 year old GPUs as recommended.. such fail.

 

[DrBrogbo]

I would be absolutely astounded if the recommended weren't at least a 290 and a 780.

I would also be absolutely astounded if the game even fired up with a 530 and an e8200.

 

[The Source]

Given the last year or so of releases this seems out of place. If the recommended was the minimum that would make sense. If it's true, then I'll start to worry a little bit about it being another parity title.

 

[MrLinky]

Either somebody is trolling us or this is the most efficiently developed/ported game I have ever seen.

 

[TheLawIX]

Wow, looks like they really optimized that port!

It is not necessarily a port. It may have been developed specifically for the PC platform independently of the Xbox and PlayStation versions.

Huh? There is a huge graphical improvement between IV and V.

You're right. I'm pretty sure that's what they did too.

 

[Cybertox]

The graphical improvement is not huge but noticeable.

Now, I can agree with that statement. More ambient life and polished textures. Hope there is an even bigger difference from the PS3 / PS4 comparison to PS4 / PC.
