info_outline Other Game Notes
  • Official PC system requirements for 'Grand Theft Auto VI' have NOT been released by Rockstar Games. The PC version is expected to release AFTER the console versions (PS5, Xbox Series X/S - May 26, 2026). The following specifications are **speculative/expected** based on industry analysis, rumored engine capabilities (RAGE 9), and the demanding nature of previous Rockstar titles. These are subject to change significantly upon official announcement. An NVMe SSD will almost certainly be required for the PC version.
  • Laptop Performance Note: When official PC requirements are released, playing GTA VI on a laptop will demand a very high-end gaming laptop from the latest generations. Laptop GPUs and CPUs perform differently than their desktop counterparts due to power (TGP) and thermal constraints. **The estimations below are highly speculative and for a future PC release.** Users should always consult specific laptop model reviews and official game requirements once available.
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P Impact: Total Graphics Power (TGP) will be paramount. High TGP variants of any mobile GPU will be essential for playable framerates.
  • Laptop Consideration: Advanced Cooling Thermals: Exceptional cooling solutions (vapor chambers, liquid metal, multiple high-CFM fans) will be necessary to prevent severe thermal throttling in such a demanding title.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Performance Sustain: A flagship mobile CPU (e.g., future Intel Core i9 HX or AMD Ryzen 9 HX series) capable of sustained high performance will be required to avoid bottlenecks.
  • Laptop Consideration: R A M Configuration Speed: 32GB of fast DDR5 RAM (or newer standards by release) in dual-channel will likely be the recommended minimum for a smooth experience on PC, and thus for high-end laptops.
  • Laptop Consideration: Display Panel G P U Pairing: Matching a high-resolution (1440p+) and high-refresh-rate (120Hz+) laptop display with a top-tier mobile GPU will be key, with reliance on upscaling technologies.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch N V I D I A Advanced Optimus: Essential for maximizing performance from the dedicated GPU.
  • Laptop Consideration: Driver Updates O S Optimization: Crucial for any demanding PC title, especially on laptops.
  • Optimization Detail: Upscaling Tech: Support for latest versions of NVIDIA DLSS, AMD FSR, and Intel XeSS is expected and will be crucial for achieving playable framerates at higher resolutions and settings on PC, especially laptops.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Resolution, Texture Quality, Draw Distance, Population Density, Shadow Quality, Water Physics, Ray Tracing (if implemented) will heavily impact performance.
  • Game Name: Grand Theft Auto VI
  • Official system requirements from Ubisoft (as of game launch). Performance can vary depending on specific hardware, settings, and background applications. An SSD is recommended for optimal performance.
  • Laptop Performance Note: Laptop models of listed desktop GPUs may work if their performance is comparable. Performance on laptops is also heavily influenced by cooling and the GPU's Total Graphics Power (TGP). The estimated laptop specs below are approximate and reflect performance tiers for the game's original release period. **Modern laptop GPUs (NVIDIA RTX 30-series, RTX 40-series, and newer AMD equivalents) will significantly exceed these original recommendations and offer excellent performance across all resolutions.**
  • Laptop Consideration: G P U T G P: Higher TGP in a laptop GPU generally correlates with better sustained performance.
  • Laptop Consideration: Cooling Thermals: Good cooling is essential to prevent thermal throttling during demanding gameplay.
  • Laptop Consideration: C P U Power Limits: Laptops with higher CPU power limits can maintain boost clocks longer.
  • Laptop Consideration: M U X Switch Optimus: Using a MUX switch (if available) or ensuring the dedicated GPU is prioritized over integrated graphics (via NVIDIA Control Panel/AMD Software) is recommended for optimal framerates.
  • Optimization Detail: Key Settings Impact: Texture Quality, Shadow Quality, Water Quality, Volumetric Fog, and Anti-Aliasing heavily impact performance.
  • Game Name: Far Cry 5
