Grand Theft Auto V

Now a truly venerable title, GTA V is a veteran of past game suites that is still graphically demanding as they come. As an older DX11 title, it provides a glimpse into the graphically intensive games of yesteryear that don't incorporate the latest features. Originally released for consoles in 2013, the PC port came with a slew of graphical enhancements and options. Just as importantly, GTA V includes a rather intensive and informative built-in benchmark, somewhat uncommon in open-world games.

The settings are identical to its previous appearances, which are custom as GTA V does not have presets. To recap, a "Very High" quality is used, where all primary graphics settings turned up to their highest setting, except grass, which is at its own very high setting. Meanwhile 4x MSAA is enabled for direct views and reflections. This setting also involves turning on some of the advanced rendering features - the game's long shadows, high resolution shadows, and high definition flight streaming - but not increasing the view distance any further.

    The chart on the first page says the GTX 1660 SUPER has GDDR5 memory instead of GDDR6.

    Some days you can't even get the small things right...

    Thanks!

    the super has gddr6 memory, there chart must be wrong.
  • nevcairiel - Tuesday, October 29, 2019 - link

    Seems like a healthy boost for only swapping out the memory. Should make a good mid-tier card.

    The owners of the GTX 1660 Ti took one in the **nuggets**, but it's good to see the price/performance curve trending down.

    AMD’s Radeon RX 5500 series have a mark on which to aim __ hard to say that nVidia didn't see that coming. The RX 590/580/570's might take a bit of a haircut but good to know that Polaris lives on ...

    How so? The Ti might be a poor choice now that the Super is available for purchase, but that wasn't the case until this week.

    Because *rabble rabble rabble*, that's why.

    This always happens, just ignore those comments - an 8 month later comparison of products.

    This launch is very good for the mainstream segment, as AMD now has to deliver a compelling product in this price bracket, that has to beat the nvidia counterpart on the perf/$

    This is win for everyone.

    Ti users can just overclock the memory. I rather have the extra processing cores.

    Agreed, 15% is the high end of what you can do, but the TI overclocked should beat this card by a lot more than 3%.
