Since its PC debut in 2015, Grand Theft Auto V was a welcomed breath of fresh air for a lot of people. Even now, the game is still very popular because it has regular updates that are adding interesting content for the online mode. For the ones that prefer the single-player experience, there are tons of mods – some of them are just a visual upgrade and others are total conversion.

One curious fact, the game is a pretty good PC port but even now, five years after the game was released, if you want to crank all the settings to the max, you’ll need a very powerful machine (even for 1080p). This big open world still needs a lot of hardware resources. For this article, we are about the see the performance of the GeForce GTX 1650 [40W, 896 CUDA, GDDR6] and the GeForce GTX 1650 [50W, 1024 CUDA, GDDR5].
