Here’s What It’ll Take to Run GTA 6 on Your PC Smoothly
With GTA VI finally on the horizon, there’s one question floating around more than any plot theory or character leak: Does your computer have the power to handle GTA VI or will it break down like Trevor during a C4 explosion? Spoiler alert: GTA VI will demand top-tier performance and your outdated system probably won't make the cut.

GTA VI represents a complete evolution of hardware requirements beyond traditional sequel expectations.
The Telegraph's report indicates that GTA VI will emerge as a groundbreaking new-gen powerhouse. GTA VI will feature real-time ray tracing alongside hyper-realistic lighting and environments that surpass everything seen in GTA V.
GTA VI pushes hardware demands from GTA V levels into the next-gen range because it's like transitioning from a simple bicycle to a jet engine. GTA VI minimum requirements demand two to three times the processing power its predecessor required.
The rumored minimum GTA 6 PC specs have been leaked according to recent reports.
Rockstar Games have not officially released any information yet but according to early gameplay leaks and cinematic trailer footage, foreign outlets have provided these minimum requirements.
Your system struggles with 8GB of RAM and a spinning hard drive but you need to expand your hardware capabilities. Its gaming PC upgrade o’clock, buddy.
CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K (or AMD equivalent)
GPU: NVIDIA GTX 1660 (or higher)
RAM: 12GB
The upcoming GTA VI demands significantly more processing power than GTA V ever needed.
This isn’t just for prettier palm trees. GTA VI is expected to include:
Real-time ray tracing delivers next-gen gaming lighting and shadow effects.
• Massive, ultra-detailed environments (likely including multiple cities)
• Players should expect to see more realistic NPC behaviors along with advanced traffic systems and changing weather conditions.
• A cinematic storytelling style requires smoother operation through more powerful processing capabilities.
To handle all those features effectively requires significant processing power which becomes especially critical for GTA 6 system requirements.
