The official requirement list is a compatibility baseline and does not specify Vulkan versus DirectX 12 performance.

Installation, updates, launcher data, and working space can require practical storage headroom beyond the listed game requirement.

Can my PC run it?

Check the whole requirement, not one part

  1. Open Windows System Information and note your exact CPU, installed RAM, and OS.
  2. Open Task Manager or your GPU control panel and note the exact GPU and dedicated VRAM.
  3. Confirm free storage, required graphics API support, and any platform-specific security requirement.
  4. Compare every field with one official tier. A stronger GPU does not compensate for an unsupported OS or CPU instruction set.
  5. After compatibility is confirmed, use the FPS Calculator for a supported GPU-side performance reference.

Read the tiers correctly

Requirements are not an FPS guarantee

Meeting recommended requirements does not guarantee 60, 90, or 120 FPS at a particular preset. Open-world scenes, towns, weather, and simulation load can change performance.

GamePerfHub keeps Rockstar's compatibility list separate from its source FPS observations and does not infer a hidden full-system score.
