Grand Theft Auto V is an action-adventure game played from either a first-person or third-person view. Players complete missions—linear scenarios with set objectives—to progress through the story. Outside of missions, players may freely roam the open world.
Composed of the San Andreas open countryside area and the fictional city of Los Santos, the world is much larger in area than earlier entries in the series. It may be fully explored after the game’s beginning without restriction, although story progress unlocks more gameplay content.
We use the Ultra quality settings (or the highest alternative – generally Very High or High – when Ultra is unavailable). MSAA is set to 2x for 1080p and 1440p and is disabled for 4K. The Advanced Graphics options are all set to their maximum levels.
GTA V is another positive showing for the Super JetStream, with it outperforming both Vega cards as well as MSI's 1070 Ti offering.
With the shortage of GDDR5X, I’m wondering if the GTX 1080 is being phased out, because this is (95% of) a GTX 1080 GDDR5. Maybe the endgame is for the 1080 to be discontinued, the GP104s going into 1070 Ti instead, and the GDDR5X to be saved for the 1080 Ti and possibly mid-range Volta cards if the early flagships use GDDR6?
