Think an RTX 3070 can pull it?

[Orsa Torsa]

Were talking with full ray tracing and max graphics. 1440p

EDIT UPDATE: After getting in game and testing myself, It ran great, slid everything to Ultra where it had the option and very high, ray tracing options on max. 1440p. Ran great, tested with driving around the city. Thought it would personally look better on a PC but doesnt look bad.

RTX 3070 8GB, i5 3.7ghz 10 core, 64gb ram, 1tb nvme samsung ssd.

And yet here you are confidently spreading nonsense like some console player pretending to be a tech expert. We don’t even know how well RT is implemented in the enhanced version yet but I can guarantee a 3070 with a comparable CPU will NOT run it at max settings with RT enabled at 1440p. You're out here telling others to 'stop making a fool of themselves' while doing exactly that yourself. Maybe take your own advice and do some research before posting

Ha, ha, ha!, just read your previous answer: "My guess is that op can play at high/medium settings without RT."

You answered that without knowing his CPU and I just gave you proof that the 3070 has no problems with GTA V (without RT). The rest is just your nonsense. Don't answer again, it's useless to argue with you.

Haha, wow, the confidence of being wrong is actually impressive. Yes, I said OP can likely play at high/medium settings without RT, because a 3070 even with a decent CPU is not handling GTA V with full ray tracing and max settings at 1440p with high FPS. That's just a fact.

And your so called 'proof' is meaningless because you keep conveniently ignoring RT. Of course, a 3070 can run GTA V (without RT) at high FPS no one argued that. But pretending that means it can magically max out the enhanced version with full ray tracing? That's just pure copium.

Youre so desperate to act like an expert yet you completely miss the most important part of the discussion. Maybe instead of trying (and failing) to dismiss people with ‘don’t answer again you should take a step back and realize that you don’t actually know as much as you think you do. Because you're just proving my point.

bruh. i had a 3070 and it maxes out gta v legacy at 1440P with 8x MSAA and still got well over 100 fps nearly anywhere in the game.

Even with Grass quality on ultra?

yes, fully maxed out.

what cpu? gpu should be fine at 1440p

Global Illumination runs fine in any game in the past decade that I've played that used it.

It's not the same as RT Lighting as seen in Cyberpunk which will tank your FPS by upto 80% depending on your system.

This is RTGI. It's not your standard GI. If you want to see the difference then this video from digital foundry shows Dying Light 2 with RTGI on and off. Using it will be expensive here, but how much we'll have to see.

Oh man, this aged like milk. Turns out I was right, you actually do need a solid machine to run GTA V at max settings with full ray tracing. Who would've thought? (Well… me, but you were too busy acting like a tech expert to listen.)

You came in here all cocky, laughing like you had it all figured out, yet completely ignored the fact that RT changes everything. A 3070 alone isn’t enough to max out the enhanced version, and now you’re stuck pretending this conversation never happened.

Next time, maybe do some actual research before trying to act like the smartest guy in the room. Because right now, you’re just proving you had no clue what you were talking about from the start.

absolute nonsense. my 2080 Ti which is just about even with a 3070 runs it maxed out flawlessly. only time it dips below 60 FPS is when im near trees and even then it only drops down to like 49-51 which is perfectly playable. i have not tried DLSS yet as i dislike how it looks.

sub 50fps isnt playable in 2025 in a 12yo game

that just sounds like elitist BS. ray tracing is taxing on hardware and considering the 3070 is 5 years old? id say it runs pretty well. you're welcome to drop 10K on an rtx 5090- if you really want to but fact is it does run on a 3070

my point still stands, sub50fps is atrocious on a modern display. even 144hz is considered low end. even 200$ displays are starting at 180hz

you have no idea and it shows lol. low fps = mouse lag = bad experience. anything below 100fps feels atrocious on the mouse, even with nvidia reflex

50 fps is not going to give you input lag unless you have VSYNC enabled which is on you for being stupid. i have multiple monitors and computers and not one single time have i ever felt any sort of lag on sub 100 fps. you got something weird going on.

[Xedius]

3070ti and 7800x3d 1440p dlss quality max settings plus RT almost 100 fps everywhere. Even in forest where it tanks it doesn't go below 70-80 fps. It will run perfectly on your 3070.

you literally have no idea what youre talking about. XDDD you must be 60+ years old to not feel the INPUT LAG of 50fps vs 100fps
