GTA V at a glance
GTA V is an open world game from 2015. The recommended graphics listed by the Steam store page: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB / AMD HD 7870 2GB. It asks for 8 GB of RAM (minimum 4 GB).
Our estimate: you need about a GTX 780 for a steady 60 FPS at 1080p High, while an RX 550 can hold around 30 FPS on Low. The game is moderately demanding on the processor; a Core i5-7600K or better keeps up with 60 FPS. On basic Intel UHD 630 graphics expect only about 22 FPS on Low, so a dedicated graphics card makes a big difference.
