Our GTA 6 FPS Calculator estimates your frame rate for Grand Theft Auto VI based on your PC hardware. Select your GPU, CPU, RAM, and storage type — or use a quick preset — and instantly see projected FPS at 1080p, 1440p, and 4K resolutions.
The calculator uses predicted GTA 6 system requirements derived from RAGE 9 engine analysis, PS5 hardware baselines, and historical Rockstar PC port performance data. It factors in VRAM limitations, CPU bottlenecks, storage bandwidth, and RAM capacity to give you realistic FPS estimates.
These are educated predictions based on RAGE 9 engine analysis, PS5 hardware baselines, and historical Rockstar PC port performance. Rockstar has not released official PC requirements. Actual FPS may vary by ±15-25%. The estimates assume native resolution without DLSS or FSR.
GTA 6 launches on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 19, 2026. Based on Rockstar's history (GTA V: 18-month gap, RDR2: 12-month gap), the PC version is expected in late 2027 or early 2028. No official PC date has been announced.
At 1080p with low-to-medium settings, a GTX 1660 / RX 5600 XT with a modern 6-core CPU and 16GB RAM should hit 30-45 FPS. For stable 60 FPS at 1080p, you'll want at minimum an RTX 3060 / RX 6700 XT with DLSS/FSR Quality mode enabled.
The base estimates show native resolution FPS. DLSS Quality mode typically adds 30-50% FPS, DLSS Performance adds 50-80%, and DLSS Balanced adds 40-60%. FSR offers similar gains. Factor these in based on your GPU support.
GTA 6's RAGE 9 engine streams world assets in real-time. HDDs cannot feed data fast enough, causing severe pop-in and stuttering. SATA SSDs are the minimum, but NVMe Gen 4 SSDs provide the texture streaming bandwidth needed for smooth gameplay, especially at high speeds.
8GB VRAM will likely run GTA 6 at 1080p medium settings with acceptable performance, but you'll hit texture memory limits at higher settings. 12GB is the sweet spot for 1080p high / 1440p medium, and 16GB+ is recommended for 1440p high and 4K.
