hey everyone this is Steve and today we're looking at two of our benchmark courses we used when testing video card performance in gta5 the new Grand Theft Auto 5 just shipped for PC a couple of hours ago we developed one course in game for testing and then we used the game's pre build to benchmark test tool for our other course which is what you see here and we also looked at all the games options the options are pretty impressive for GTA 5 it shows even video memory consumption which is a very cool feature that I hope more game developers will implement in the future game has all kinds of sliders in its settings for population density population variety distance scaling view distance detail streaming as you're flying in airborne vehicles and then of course it's got the usual texture shader shadow all those quality settings that you can set to effectively normal which is a medium or low equivalent all the way up to ultra with most of them capping at very high so that's an overview of the settings and what you're looking at currently and for the last little bit has been part of our benchmark course this is what we used when testing the game and the benchmark article will be online within a couple of hours if not sooner and it's got all the charts for performance of video cards and things like that so do stay tuned to Twitter and to the website gamers Nexus dotnet or at Cambridge Nexus for updates as our benchmarks go live they will all be complete and online within the next few hours we'll follow up with another YouTube video after I get some sleep because I've been up for the last forever testing this game so that is everything I have for you on GTA 5 right now I hope you found it interesting just a quick note this video was captured using sli gtx 980 is from PNY and as you can see it runs at a very fluid and high fps and frequently jumps over 60 FPS 70 FPS we even tested in 4k which is what this was and then scaled down to 1080 so more of that in the article later today I'll see you all next time you
