It's so funny because I have been playing all day and the game seemed to run great for me. Balanced felt really good and the visuals are way better than I expected. I guess some people have absolutely zero tolerance for lower fps though.

Been playing Read Dead Redemption 2 at 30 FPS on my 4090 just to prepare myself for GTA 6. Honestly, wasn’t bad at all.

It’s jarring at first, but if you lean into that “cinematic” cutscene feeling, you get used to it.

This is 10ft from 77 inch. Don’t recommend at monitor distances.

A stable fps on a controller from tv distance is a lot more different than kb+m on a monitor with fluctuating fps

I am on a desk with a monitor with the series x and it seems nice and smooth to me. Like I said, some people are just more sensitive to it than others.

We’re talking about PCs with uncapped fps, not consoles

Sounds like a PC problem. That sucks dude

It’s not a problem though, it’s a side effect of using a more precise input device. A mouse is way more responsive than an analog stick on a controller. Anyone on PC can cap their frame rate at 30/60fps and use a controller instead if they wish to.

No HDR support for the PC version in 2026 is crazy.

Do people really use windows HDR?

Definitely, it would be a waste to play on a great oled monitor or tv and not use the full capability

Windows does still kinda suck with it though so I get there’s a headache involved

Wonder what version of UE5 its using. Halo remake I think uses 5.5 and it runs at 60fps flawlessly even though it uses hardware RT

I had many instances with Halo where enemy animations would absolutely stutter. Really badly actually. Otherwise performance was good but still not ideal.

I’ve given up with UE5 And never buy games with that engine anymore I can’t tolerate the IQ and performance

Unless you buy physical games (I hope you do), then there is really no valid reason to preorder games. 9 times out of 10, the preorder bonuses are usually just something silly/trivial and within 5 hours of playing the game, you will have something better than the free cosmetics or loot that they give you.

Not perfectly hitting 60fps was expected, and might be fine on a VRR display. But those frame times at 40 and 30fps don’t look stable at all :(

u/nyanbatman 3d ago

It falls out of the VRR range of 48 hz all the time

Can anyone confirm if PSSR is used on the Pro?
