Grand Theft Auto V Legacy on GeForce GTX 1080

Well above recommendedEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

Yes. The GeForce GTX 1080 is well above Grand Theft Auto V Legacy's recommended spec. We estimate ~208 fps at 1080p high (range 166–249, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect ~145 fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 8 GB of video memory covers the 2 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.

Best settings

60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
60 fps at 1440p: ultra preset
144 fps at 1080p: ultra preset

This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 1080 back.
Processor needed for ~208 fps: Ryzen 7 3700X or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Core i5-3470): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 208.

Video memory

GeForce GTX 1080: 8 GB
Minimum spec: 1 GB (+7 GB headroom)
