That's a lot of CPU, that looks like it will be my bottleneck more than graphics. I'm set to 4.2GHz but on an older CPU with smaller cache

I would love to play GTA5 again. But since owning it on the xbox 360, I don't think I'll bother.....I think I would get bored playing it again.

I would love to play GTA5 again...I don't think I'll bother.

I would have played the story again some time ago, but I held off expecting a PC version.
After the story my main thing was racing (did about 2000). After coming back to it on PS3 I've not done any more racing so as not to spoil my appetite. Over the past couple of months I've amassed 5.25 million from doing survivals, so I have a nice pot for the PC, and have resisted doing any other activity.
I've been anticipating the day that will be Tuesday for about 2 years. When it comes out I will be intravenously connected to the game.

You got bad internet, think mine took about 5 hours, It is a beast though? I only just got fibre optic last year, trouble is you can download things so fast you really need unlimited data

I am on superfast, but still seemed to only be DLing at 1.5ish a second. Do wonder why it is quite so big (weren't previous examples of this to do with sound files and language packs etc?)

I downloaded this last night from 11pm, at 9-12 mb per second. It finished by morning but I don't know exactly when as I was asleep. The complete file is 64,489,373,806 bytes. When I was downloading the installer said it would be done in 1hr 50 minutes.

In other terms that would be almost 80 switches for every person on the planet just to store the data for your game. Wow.

Dayyyum. Time to start deleting things to leave a reasonable amount of space and get this puppy on there. That's a massive amount of data for a game.....Im sure it will be worth it....but not if I have to get rid of hello kitty and littlest pet shop. No...just no. :nono:

Clicking on it to run and get nothing. GTA5 splash screen opens then closes. Good start Rockstar...
