Can the GTX 1080 Ti run GTA 6?
Compared with the PS5, which runs GTA 6 at 30 fps, the GTX 1080 Ti is close to it: it scores 85 where the PS5's graphics, matched by the Radeon RX 6700, score 100. In numbers that is 60 % of the PS5 Pro, 73 % of the Xbox Series X, 218 % of the Xbox Series S. The figure is our conversion of Notebookcheck's 3DMark Time Spy average onto the same scale, so treat it as an estimate. That is within 15 % of the console or ahead of it, but short of the 30 % lead we keep for the extra cost of a PC port.
The GTX 1080 Ti has 11 GB of video memory. Red Dead Redemption 2 recommended cards with 4 GB and GTA V Enhanced cards with 8 GB, so it meets the newer of the two with room to spare. Rockstar has not said what GTA 6 asks for; the PS5 shares 16 GB GDDR6 between its processor and graphics.
