Upgrade Advice
The GTX 1060 is not recommended for GTA 6. While it was a great 1080p card in its era, modern AAA games have moved far beyond it. Upgrade to an RTX 3060 (best value) or RTX 4060 for a proper GTA 6 experience. The 6GB VRAM is a major limitation for next-gen textures.
Frequently Asked Questions
