Below Minimum (Upgrade Needed)RAGE 9 Hardware Telemetry

Can the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (4GB) Run GTA 6?

Architecture: Turing (TU117) · VRAM: 4GB GDDR5/GDDR6 · Power: 75W TDP

Quick Answer & Verdict

The GTX 1650 is below GTA 6's recommended minimum hardware specification. Due to its 4GB VRAM limit and lack of hardware ray-tracing, it struggles to reach 30 FPS at 1080p Low, resulting in severe texture pop-in and stuttering during high-speed vehicle pursuits.

Optimal In-Game Settings Preset

Recommended Profile:

720p/900p Low with AMD FSR Performance mode

Ray Tracing Viability:

Unsupported. Hardware lacks RT Cores; ray tracing must remain disabled.

Recommended Hardware Pairings

Recommended Processor (No Bottleneck):

Intel Core i5-10400F or AMD Ryzen 5 3600

Power Supply Requirement:

350W - 450W

Recommended Upgrade Path (+220% FPS Gain)

Upgrade to RTX 4060 (8GB)

Triples your frame rate, adds DLSS 3, and runs GTA 6 at a locked 60+ FPS for under $300 without needing a massive power supply upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can GTA 6 run on a GTX 1650 laptop or desktop?

Technically yes, but only at 720p or 900p on the lowest settings with FSR enabled, hovering between 25 and 35 FPS. For an enjoyable open-world experience, an upgrade to at least an RTX 3060 or RTX 4060 is strongly advised.
