Thanks everyone for saying can be downloaded with this disc! As seems cheaper than download sites and you get a map! but prefer to download and install overnight than swap 7 discs which is a bit retro for me!!

Is the graphics better than a PS4, my PC is high end with a ati R9 290 with 4GB ram

No , not much in it . PC looks marginally better to my eyes .Lots of youtube comparison videos worth a look at .

yes there is no difference on PC between a disc or download. intact even if you use the discs you still end up downloading any updates since the games release.

But would the quality etc be exactly the same on a downloaded version as it would on the actual disc?
Is the download version cheaper anywhere? can't seem to find any...

For the actual 'physical disc' version yes. It's a bargain

Instead of a hard copy how do I download it because my laptop has an i7 processor but no disc drive...

You can create an account on Rockstar Social Club and activate\download a retail copy there.

Nothing crappy about that cpu. It's only 4 years old. I'm still using a 9 year old Core 2 Duo E4300. :laughing:
Maybe I'll get round to upgrading at some point this year so I can finally play this game.

my son runs this on a crappy fx4100 CPU and an AMD HD7850.

Will it run on a Radeon HD 7700?

System requirements seen to suggest not , but this video says otherwise .
It will run, my friend has a first gen i7 and a gtx-610 or something like that he runs it on low and just gets 30 fps, so you should definitely be able to run it. Not at max obviously

Fantastic price and in stock at my local, which is even more amazing...
Heat OP, but even with this retail version, expect a massive download! And to think, I downloaded this originally on a 1.5MB connection before getting fibre :confused:

What do you get now on fibre? We have a 5mbps connection that's recently gone down to 4mbps :disappointed: We tried to get fibre and it was only about 7mbps but wasn't stable and kept going down to lower than normal ADSL speeds. Engineer came and found nothing wrong just too far from FTTC box! Was sort of able to get fibre money back from a discount on TV/Broadband for a year.

Just FYI that I don't believe retail copies can be activated on Steam if you want to do that.
high five!
20 Feb 161#25
Reserved one. Thanks !!

Does this activate on steam or rockstar social club
kip67 to joerob1972
20 Feb 16#19
you need a Rock star account to activate, I've not tried to activate on steam because you still need to create a Rock star account anyway.
When it comes from frankins choice, choose C. That's one mission you can't replay.

Would love to try this, just don't think my PC will cope! Could I return it if it struggles!

After the installation, you still need to install the updates which is about 20gb when I did it last month.

Can't work out how to insert a pic on the mobile app . However comes with the discs and a map of Los Santos . Also included is 1000000 dollars in game .

Fair enough - that seems very unusual, but useful for those without fast, unlimited broadband.

defo 7 DVDs and I know about the updates . better than doing the lot from scratch I thought.

Pretty sure you still have to face a massive download with this too! Unless it includes 6 DVDs like some foreign version did at launch :smiley:
kip67 to m3racer123

7 discs , I bought it.

It should have 6 DVDs, but you'll still have to download some massive updates.
kip67
20 Feb 16#7
yeah it's on disc , I bought it .

Is it confirmed that the game is even on the disc? Many PC releases have a minimum amount of data on the disc.
