Vansterdam what I mean by "other version" I mean a pirated one. I have a legit copy on Steam (pre-ordered it) but the reason I need the "other" version is because I want to play the game with a bunch of mods, and I don't want to risk banning my GTA account online on Steam in case I want to play it online.

I have been putting off playing the game because they're about to release a bunch of mods. All I really want is real cars and physics, weapons, sounds, maybe some texture mods etc... that's what I need to make the game perfectly enjoyable for me in single player.

And Ghostrider the game is actually really well optimized, I'm pretty sure you can even play it on a Laptop if you turn some settings down. There are some settings that still aren't well optimized though, like the advanced graphic stuff. I do have the basic graphic settings maxed out, but even though my PC should be good enough to max the game out fully at 1440p I still have to keep advanced graphics turned off to maintain a constant v-synced 60fps. It seems these types of games always have issues when you jump in a car and drive around fast.

Also I almost forgot, something pretty important I accidentally realized while messing around the settings, is when you V-sync to Half, basically cap it at 30fps, it is literally console smooth this is the first game I've ever seen have a console smooth 30fps. For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about, basically there has always been a very noticeable difference in 30fps on PC compared to 30fps on Console, the consoles have always made it feel a lot smoother than it really is. Never before has there been a PC game I found to be playable at 30fps for me, maybe because it's mostly fast paced sports games I play on PC, but honestly GTA 5 would be the first, they really went balls deep in PC optimization for this game, they were right to delay it after all.

And those advanced graphic settings I spoke of, I don't really even notice a difference unless I look really close and far away, it's mostly just distance detail sliders. Here's a popular video just got put out that shows the various graphic effects so you can see what you're missing when you turn down some of these
