Is Turning On Ray Tracing in GTA 5 Enhanced Worth It?
If you value realism and high-quality graphics, then enabling Ray Tracing is worth it. However, you do need a graphics card that can support this feature. Fortunately, Rockstar Games announced the minimum and recommended system requirements to run the game. You can check it out and see if your PC can handle high-quality graphics.
On the other hand, if your PC only meets the minimum system requirements, enabling Ray Tracing is not recommended. Doing so may lead to severe graphical and performance issues. It might also even potentially cause damage to your system if you push it beyond its limits. However, even without Ray Tracing, the game still looks visually impressive, especially for a title that’s been around for nearly a decade. You don’t necessarily need Ray Tracing to be immersed in the open world of GTA 5.
