A French magazine claims the PC version has a few areas whose architecture was improved, so the graphics upgrade goes beyond things like draw distance and higher res textures.
Quote:
"The graphic overhaul doesn't stop at just textures or LOD, cause the studio has totally redone(?) the open world by changing radically some places, to magnify them thanks to the superior calcul power. For example the pool from the Playboy mansion, who was a simple rectangle become a river with current(flow?) and a cave. In the same way, many other places in Los Santos have been reworked to give a more immersive render."
En effet, le jeu tourne parfaitement du moment que vous êtes en possession d'un Intel Core 2 Duo et d'une carte graphique NVIDIA 9800GT. Bef, du matériel qui ne date pas juste d'hier ! Et pour ceux qui possèdent la configuration recommandée (Intel i5 3470 et GTX 660), le titre risque de faire des étincelles côté graphismes. Le champ de vision (qui avait été doublé entre les versions PS3 / Xbox 360 et les moutures next gen') a été considérablement agrandi, au point que lors d'un saut en parachute par temps clair, il est possible de voir l'intégralité de la carte depuis les airs, sans un pet d'aliasing. D'ailleurs, votre chute libre vous permettra de constater une fluidité sans faille ainsi qu'une vitesse de chargement très élevée des éléments, ce qui permet de réduire considérablement le clipping. Evidemment, les textures et les effets ne sont pas en reste puisque Rockstar North a su tirer parti de la puissance des cartes graphiques modernes pour améliorer ses textures et remanier presque complètement le système d'éclairage et de diffraction lumineuse. On se rend d'ailleurs compte du pas de géant réalisé dans ce domaine lorsqu'on plonge à grande profondeur et qu'on voit les fonds marins éclairés avec la torche du personnage.

the game works flawlessly even with a simple Core 2 Duo and 9800GT, and if you are lucky enough to own the recommended rig (Intel i5 3470 et GTX 660), truly shines.
FOV has been considerably increased, to the point you can see the whole map when parachuting and, during your fall you will witness perfectly smooth gameplay and very fast loading of all the elements in the game.
Of course, textures and effects are on par, since Rockstar was able to use every features of modern graphic cards to enhance the textures and remake almost entirely the lightning system.
You can see the tremendous work done when diving into the sea, watching the ocean floor illuminated with the character's torch.
I'll see if there are more interesting details woth to be translated
Sounds like they are lying for clickbait. I have a hard time believing that a Core 2 Duo runs this flawlessly when the PS4 version is CPU bound at heavy traffic.

Except that a Core2 Duo is more efficient and powerful, per clock, than the laptop-esque low-power AMD processor inside the PS4? Besides, they sure didn't mention the settings... heh... "lowest of low" for a 720p30 experience perhaps?

Dont you have oil-powered awesome-sauce super computers in Norway??

Uhhhhh..... possibly? I'm not sure what that has to do with the relative performance of other processors, but hey
(<3 my trust 2500k)
Still on mine here, hoping it at 4.2ghz and a 7870 ghz edition runs it fairly well at 1920x1200

Well shit. I guess I will do just fine with my i7-3820 and GTX 680. Had just about written the damn thing off. Good on you R* if this news proves true.

I wish I could push mine harder but any higher than 4Ghz gives random 0x124 STOPs and after three years of trying to troubleshoot and repair, I just gave up. 4Ghz it is. I'll get an i7-2600K at some point in the future and maybe that will handle better =)
