When she’s not working, you can probably find her watching horror movies or playing an Assassin’s Creed game and getting distracted by Photo Mode. 

So if you've been living under a rock for the last week or so, GTA 5 is finally out on PC and it’s looking just grand. Especially when cranked up to glorious 4K.

If your PC doesn't have two GTX 780 TI’s like YouTube user taltigolt then fear not, an array of videos shows off what's in store at ultra high settings.

See below for some detailed Los Santos action and a demo of the new Director Mode, complete with alien. Turn up the resolution and consider bankrupting yourself for a couple of new graphics cards.
