Regardless if you’re re-installing on Steam Deck, downloading at the dorm, or aiming for Role-Play servers, this guide includes every angle.

Curious about Linux? Proton 8.0-3 boots straight if you set DXVK and bind Documents folder as read-write. Optional micro-transactions is easiest via the launcher—codes arrive by email within seconds. Mind your ISP cap: GTA V base download sits around ~100 GB plus Day-One patch of 2–4 GB. Opt for downloads while you sleep to avoid throttling. NoPixel dreams? Download separate data cache (~2–3 GB) right after base game verifies. Laptop throttling? Lock FPS to 90 via RTSS—reduces stutter during long mission grinds. Forgot Social Club password? Use the support portal; allow 24-h validation for account integrity.

One last note: activate MFA to prevent credential theft immediately after buying Shark Cards.
