Important note
I’ll cover the official “Enhanced”/RTX-like features that come with GTA V updates via Steam/Epic. If you’re actually referring to a separate fan-made “Enhanced Edition” mod, tell me and I’ll switch to that workflow (and we can skip anything that could violate terms or piracy concerns).
A. You're installing the official GTA V with Enhanced features (Steam or Epic Games)
GPU: RTX 4060 (already excellent support for RT and DLSS)
Drivers: Update to the latest NVIDIA Game Ready drivers
Windows: Ensure you’re on a supported Windows version (Windows 10/11)
Storage: Ensure you have enough space for the base game plus optional textures/maps (roughly 100–150 GB free, depending on updates)
Install GTA V (via your platform)
Steam:
Open Steam > Library > GTA V
If you don’t own it yet, purchase/download
Right-click GTA V > Properties > Updates: set to “Always keep this game up to date”
Epic Games:
Open Epic Games Launcher > Library > GTA V
Ensure the launcher is up to date
Click Install or Launch if already installed
Enable Enhanced/RTX features in-game
Launch GTA V
Ray Tracing: Enable if your system shows the option (RTX features require compatible version and drivers)
DLSS/FSR: Enable DLSS (Quality/Performance) or FSR, depending on what you prefer for balance between image quality and FPS
Texture Quality, Shadow Quality, Reflections, etc.: Adjust to taste; RTX features may require higher textures
Display/Resolution:
Set your preferred resolution (e.g., 2560x1440 or 3840x2160 if you’re targeting 4K)
HDR: If you have an HDR monitor, enable it
Verify game files and updates
Steam:
Steam > Library > GTA V > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files
Epic Games:
In the Library, click the three dots under GTA V > Verify
Ensure you’re on the latest version that includes Enhanced visuals (look for notes in patch history)
Optional: Optional RTX-specific settings tweak
If you have DLSS:
In-game: DLSS Quality/Performance
Try Performance mode if you want smoother gameplay at higher internal resolution
If you prefer RT reflections or global illumination, enable those features as available, then adjust other graphical sliders to maintain a steady frame rate (target 60 FPS or higher if you’re aiming for 120 Hz monitors)
Performance tweaks for RTX 4060
Use a balance between RT features and DLSS:
RTX on + DLSS Quality: Often looks great and runs smoothly
If you experience stuttering, try DLSS Performance
NVIDIA Control Panel (optional):
Set Preferred refresh rate to “Highest available”
Texture filtering – Quality: High Quality
Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance
If you’re using mods or overlays (optional)
For the official Enhanced edition, mods aren’t required. If you plan to use any third-party mods, install carefully:
Backup: Create a full game backup
Tools: OpenIV, Script Hook V, ENB/Reshade (only with mods that support them)
Follow the mod’s installation instructions exactly
Keep games and mods isolated to avoid conflicts; disable mods if you encounter crashes
B. Common troubleshooting
Game won’t start after enabling RTX: Update GPU drivers, ensure Windows version is supported, and verify game files again
FPS drops with RT features: Enable DLSS/FSR, lower RT-heavy settings, or switch to a lower resolution
No RT options visible: Ensure you’re on the latest game patch that includes Enhanced visuals, and update drivers
C. Quick checklist
RTX 4060 drivers updated -> yes/no
Steam/Epic game files verified -> yes/no
In-game RTX features enabled -> yes/no
DLSS/FSR configured -> yes/no
Stable frame rate target achieved (60 FPS+ for most setups) -> yes/no
