Click the link below and write all your system specs so that it can calculate the speed of the processor and GPU because writing the minimum requirements will confuse some of the users as i5 3450f is not better than i3 9100f but they might think i5 is all the way better than i3.

So there are two ways to download GTA 5
- From a verified site (no risk)
- From an unverified site (chance of risk)
The difference between a verified site and an unverified site is not just about the risk of malware and trojans but an unverified site can let you download GTA 5 for free but there is some chance of getting banned by the respective company. Let's know in detail about how to download GTA 5
From Where Can I Download GTA 5?
It depends on whether you wanted to download it for free or by paying for it.
If you want GTA 5 for free with just story mode:
To download GTA 5 for free, you must be AWARE that you won't get to play GTA Online in GTA 5.
The only thing you can get is the offline story mode. You can get GTA 5 for free from an unverified site such as xatab repacks (a Russian site).
NOTE: There are tons of sites available in the name of xatab repacks so make sure you choose the one with a Russian title. Fitgirl repacks also provide games for free.
But remember all the free games which are actually paid in the verified sites are not legit. But anyway, you can keep it as temporary on your PC or for a short period.
If you wish to just play the story mode of GTA 5, download it for free (risk of getting malicious software but I didn't face any malware after downloading from xatab repacks)
If you want GTA 5 with story mode as well as online features:
The only option here is to pay and buy the game from any verified site like steam, origin, epic games or the rockstar itself.
There is no risk of getting any malicious software from these types of verified sites. If you download GTA 5 from any of the above-verified sites, you'll get the online multiplayer features and are kinda safer than downloading it for free from an unverified site.
You'll have to pay digitally and get the game on your account name which you have signed in to that site and make sure you don't forget the user ID and password of that site where you got the game because it will be helpful for you in future while shifting to a new PC.
Conclusion
These are the way to download GTA 5. The verified one is better in all respect but still one doesn't really wanna spend money just to play the story or offline mode. GTA 5 has a great storyline and doing so is exciting and adventurous. If you get GTA 5 by paying via a trusted site, you could get to experience one of the best online features in GTA 5.
Malware is not an issue if you have a good antivirus installed on your pc. After all, enjoy the game...
