As we edge closer to the game's May 18th launch, Rockstar have trickled out another batch of screenshots from the technically-superior PC version of the game. However, this time we have a little more substance -- the desktop system requirements.
In addition to the usual higher resolutions and potential framerates, PC gamers can look forward to DirectX 11 support that includes "tessellation, as well as a number of additional advanced graphics options".
A blog post on the official

Looks like my aging PC will still be able to handle this, sweet.

Lets face it, no PC screen shot makes this game look like a heavy hitter in the graphics department.
As for PC having extra features. I bet they'll basically make no difference but are there and be unnoticeable.Looking at the screenshots, Higher Resolution textures, seems it'll be randomly applied. Max's shirt has higher resolution textures, but that brick wall looks horrible ect.

and is it just me, or is the basic requirements for AMD higher than the Intel?

PC features will probably be mouse support, changeable graphics settings and keyboard rebinding.
