I'm curious if I can run GTA V directly from my 256GB USB 3.2 flash drive. I just purchased the game for this purpose, but I'm unsure about its performance. Will it run smoothly without overheating, or should I be concerned about any potential issues? Any insights would be appreciated!

Do you have USB 3.2 ports on your computer? Also, make sure your system meets the game's requirements. If everything looks good, you might be okay!

You might as well give it a shot since you already bought the game! Just plug it in and see how it goes.

Running it off a USB drive is possible, but be careful. USB drives often use lower quality memory, making them more prone to data corruption compared to SSDs or HDDs. Just keep that in mind!
