FiveM is the most popular multiplayer modification for GTA V and is primarily used for roleplay servers. With your own server, you decide the rules and gameplay.
System Requirements
- RAM: Minimum 4 GB for a small server. 8-16 GB for serious RP servers with many resources.
- CPU: At least 2 cores, 4+ recommended for larger servers.
- Storage: 5-20 GB depending on resources and scripts.
Framework: ESX vs. QBCore
The two most popular frameworks for FiveM RP servers:
- ESX (es_extended): The oldest and most widespread framework. Huge amounts of free resources available.
- QBCore: Newer, more optimized, and better structured. Growing rapidly in popularity.
For new servers, we recommend QBCore for better performance and more modern code.
