Solution
Yea, i could say that your old cpu bottleneck 750ti a bit. And no, you should not get 740. In my opinion, you should upgrade your cpu too, at least core 2 quad will be fine. You can still play most of games with 750ti, but i doubt you can run this gpu without any bottlenecking (try to use 4-Core cpu).

GTA5 minimum spec calls for a quad-core Q6600.

You have a dual-core, so I'm not sure how well that will work.

As for the GPU, understand there's no exact cutoff because the amount the CPU bottlenecks varies by the game quite a bit. Obviously a GTX1080 is pointless, but might as well get a GTX750Ti when you look at the pricing of cards.

This Youtube video suggests it will work, though I suspect you'll get severe stutter at times:

(and don't expect "very high" settings, but lower settings in GTA 5 still look pretty good. Turn off VSYNC then play with settings and attempt to get over 30FPS)
 


GTA V is a CPU intensive game, you will not be playing it at very high settings with that CPU.

That said, you should be able to run other games on high at 720p although I would recommend lowering down to medium for some games for a solid 60 fps.
