GTA V PC Performance Thread

Running great on 3570k / 970 at 1440p. Surprised it defaults the distance sliders so high, figured they'd be the FPS killer.

There is something...off about some cinematics. There seems to be some judder no matter the framerate and even on Gsync. Guessing it's an engine thing or just the way they are built.

I can't believe this just happened.

Not really a big deal, but the download from Microsoft kept flucuaitng down into the KB/s at points, driving my blood pressure through the roof.

In hindsight, it's probably faster for you to run the the store and get another (bigger?) SSD.

Mine is stuttering so badly during the opening mission that I can't stand to play it.

3570K@4.4
G1 970 (not overclocked)
8GB Samsung RAM
Installed to my 1TB HD (SSD is only 120GB with ~16GB left)

Using the new drivers (clean install using GeForce Experience) and using the optimized settings via GeForce Experience. Have in-game refresh rate at 144hz (VG248QE monitor) with vsync off.

Should I have done a clean install using DDU instead of GFE?

For those crashing, are you aware of the user account bug thats going around? I just know if you have special characters in your windows user account name it fucks things up. Its on the steam page.

Yeah, I know of it. Account name is "Alo" so it shouldn't be an issue.

This is a total pain

Everything maxed, FXAA On, 2xMSAA, No TXAA, Reflection MSAAx4 @1080p runs like this [notice FRAPS number on top right corner]:
PICTURES

Smooth, with no stutter.

Loading times, also, are far better than PS4 version [mechanical HDD]

Beautiful port.

Honestly I can't see the graphical improvement, aside from the framerate upgrade.

I didn't buy the game yet, but I was curious; could I get 60fps at 1080p on these settings?

- i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz
- GTX 580
- 16GB

I would like to hit those settings with the core game stuff at max, save for AA. I might be asking for a lot, no? ;A;

If I can't, I don't think I'll be buying it yet.

Looks and plays fucking fantastically.... Very impressed. Running 1080p, 4x MSAA, mix of high and very high. It's always 60 FPS.

Hardware is a GTX780 and 2500k, 8GB RAM.

All settings maxed, except reflections on normal, view distance maxed in both options and some of the other advanced options on.

60-90FPS while driving around the city, up to 100-144FPS indoors.

Same specs except I have a 6 core 5930k at 4.4 and my DDR4 is 3000mhz.

I'm watching you regarding the perf. Then I might bite the bullet. For the third time.

Running benchmarks in-game.

Settings -

1920*1080
MSAA x2
Population Density and Variety full
Distance Scaling full
Texture Quality Very High
Shader Quality Very High
Shadow Quality Normal
Reflection Quality Very High
Reflection MSAA x2
Water Quality Very High
Particles Quality Very High
Grass Quality High
Soft Shadows Soft
Post FX Very High
Motion Blur Strength none
In-Game Depth of Field Effects On
Anisotropic Filtering x16
Ambient Occlusion High
Tessellation High

Video Memory 2425/3072

Results -

Fairly consistent mid to high 50's, occasionally touching 60. Often dipping down into the 40's - lowest was the high 30's. I'm turning down particles and shader quality a tad. FXAA is not very good and even with MSAA the game is full of jaggies.

I played the first mission, saved, did the benchmarks and left. Trying to get back in took a while - first RSC launched then quit on loading, then several times after that told me there was a Steam error. I kept trying and now I'm back in. I haven't crashed yet, but I did see some graphics corruption during one of the benchmarks. Turned my graphics fan speed up to full, then went back in. Trying new settings now.

3x680GTX (2 gb)

Normal textures shows 4500MB/6000MB used and high textures says 6300/6000 MB used but there is no slowdowns at all driving around the city. Locked 60 fps. Fantastic port.

Note: The game multiplies memory amount in SLI setups, both in used and available.


Same performance at 2880x1620. Sooo good.

Sadly, fraps screenshots work at 1080p but crashes the game at 1620p.

Seems like I'm one of the few with crashing :( I see some crash on launch but I get into the game and get to play about 5-10 min before it locks up and crash to desktop. Last crash was even better. Crashed to user login in win 8.1 lol.

I have a fairly clean system. Just reinstalled about a month ago.

i5 2500k @ 4.2
970
8gigs ram
Win 8.1

I have nothing running but my steelseries engine for the mouse, steam (obviously) and the game. Did a clean driver install with no geforce experience to see if that would help. It didn't. Ram usage seems ok. Only about 4gigs used.

Dunno :(

Played through the intro and the game is locked @ 59fps for me. Everything is maxed out besides MSAA. The game asks for over 8GB vram though, even though the reported vram usage is only 5.5GB.

Sorry if you have posted it earlier, but what's your config? I'm guessing TitanX 2xSLI?

You might want to check your monitor setup if it's locking to 59fps.

I'm getting 50 to 75 percent usage on my task monitor. Is that safe for my PC? Speccy says the hottest my graphics card has gotten was 60c.

Mostly everything is on normal. The only time the usage goes up is when I boost the resolution, because I'm sitting at a gross 1024x720 or whatever it is.

GPU usage? More than fine. No reason to not have it using all of it really. 60c is fine temp wise. Can probably crank up some settings if it's only hitting 50 percent.

It's completely fine.
 
Definitely locking it at 30 for maximum eye candy. I am playing it with a controller on my TV and I am used to 30fps GTAV. A GTX970 is not capable of a locked 60 in this game with maxed out settings unfortunately. Actually not even close. So glad that I can finally turn off that disgusting FXAA from the console versions.

With everything maxed 2xMSAA at 1080p it's dropping down to around 40-50 FPS at times, gonna have to lower some settings I think. GTX980 here. 60 feels way too good to opt for locking at 30 instead.

Anyone else getting an option for only 59hz? I can't put it to 60 for some reason, my monitor is set to 60 obviously.

Is that worthless bunch of particles on the bottom right side of the screen meant to be the in-game map? Because I'm not seeing a map. Have yet to try to beta Catalyst driver, though.
 
It's incredibly weird playing GTA Online without a shitty framerate, jaggies everywhere and insanely long load times.

Also for some reason, the refresh rate will sometimes be set to 59Hz, and I have to set it back to 60. Probably a bug with alt-tab.
