Just now, Sebz said: What I'll say about that is: Check your storage utilization via task manager, see if it's peaking out on read (not write). It could be lagging behind as far as rendering in the loads of assets GTA V has. I can say without a doubt that when I purchased a new HDD (Mine was old at the time) my performance on several games increased. Even since then, I've purchased a solid state drive and had had no stuttering issues in any games, other than perhaps micro stutters which are hardly noticeable. how do u suggest i do that? ive got honestly no clue when it comes to hardware like that. i got this drive (F:) total of 900 GB and i only used 500 GB so far in it, it says 20 GB left. thats fucked up i feel like something is definitely wrong with my HDD Link to comment
Sebz Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Well you've got pagefile and hiberfil on your drives likely taking up space that isn't shown as available. Plus you've got to account for your windows (or whichever OS you're running) distribution. It takes up a considerable amount of your drive automatically. If I were in your shoes, I would run a thorough disk defragmentation (as it's an HDD) and on top of that I'd run a program such as ccleaner to get rid of useless files that are filling your drive. Another recommended program that is on every computer I own is WinDirStat. It'll check your entire drive for files and present them graphically so you can see what's eating up all your space and delete it as you feel necessary. Edited March 29, 2020 by Sebz Link to comment

Oh! I didn't realize you had an SSD as well. If you can afford the space I'd recommend moving GTA V over to the SSD. But regardless try what I mentioned above and let me know how it goes.

yahearmeorwhat_ Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I think it's the CPU, monitor your CPU and GPU temps while playing the game, is this happening on any other games? I think your CPU is thermal throttling. Link to comment

pateuvasiliu Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Run this with MSI Afterburner or another CPU/GPU usage tool. The causes could be many. My 2c is that your CPU is at 100% ( CPU bottleneck ) but we can't know more without seeing those numbers. GTAW is pretty CPU intensive. My CPU sits at 61C in RDR2 but 65C in GTAW.

Bash Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Thread inactive for over 30 Days, so I assume the issue was resolved.. Please let us know if you have any further issues! Locking and Archiving Link to comment
