Steel Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Hello guys. I have been experiencing some insane FPS drops and lag on GTA.WORLD. The game even freezes for a second or two sometimes. GTA V story runs smooth 65-80FPS, Online goes at 40-50FPS with some minor freezing here and there. One solution I tried solved my draw distance on GTA V (in general) problem, but the FPS stuff is still there. I numbed down my game as much as possible, even the resolution is at 720p. Other, even newer and more resource-heavy titles run way better without no issues. I tend to blame the "great" Rockstar PC optimization, but I am still looking for any possible solution. My computer is a laptop, here are its specs: - Intel Core i5 7th-gen - Nvidia GeForce 1050 - 8GB of RAM - 1TB HDD I am not looking to improve on my hardware just for one game, as the laptop serves me well on other games and work purposes. I'd like to know if there are any possible software or other solutions. I don't really even need high FPS, just stable 25-30FPS with no drops would be enough. Thank you.

joaoivis Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Buy a SSD. Install your OS and GTA V on it, only way to fix it. I have the same spec as you and had to upgrade to make it stop. 1 Link to comment
Jorgensen Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 RageMP/GTA V is not optimised enough to run on a HDD. It needs to be on an SSD. 1 Link to comment
Steel Posted December 11, 2021 Author Share Posted December 11, 2021 Oh, okay, I guess I'll arrange myself an SSD. They don't seem that expensive. Is it worthwile to throw in an another 8GB of RAM too? Link to comment
