Hello guys, i am having massive fps drops at night from 19:00 until 06:00 (in the game) in gta 5. My pc specs are:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200g.
GPU: ASUS Dual Rx 580 O-4G 4gigs.
MOTHERBOARD: Biostar a320mh.
RAM: 2x4gb 2666mhz.
So basically i am playing everything on max at 1080p except the water at normal and shadows on high and grass on high vsync off. When 19:00 comes when i look at the city my fps drops as low as 40 fps, but in the daytime my fps never goes below 70. Does anyone else has this problem and does anyone has a solution to this problem i really like the game and want to enjoy it but this is really a pain in the but....
 
Solution
So, the gpu stays to 100%, if the cpu stays 40% to 80%s you are being GPU bottlenecking, but i check if it affects to me night/day to fps. Im running R5 3600, so we could see if something changes.

It's kinda strange if the usage of the cpu and gpu stay the same and have those drops. So could be lack of CPU power? GTAV is pretty heavy on CPUs and could be that. Check if it all low do some change. If it don't change you are getting CPU bottleneck.
What do you think about it? He may be bottleneck by the gpu or the cpu at some point. @Fix_that_Glitch
Maybe, but my gpu is staying at 100% and the cpu isn't always at 100% almost never

For sure, it's a good entry level pc to gaming on pc. Don't be too overkill on the system to 1080p, it could make have same or worse stutters than your current system.

Well i won't, planing something like ryzen 7 3700x or intel i7 9700k and rtx 2070 super amd 16gb ram, but planing now is worthless who knows what prices and tech is gonna be there when i bulid my second gaming pc
