Question GTA 5 is only running at around 50-70 fps with the GTX 1660 Ti

[C1rm0ska]

Hello!
I have a GTX 1660 Ti and whenever I'm playing GTA 5 online, I only get around 50-70 fps.
My friend with a GTX 1050 Ti is getting 100+ fps, so I don't understand this anymore.
The GPU is hardly used by the game

I'm assuming you installed this game on the Samsung SSD and not the Seagate drive right?

The seagate drive, but I don't think it's the problem.
The game always was on the Seagate drive even with the older GPU

Should I try it out with the SSD?

Have vsync set to application control in NvidiaCP if not already. Then trial vsync in gta5, to on and also try half. Is it smoother?

Since playing it long ago, i ran the game with vsync to half, this was on 2600k 4.5ghz, 16gb, ssd, 1080ti. Without vsync the game was pretty smooth but had kinda like rubber banding effect depending where i looked. Think it was more prevalent inside buildings but had it while driving. Hard to explain, it was awhile ago, vsync stopped that for me. If by chance you're experiencing the same.

It's always like this, but I'll try what you just said! I'll tell you in a few hours

Yeah, it's still the same.

Get your friend over with his pc and have a lan session. In the meantime both have a look.

We aren't friends anymore. I know a person, who I could do this with, but he doesn't have a GPU, so yeah.

Here's a wacky idea. Put everything to max, antialiasing, view distance, everything including grass. Play, see how it goes. Then dial things a little setting by setting starting with grass.

And disable full screen optimisation under compatibility of gta5.exe.

I have pretty much tried every setting, normal, high, very high, ultra, but the fps stays the same, both on the minimum settings and the maximum settings (EDIT: Graphics of course looks better)

Also tried to disable full screen optimisation, but no luck.

fps stays the same

you've said that multiple times and finding that hard to believe. Ultra is pretty grilling man and for you not to see any different in fps means something else is going on. What that is i don't know but i can wonder.

Going through the whole thread again im hoping you're being honest and running a legitimate copy of gta5.

I'm completely honest.
I have the game from Epic Games, but I also have the game on steam, but when I was younger, I made myself banned.
When I go to grassy places with grass quality maxed out, the fps goes down a bit.
I've tested the game in single player mode and the GPU usage is always at 95-100% and in online, it's only about 30-45%

Online has always been buggy though. Long as SP plays nice then all you can do is blame the game.
