I have exactly the same problem as the user described on the above link. Game is literally unplayable with 2-3 FPS max in game. All the other games work completely fine without any problems. I tried re-installing the game, drivers, tried both overclocking and downclocking CPU and GPU, almost everything..

Probably worth mentioning that I used to play this game with 60FPS almost all maxed out like a month ago. I didn't change anything software or hardware related since then so that shouldn't be an issue.

Specifications:
FX-8350 4.0 GHz
R9 290 PCS+ 4GB VRAM
8GB RAM
Windows 10

Anyone else has an idea for this problem? It's driving me mad..

Maybe look into the GTA5 directory and reinstall the game's DirectX it won't override anything of later version but might add older run times your system might be missing for GTA5.

Look in the Directx folder and run DXSetup.exe. Theres quite a few files in there so click type bring DXSetup application to top of order.

Just tried what you said and unfortunately this didn't have any effect in-game..
