I have been playing GTA V on my desktop without performance issues since 2015, my specs were:
i7 2600k @ 4.6ghz
16gb RAM
7200rpm HD
GTX 970 SC
With the specs above, I was able to play just fine @ 1080p around 60fps
Recently I bought a new GPU, going from the GTX 970 SC to a GTX 1070ti SC
Yesterday I booted GTA V for the first time since the GPU upgrade, and for my surprise, the performance was really bad.
I'll list the issues:
1. Start menu/main menu abysmal performance
Launching the game, I was granted with a very stuttery menu, steam was saying that it was around 35fps, but moving my mouse felt more like 10fps
Opening nVidia inspector I noticed that my GPU was at 100% usage on the menu
2. Bad ingame performance
Even at 1080p and medium settings, I wasn't able to reach 60fps at GTA online, I tried lowering to 800x600 at 0,5 frame scalling, and was still below 80fps
3. Constant micro stutters + eventual macro stutters
The game is stuttering really bad all the time, even walking around inside a garage, the game still stutters, and trying to drive around town was a pain with eventual hangs that could last almost 1 second
Some aditional information:
After installing the 1070ti, I updated the driver to version 399.24 doing a clean installation.
I already used steam to verify integrity and no issue was found
I know that usually stutters in GTA are caused by slow HD, but I'm using the same HD that worked just fine before the GPU upgrade, and I even moved the game folder to a newer HD just to test, but had the same issues
Does anyone knows what could be the issue, and how to fix it?
