Gta V vs The witcher 3 performance.

[arthurjoshua]

Can anybody help solve why I can't seem to run Gta V 100% smooth all the time (a lot of stuttering and freezing) with some settings set to high while I can play the witcher 3 very smoothly also with some settings in high. I have a gtx 970, amd a8 6600k, and 4gb of ram. I know my cpu is a bottleneck, but how come i can run witcher 3 way more smooth than I can run gta v? when I checked the minimum requirements, it's witcher 3 that needs a better processor than gta v. Any ideas?

gtav is very badly optimized for pc

check for any patches they released to try to improve it

GTA-V is a 'bear' to optimize and run smoothly on any setup

For gta V your cpu and ram are inadequate, especially the ram. You want atleast 8gb of ram for gta V.
