GTAV 8xMSAA GTX980Ti

[Ololezhka]

I've recently built a new machine and plugged in the beautiful MSI gtx980ti, overclocked my 5820k to 4.3Ghz and went on to play GTAV. I was very disappointed to find out that this 6GB card cannot handle this game at all ULTRA + 8xMSAA, I get fps drops from 60 to 35 and am really not happy with it. I know I might be picky here, but I spent a ton of money on this card and would expect Tito handle everything for the next year at least. Please tell me guys if it's the card problem that it is weak for GTAV or it's a software (optimisation) problem?

I've read GTAV can utilize more then 6gb of vram on max settings. Your hopes are probably a bit to high for one video card.

Source please?

Me. I have the same card and I have GTA5 and play at 1080p on max settings. Mine runs a bit better then 35 t 60 fps. That's attributable to the added ram and overclocked processor.

GTA 5 does not solely run on the GPU. Overclocking the CPU can have measurable impacts on the performance of the game. He's running stock clocks.

Oh my apologizes. Early morning. I mixed your thread up with a similar thread I was replying in.

GTA V is well optimized but with the large open world, and all that Anitalising...
Ill try to find that thread where folks were discussing gta5 utilizing over 6gb of vram.

Here is a good thread that speaks in depth about GTA V and all of its amazing graphical power. They speak about how weather changes can have a 15% impact on FPS alone. They go into detail how at 1080p the game can utilize up to 4gb's of vram, and can exceed that at times.

The game is a tank.

You said that your gpu goes to 75c or 100c? I have gta v and My max usage while playing it is 7,9gb with gtx 960 so with your 980ti it should be more
