Solution
The drawing distance (1-10) maxed at 10 and 8x MSAA are the heaviest hitters, go down to 4x MSAA and 5 out of 10 drawing distance (in advanced settings). I just went back and forth on the two in my GTA5 and couldn't see a difference excluding FPS doubling.

Also the combo of Long Shadows (advanced settings) and Very High Shadows make a very taxing combined shadow rendering, turn Long Shadows off and Shadows to High instead of Very High if you need more FPS.

Your RAM could also be causing some slight FPS lag when the game needs to load things quickly (driving/flying etc.). But before buying new hardware i would recommend trying the tips @JUICEhunter mentioned. Also lower the Population setting, thats an FPS eater too.
