[SOLVED] Low FPS at GTA V, what should i upgrade?

[Filaa]

Hi, I have a 1050ti, i5 4570 and 16GB of ram. Lately i have been playing GTA and my fps is quite bad. I've been thinking about buying an i7 4770 but i am not sure if it will boost my fps. Should i upgrade my CPU or my GPU after all?

Ya'll are missing some things.
Story mode is fine because minimums for gta V is a 4c/4t. Online introduces high amounts of Ai, you get all that extra info like nameplates and such, a 4770 would be an improvement there, to what extent is questionable. Depends on the Tailored settings Op uses, don't just use presets like 'High' which also set higher cpu bound settings such as viewing distance, grass detail etc.

But. The 4th gen boards use ddr3, so that means new ram on top of new board and cpu, can't reuse anything but the drives and gpu.

An r3 3300x with pbo enabled knocks boots with higher grade intel in some titles. Going Intel again isn't worth it for the price.

Hmmm I did not know about pbo 3300x vs 10400F. In that case maybe that would be better?

I just watched a video some guy has a 1050ti and an i5 4590 which is not that much better than 4570. He has around 70 fps and his GPU usage is higher than mine. My cpu usage is around 70% and my gpu is at around 50%.

It also depends on settings. Were they the exact same? And in the same place?

4770 would definitely have better performance than the 4590

The settings were exact same.

Doubtful they were. There's global settings, in-game settings, windows settings etc, all of which add upto considerably different performance, even on identical pc's.

In nvidia control panel, can set pre-rendered 3d buffer to 1 instead of 3 (default). Grass details to low, orient for performance not quality.

In Windows disable Xbox everything and game bar helpers and set background tasks as no-run when in full screen mode.

In game, set details to high, but drop viewing distance to low, lighting affects to low, anything spatial or cloud to low, turn off name tags, turn off any floating damage or data.

Goto motherboard manufacturers website and make sure you have the Last available updated drivers for chipset, audio, Lan etc.
