Hey, your setup seems solid but you're hitting a ceiling. With those specs, 60 FPS in fullscreen at 1080p should be possible with medium settings, especially if you tweak distance scaling and other parameters. If you're still struggling, try lowering distance scaling or adjusting texture quality slightly. You might also consider updating drivers or checking for any recent patches that could help.
Verify MSI afterburner settings to determine if CPU constraints exist; if so, consider boosting the FX6300's performance.
varies based on what processes are active in the background during your gameplay.
Playing a demanding CPU game on a low-power processor with a slow GPU driver works well.
I'm not sure if this connects, but I had to halt play because I used to get consistently solid performance (60-90 FPS when synced). Then one day it just began dropping to mid 50s even though no adjustments were made. I even tried reducing graphics settings, but it didn't help. I thought Rockstar had finally damaged it like they did with GTA IV, except here the issue seems tied to the disk version—there was an easy way to go back to a stable patch, but now it's not so simple.
I’d try to run it at its maximum while keeping temperatures under control and stability in check. GTA5 is quite demanding on the CPU, and pairing it with a GPU that has higher CPU usage only makes things worse. Overclocking could help slightly, though I’m not sure how much improvement you’d see—it might make a small difference if the CPU is the main bottleneck.
