Hi, your GTA V issues after switching GPUs seem tricky. The GPU isn’t overheating, and you’re not seeing any errors—just freezing for a short time before crashing. This could be related to driver conflicts, resource mismatches, or background processes. Try updating your GPU drivers, checking for system updates, and ensuring no other games are using excessive resources. If the problem persists, consider disabling third-party extensions temporarily.

No, I didn't verify that step. You should ensure all Nvidia drivers are removed before installing the new graphics card.

I'm on the AMD side, but it's possible you'll need to update or reset the GPU drivers.

After I set it up, I updated the system and chose a clean installation.

Consider installing DDU, removing all Nvidia-related files, and then reinstalling GeForce Experience along with the drivers fresh. If the game continues to crash without displaying any errors, it’s likely the GPU driver is failing.

I might face a CPU limitation when paired with a brand new high-end card versus an older i7.

The bottleneck won't lead to a crash, but it may result in poor performance.

Are you kidding me? How can the i7-4771 cause such an issue? It's a strong CPU, not that outdated, and if others with older i5 or AMD chips work fine, why would this specific card struggle?

It may cause issues if it's operating at a reduced speed.
