GTA V frequently experiences crashes during the basic setup.
GTA V frequently experiences crashes during the basic setup.
I purchased and installed GTA V via the Rockstar launcher. It would launch briefly, then shut down or greet me with a BSOD. After adjusting the graphics settings to normal, the issue persists. My system specs are: AMD Ryzen 5 2600, Gigabyte Radeon RX580, 12GB RAM (8GB HyperX Furry, 4GB ADATA XPG), Biostar B450MHP motherboard, 480GB ADATA SSD, Corsair VS 550W PSU.

Several factors might be involved here. A bad GPU, faulty RAM (especially with an 8+4 configuration) and driver problems could be at play. The PSU might also be an issue, possibly overheating. I’d start by checking the PSU, GPU and overheating first. Then try a tougher game to see if similar problems appear.
Hey, I resolved the issue—my CPU was overheating because the thermal paste had worn out.
