Hey! Your GTX 970 seems to be struggling with high memory usage. You mentioned lowering settings and turning off filters, which helped a bit. The GPU is using around 35% and the temperature is near 45°C. It’s interesting you noticed better performance on a GTX 960 with minimal settings. Since your monitor is 1080p and you’re not using advanced settings, try reducing the frame buffer size to 2GB as suggested. Also, check if enabling higher memory usage in the game options could help. Let me know what you try next!
Running on an MSI 970 single with an i7 processor, there were no issues at 1440p when advanced settings were disabled and MSAA was turned off.
I've managed to play GTA on my 970 at full settings with a max of 1080 and around 35fps. I reduced the settings to keep it steady at 60+ and kept GPU usage around 98% most of the time, only exceeding 3.5GB a few times. It runs smoothly without stuttering when it does. All advanced options are turned off. What performance do you see?
I don’t have 970, which means my payment isn’t sufficient for a higher amount. I’m here to assist you.
You're using an i5 4460 with a GTX 970 at full settings, no VRAM issues. Stuttering occurred during driving, but it stopped after disabling extended shadows.
Thanks! I'll check my settings more closely. At first, everything seemed fine. I enabled long shadows for the second time. It started to stutter, so I turned it off again. Could be a bug that keeps them on. I'll experiment with the switch. Thanks to everyone!
VRAM speed drops when hitting 3.5GB, consider staying under that limit sadly D.
