Has anyone else seen a performance hit in GTA V latest patch

Go to solution Solved by Davehaslanded,

Ok just done a clean install of Nvidia's latest driver, and that appears to have fixed the issue. Very bizarre. I love PC gaming, but its hard to argue with some of my friends when they say that console gaming can be simpler. PCs have a tendancy to go off the deep end sometimes and do their own thing. lol

I have a i5 4670 and a GTX980, playing on a 4k screen. Up until the latest patch (ill gotten gains, i got a steady 30-40 fps) but i've just started the game, post patch, and my game is running at 11fps. Nothing else has changed. I'm so confused.

If you have high resolution shadows enabled, disable them. They kill my 970.

Maybe they fixed ambient occlusion, before, AO didn't work even if you enabled it in the settings, try disabling it and see if you get similar performance as before.

I've not got it on. Something is very wrong though. The game just chucked a warning at me about going over my GPUs Vram, but ive turned the graphics right down to the point im barely over 2GB and my card had 4GB. Might try doing a verify

 

Update: GPU core clock isnt going about 400mhz. This is weird. Gonna try a Driver refresh
