GTA 5 stuttering

[Sebastian riley]

I currently have an i3-6100, 6 GB of DDR3 ram, and a GTX 1050ti SC. I am getting massive stuttering while driving, and its really frustrating me. I had watched Youtube videos about this combo and they never experienced this kind of stuttering. My RAM is dual channel, for those who are wondering. 

 

Does anyone know what could be the problem here? I have tried reinstalling the game twice (which was horrible due to download speed), and I have reinstalled my drivers for my GPU. 

 

PS. Sorry if this isnt in the correct forum.

massive stuttering while driving

While driving?

While driving?

Yes, while driving, and only when im driving. I am roam around the city just fine, but once I get into a vehicle of some sort, I instantly start to stutter horribly.

Never mind, I didn't check the title, didn't understand what driving you meant.

What are your CPU/GPU load percentages while gaming?

CPU and GPU are usually around 85-99 %. When I am driving however, they bump up to being 99% for both.

Id say a cpu bottleneck or a ram limitation. Your cpu should never hit 99% while playing a game.

Correct, but there are ample amount of people that have made videos about this exact combo, and they get 0 stuttering while driving.

hmmm that is strange, your drivers are all up to date?

Check the auto background scan for music is switched off. That can cause stuttering

Do you have geforce experience installed? If so uninstall it or turn off instant replay.

Surprisingly, it got worse. Alot worse. Immediately when I start driving its unplayable, whereas before it took a bit to start stuttering.

 

EDIT: I completely uninstalled GFE

Do you have any of the advanced graphics settings turned on? Mainly extended distance scaling? If so, turn that off/down.
Here's a link to re-download geforce experience now we know it's not that. http://www.geforce.com/geforce-experience/download

It's in the setting menu, under the audio tab

I get this issue occasionally if I Alt-Tab out of the game for a second and come back. It usually works itself out in about 30 seconds but sometimes I have to restart the game.

So, none of these solutions have worked so far, sadly.

Than just try turning settings on and off. That's why i did. There MUST be one setting that is causing this. I have a shitty 760 2gb and after finding the setting that caused it it runs a lot better

I spent about 45 minutes going through each setting individually and testing it and then doing things like turning 2 off to see if that made a difference. I really dont know whats going on here.

 

 

Nvidea did just release an update for the drivers for my card last tuesday, could that have been the problem?
