vsync is screwed in this game, even if using third party via radeonpro. However, I dont know why but if I alt-tab to desktop then back to the game I get smoother performance with vsync at least. The only issue I still have is occasional dips into the 50's only when driving.

vsync off or frame limited just looks horrendous and gives me a headache in this, not smooth and tears badly.

Vsync works ok for me.

I too think 'v' or whatever sync you may use in this game is a bit borked too. The only way I can get butter smooth performance with zero stutter using SLI and GSYNC, is to run my rog swift at 60hz and use a framerate limiter and set it to 59. I'm used to having to faff about to eliminate stutter etc with SLI, so although I find it annoying, the results from doing this are amazing. And I've decided that a rock solid 60fps in GTA5 at 1440p with almost all settings maxed is more than good enough, so I'm happy.

Oh. I'm on AMD / Crossfire.

Images over 1,280 pixels wide should be placed in spoiler tags as I've done for you.

Yeah. I think there's a general 'muddiness' to gta5 no matter what settings you use or what res run at. It looks like FXAA or TXAA is on all the time to me, even though I've got them disabled.

Not bad but still need a pic standing in a field of long grass to show true minimums, as Rossi said your grass setting doesn't look maxed either.

aachil · 29 Apr 2015 at 16:42

my grass is set to very high.
my advanced setting only extended distance scaling is full others are off as they don't make any difference even the GeForce guide says the same takes a lot of grunt for not much usage

Bonjour · 29 Apr 2015 at 17:23

Not fussed about what's on max and what's not. Screenshots look great.

GTAV uses a good bit of my 8GB. It's possible if you have Chrome tabs or other software running in the background.

nope nothing but GTA and steam open. i run 4K ect and maybe because i have 32gb ram total (i content create) it uses more because it can?

here a random video i capped of Usage.
