Anyone else hurting to get more FPS while mods are active?
-
I don't have the most powerful PC but it is a decent rig to play all of my games on max settings 144hz and 100fps+. But when it comes to GTV my PC struggles to keep 30-40fps on max settings with all of my mods. Is that normal or am I not doing something right?
Current PC Specs:
Ryzen 7 3700x @ 4.0GHz
MSI Gaming Trio RTX 3070
G-Skill Trident 16GB @ 3200MHz
Dedicated 870evo SSD for GTA
Windows 10 64bitI followed a couple videos on youtube to improve FPS making various adjustments which helped a little but nothing spectacular. Also does not help when these videos tell me to lower settings which is something I am not trying to do lol. I also does not help when these tutorials don't include mods. An I understand visual mods take up some juice but do they take up that much? I am not using any graphic or retexture mods other than ENB and Reshade.
Current Mods
ENB + Reshade
200+ Replaced Cars (moderately sized around 10-15MB on average)
Police/Swat retextured peds
Weapons retextured
10 different scriptsCurrently I running Med-High settings windowed borderless and would get 40-60FPS driving around the city with traffic, population, and variety set to max. Ill post a pic of my settings soon but figured I get the ball rolling and ask if these results are normal for the amount of mods I have? I know the obvious would be to get a better GPU but thats not really an option right now lol. There really is no bottleneck in my setup but would upgrading anything else benefit my situation. Any insight would greatly be appreciated

As soon as I saw ENB and Reshade that said it all.
ENB alone will tank your frames. De-activate it and watch your fps skyrocket. On max graphics my machine will sit at around 30fps and plummet to 12 with ENB enabled.

@ItsJustCurtis Yeah I hear ya. When I turn ENB off I gain 10+ FPS. But I thought with a decent GPU I would be doing better on performance than what I'm getting now. I read that ENB eats up RAM, would upgrading to 32GB help or it still all falls on GPU?
-
I went from 8GB to 32GB, didn't affect my frames but did reduce the frequency of memory related crashes. I'm only on an old 1050ti with a 2500k i5. The GPU is the standard throttle point for fps here. Shadows and lighting are the usual hogs for GPU usage, of which ENB ramps up the quality of both. If you're still struggling with ENB and Reshade off then try turning down the shadow quality in the GTA settings menu. 100+ fps for GTA is only really possible on top spec machines with the graphics settings turned right down (look at some of the speedrunner setups for an idea)

@ItsJustCurtis After doing these fps boost tutorials on yotube Im experiencing Memory Error crashes lol. I believe Ill upgrade to 32GB memory anyway as I plan to start learning 3D Modeling here and there.
Anyway, wow even on top spec machines they still only get 100 fps on low settings?! And I assume that is without mods correct? Well that then makes me feel better
Without ENB alone and only Reshade running I will get a good 50-70 fps depending where in the city I am which, isn't bad at all and feels really good when playing. I didn't noticed much of a boost in fps when I lowered textures to be honest.. I forgot to post screen captures of settings but will do it tonight incase Im missing some crucial settings.
-
Yeah textures don't affect frames at all noticeably, you can leave them on max. Yeah one streamer I watch gets 120fps from a gtx3090 with graphics aaalll the way down. The game was designed with 30fps console play in mind, 60fps is a good result imo
-
@DugiHowser enb and replaced textures are destroying your pc. mainly 4k replacements
-
@OneMinuteYT I figured ENB is but I don't believe I have that many 4k textures to be honest. I purposely went for lessor polygonal mods to maintain performance but perhaps no matter what it still takes a tole regardless. I would love 60 fps with the mod setup I have but until the 3090 becomes more available Ill have to settle with my watered down version.. for now
