Theres more grass outside the city. Turn it down a notch if you have it at Ultra.

Yeah, noticed some fps dips when i got to play with Trevor. Strange that city is smooth. Looks like grass and shadows are taxing like always.

Got this last night; 55 and 350mb patches. Can't notice anything different performance-wise but it did fix the game not saving the full screen option and always starting in window mode

Grass Quality – Large, Situational FPS Impact
Shader Quality – Big Gain Between Normal & Very High
Shadow Quality – Very High vs. High Shows Big Gain

I have the same issue, we have the same rig ( except CPU, i have a i7 3770k 4.8Ghz, and my MB is a MSI Z77 GD65 Gaming ).

Any solution ? :bang:

Do you have latest beta drivers installed? I'm on i5 4670K @ 4Ghz, R( 290 and it runs smoothly (40-60+ fps) on ultras with 2x msaa.

Nice, the framerates got even better and more stable with this patch.

On my main system (Intel Core i7 3930K @ 4.5GHz, 32GB RAM, 2x GeForce GTX 680 4GB SLi with GeForce 350.12 WHQL drivers, Windows 7 64 bit) I now have a constant 58-60+ FPS with all details maxed at 1920x1080 and 4x MSAA without any noticeable dips in framerates where before I was dipping wildly between 38 and 60 FPS.

Framerates generally seem to have increased on my older PC back home (Core i7 920 CPU, 24GB RAM, 2x GeForce GTX580 3GB SLi with GeForce 350.12 WHQL drivers, Windows 7 64 bit) and my laptop (Alienware M18x-R2, Intel Core i7 3840QM CPU, 32GB RAM, 2x Radeon HD 7970M 2GB CrossfireX with Catalyst 15.4 drivers, Windows 7 64 bit) as well, on both of which I can now play GTA 5 with all details maxed (except MSAA disabled) at 1920x1080 at good 40-60+FPS framerates since the patch.

I must say, I'm very impressed with the optimizations of this game and the way they are still finding ways to improve things with patches. Kudos, Rockstar. Keep it up!

Oh, and I wish single player savegames could be backed up in the Steam cloud so I wouldn't have to manually copy them between my PCs/keep them on a USB stick all the time.

PS.: Now if they would only release Red Dead Redemption on the PC as well!
