Settings Help - Sudden Decrease in Graphics - Legacy

July 25, 20178 yr

Hey all,

I was wondering if I could get some help with my settings for GTA V. I used to be able to run GTA V without any issues until recently it started to lag, textures drop when driving fast etc. I recently tried a mod from GTA5 Mods called "Best High Settings For Medium and Low PC 3.1.2 " and it seems to have made everything worse. Now the scenery loads for a minute, then invisible roads, invisible buildings, and I can see through the map.

So I deleted my mods folder, deleted my settings and restored them to default. Still, graphics except for the car mods I reinstalled, suck. I am running the non-steam version and I am in the process of verifying game data to make sure nothing is corrupted. But I could use some help getting some decent settings for my computer.

First of all, it's not an amazing PC. It's a laptop that I have been able to play games on as well as do school work. It's an Asus Q551L. System stats are the following:

OS: Windows 10

Processor: i7-4510 CPU @ 2.00 GHz 2.60 GHz

RAM: 8GB

Video Card: GeForce 840M

Direct3D API Version: 12

Direct3D Feature Level: 11

Graphics Dock: 1029 MHz

Memory Data Rate: 1800 MHz

Memory Bandwidth: 14.40GB/s

Total Available Graphics: 6085 MB

Dedicated Video Memory: 2048 MB DDR3

Like I said, I know the computer isn't amazing. I used to have no issues though. If anyone could help with suggested settings or recommendations please let me know!
