FPS drops to 1 when switching from DirectX 12 to Vulkan

[TheStark700]

When I try to change Directx 12 to Vulkan, my FPS drops to 1 and the screen becomes literally unsable. Anyone else encountered this problem?

yes same here, DX12 run very poorly on my rig, vulkan somehow runs this game way better "for me".
i'v seen people say otherwise, just shows how badly coded this game online version really is, there is absolute no LOGIC for that.
And my GOD rockstar, i just crashed again when shopping in your game (online) if you dare to open 3 or more shops in a row same town, 100% freez and you need to alt F4 out of the game! seriously FIX THAT SH!T

Same issue than you, dropping to 1FPS, have to alt+F4 because the screen is not usable at all, it happened at any time, online or in story mod, don't know why, this is pure ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i'm tired of that, I just hope they will fiw this soon
