GPU overclocking makes no difference in gta v fps?
i have all settings in normal, and when i overclock my gt 710 (it has a fan so there's no overheating problem) i see no difference, maybe i need to set it to high because gta v uses gpu instead of cpu when texture settings is on high?

you don't see any difference because you are using a gt 710 it probably hit its sweet spot already and ocing it wont improve anything.

It does if you have a actual gaming card. that video card was not meant for playing video games. So nothing you do short of upgrading will give you a huge gain.

funniest thing i ever read "it doesn't overheat because it has a fan" lmao.
it doesn't overheat because it throttles. so odds are your oc is pointless.

Why are you OC'ing a GT card?... have you checked the temps ?

Okay glad I wasn't the only one who caught that.

I would also advise using an actual utility to keep an eye on your temps.

the maximum it reaches is like 70 c

why is it pointless if i overclock in other games the fps increases? i tested it in battlefield 1 and i saw a 7 fps increase

my gpu temperature never gets on 80 or above so i guess im safe

i really fail to see a point in 7fps when everyone who is against you in game is getting far more than whatever you are getting leaving you at a great disadvantage.

good for you, you are easily amused by 7fps.

There's a good chance your GPU doesn't even matter to GTAV. It might be doing all it can with your GPU already and simply be relying on your CPU to make up the difference.

Also, a lot of GTAV's processes, particularly in relation to AI, vehicle density (and variance), and pedestrian density (and variance) are always run by your CPU. GTAV is a CPU-intensive game. You might be able to shove an RTX in the PC and see little difference because of a bottle-necking CPU.

even though the GT 710 is kinda crappy, you should be able to handle it at low settings
also, what CPU are you using? gta 5 is extremely CPU dependent and having a powerful GPU will not change much if you're using a weak CPU

a 7 fps boost isnt bad with a card like his

As stated by others repeatedly on previous threads there's not much we can help with boosting your fps since your gpu doesn't meet minimum requirements. OCing really won't help that much, if at all. In GTA:O, your fps will dip even further.

There are several guides online to tweak in-game settings if you haven't tried them yet

Still pointless to OC if that boost doesn't translate to GTA

He has a really old CPU
