GTX 1050 TI with i-5 7400 LAGGING/STUTTERING on gta 5

[cj]

so recently i brought new pc
specs:
i5 7400
gtx 1050 ti (4gb)
4 gb ram
windows 10 64 bit

i was expecting good gaming experience from 1050 ti but it disappointed me.
i played gta 5, at first the game was working fine(60 fps) but after 15 min the game was lagging like hell. (5-20 fps)
i checked my gpu drivers. (updated)
Did benchmark. Temp was around 40°C

I don't know why this is happening. Please help!

I found the issue ^

What is your Motherboard and RAM model?

[cj]

how much do you suggest ?

[Andrius227]

8GB minimum, 16GB Recommended.

[Astraea Kisaragi]

Long time since I have seen a PC which had same size of RAM as GPU RAM. That setup would pretty much deserve 16GB.

Depends on your budget. And again, we need to know which Motherboard and RAM do you have.

[Mossy Snake]

Buy another 4GB stick that runs at the same/similar speed and latency.

[PepuroniPeetsa]

4GB ram is the issue. I'd recommend 16GB ram. The game stutters even with 8GB, trust me.

16gb ram for sure. I play gta5 on a vanilla 1050 2gb with no issues

thank you all. I'll upgrade my ram to 12 gb and let you guys know the improvements.

12gb is not recommended since then you will lose dual channel.

This is correct.. OP go with 16gb as recommended ..dual channel is much better than single channel

Windows needs more then 4gb to run decent.

[TheUnknown]

Go 8gb, should run most games

yeah this happens to me to on rust with the 1050ti you get awesome frame rate but then starts to drop i found out some issue to counter act that NOTE DO THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK from my experince it doesnt do much bad hit windows-type in edit power plan-click advanced setting- proccesing power management-change the minimum to 100%- then go back to pci express-link state- setting max power savings this should help but also find out what type of ram you have ddr3 or ddr4 and how many slots of ram your mobo can hold then upgrade to at least 8 for windows to run well.
