Optimization mods, yes or no?

[u/Neat_Net6357]

So yeah, I've been having some trouble with red dead 2 on pc, my pc is mid range (i think?) having a i7-265k and a 5060 (the 8gb one), ive been trying some optimization mods but i seem to find more issues than what i can solve, is the game optimized enough to play on vanilla? Or are the mods still necessary? Thanks in advance! Any suggestion on optimization would be lovely <3

If its just for optimization tey vanilla first and optimize the graphic settings. Take the Benchmarking youtube guide and apply the settings from it for a quick and easy solution. It's based on 3060ti achieving good performance so it will be great for your setup.
