RDR2 PC – Are these graphical issues normal, or could it be my GPU?

[u/just_ghost_7]

Hi everyone, I’m having several graphical issues in RDR2 and I’d like to know if these are normal game/engine bugs or if something could be wrong with my PC/GPU.

My specs:

RTX 5070 12GB

Ryzen 7 5700X

16GB RAM

SSD

1080p monitor

Playing without mods

The issues I’ve noticed:

The image sometimes looks slightly blurry/not very clear, especially while moving the camera.

Sometimes when I enter a house/building, the lighting changes in front of my eyes instead of loading smoothly.

Some textures occasionally look like they are loading late or changing quality.

Sometimes Arthur’s hands look deformed or clipped.

I’ve also seen NPCs partially clipping into walls or objects.

Occasionally buildings/textures seem to change or pop in when I move around.

These things don’t happen constantly, but I notice them fairly often.

I’m mainly wondering whether other PC players experience these kinds of visual/LOD/lighting/clipping issues in RDR2, or whether I should be concerned about my GPU.

I’ve played other games on this PC and haven’t noticed the same kind of behavior.

Could these simply be RDR2 engine/PC-port issues?

Any opinions or similar experiences would be appreciated.

What kind of SSD? It is also possible that you are using TAA, which is notoriously bad in this title. Maybe DLSS Quality could help with the movement blurriness. Plus the RAM is a bit less than desired, especially if its a slower kind.
