AMD Radeon R9 M370X Struggling to play games (i.e. GTA V) - bootcamp

Hello I am running bootcamp with windows 8.1 pro.


I have the latest retina Macbook pro (mid-2015) with AMD Radeon R9 M370X graphics, with 2.8 ghz processor and 16 gb of ram.


it's completely maxed out spec-wise, yet it struggles in bootcamp, for games.

I haven't been able to try it with other games, but with GTA V it is really struggling, it lags, even when the lowest resolution settings are on, and is next to unplayable.


Is this what I should expect with my maxed out macbook? Or is there another issue that maybe causing this.

Thanks in advance!


Things I have tried:

- Update graphics drivers, (which windows says its up to date) but I'm unsure if it is or not.

Question to everyone who has the M370x. Does your Catalyst control panel show more than just "Presets" and "Pinned"? Mine doesn't, and mine has been throttling down to 400MHz a few times a minute. Drives me insane. I can't help but think my driver isn't installing properly. I've talked to ATI and they say to talk to Apple... I talk to Apple and they say to talk to ATI.
