I play gta v on my Asus rog gl552jk gaming laptop pc. I usually play in 1366 X 768 at highest settings except fxaa set to off and advanced graphics set to off. Game runs very smoothly at around 50-60 average fps most of the time. But there are these situations in which I witnessed that the textures were not being loading it was nasty to look at. this situation lasted only for 10-15 seconds and after that the problem disappeared. In addition to above problem I noticed a slight delay in nearby environment detail laoding.This problem occurred to me few times.And the interesting thing I observed is only 80% of the cpu is used and 60% of the gpu is used. I am wondering what was going on. Could anybody suggest me a solution.

My pc rig is :

i5 4200H 2,8ghz
12gb ram
gtx 950m 4gb ddr5
1 TB hdd

you got plenty of ram, Ive ran it at full 4k med/high settings and it used 7gb (2gb on gpu + 5gb of system memory) Probably thermal throttling, you need to see how your gpu and cpu cores behave in game via monitoring software, I use task manager in windows for cpu and memory usage, just doesn't give temps clocks, or any gpu info, so if I need more info, I cpu-z and gpu z to log everything you need about how especially your gpu is behaving when the issue occurs. Being a performance laptop heat and thermal limits are going to come into effect quickly and lower performance as core temps rise, use canned air to clean vent areas, raise laptop so air flows underneath while in use, in some situations replace faulty or degraded thermal paste...

maybe running out of either video ram or system ram, gta v uses a bunch of both on my desktop(5gb system +2gb vram from card). I think the far off detail loading can be adjusted in the graphics options also. and check your cpu and gpu temps, maybe getting throttled.

If you check cpu and gpu clock speeds and core temps under the problematic conditions im sure you will discover something. then get back and post your findings on here
