Saw this on Rockstar's forum:



For anyone seeing the "out of memory" error - are you running your OS without any virtual memory allocated?
If so, allocate some and hey presto - no more memory related crashes!

Weird thing is I'm running 8GB of ram & my total system memory usage is around 4GB when the game is in full flow so there's no reason I should be seeing "out of memory" warnings from windows as it forces GTA V to close.
I'm running an SSD as my system drive so I'd turned off virtual memory completely to avoid unnecessary writes.
For some reason GTA V does not play nice without virtual memory enabled
I allocated a couple of gig for virtual memory on my secondary/mechanical drive and hey presto - no more "out of memory" errors despite the fact that total memory usage still never gets much above 4GB!
Despite these initial bugs, this port is so much better than GTA 4!!! Big thanks to for the PC love!!

rig: win8.1 64bit on stock GTX970 - i5-2500k@4.3ghz (best £100 I ever spent) - 8GB ram - SanDisk Extreme Pro SSD system disk
