I have these specifications and I play GTA San Andreas again after a while, since this is one of my favorite games. I have one problem. I put it on high and the game works normally when the color quality of the resolution is 16 bits, and it is lag at 32bits.What the problem is? The resolution of the monitor is 1280x1024.Sorry for bad English.

May be very obvious, but did you disabled the "Frame Limiter" option in GTA SA options?

 

[BokiKV]

Frame limiter is off.

Make sure you don't run any RAM or CPU intensive programs while you're playing games, even if your computer can handle them perfectly. Also, make sure you optimize your OS - Windows 7 Optimization Tips

Be nice to know what you did so others will know.

I disabled dynamic shadows.

Modding games to get better graphics will of course make the game laggy and unstable, even on the most powerful PC. Dynamic shadows aren't part of the game.

The PC version did have shadows. The PS2 version only had artificial shadows due to hardware limitations.

I know that the game has shadows, but the OP modified the game to get better shadows.

Where does he state this?

Where does he state this?

I assume, as the shadows cannot cause lag on PC with these specs.

You can lower the graphic settings. This way you cannot face any lag issues in GTA San Andreas.
