You can try to disable the lighting in the option menu (graphic settings), it should lower the load on the GPU.

I've tried that and it's made no difference, I've also reduced the quality to low and messed with the resolution and still is very heavy on my GPU. It could be the GPU itself but I haven't had any issues like this in the past, so I'm quite unsure what to do. But thank you for the quick reply anyway.
