Maybe optimize the game setting from the graphics driver software?
Three videos on the bottom of this page.

I tried all the different options and tried to change the settings in-game but it keeps freezing the same way, ven after reinstalling FiveM. It is not that FiveM takes up too many resources of the pc so it starts lagging, when this happens my GPU usage decreases to around 3% and CPU and RAM to around 40-50% without any other app running. I’ll try joining my server from another computer to see if it is a server problem.

So apparently my artifact version was outdated, I was still on 2430. Updated the server and it now works perfectly.
