Stress on pc

I recently got my buddy to download SKATE and when loading everything up and getting into the game, he noticed that he was getting some decent stress on his computer even though its a brand new build more than capable of running higher maintenance games. Its not a super big issue in terms of gameplay. However, some lag was noticeable here & there and there was a time where he had to completely restart because it went to only running 20 frames. Overall we just thought it would be worth putting up on here especially since this games still developing. Super thankful for the ability of open feedback!
