Hes Simply the best ! He's just lucky that he gets to play that part, it's all fake y'know. And u think The Dark Knight is a Real Story or Real Movie? Movies are kinda DRAMAs like wwe Is....

GTA Don Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) GTA4 will have SM3 for sure.What about me: 2.2ghz AMD Athlon 64 3500+ 1.5GB RAM ATI Radeon 9600 256MB(Gonna get Geforce 9600 when GTA4 comes out) Windows XP Pro SP2 Not bad, but that 512MB is worthless. Buy another 512MB so it runs in dual-channel mode.

Nvidia Geforce 7800 or better or ATI Radeon X1800 or better Source:- http://www.gta4.tv/page/38/pc-version-spec...tions&vo=17 This Information Should come in the front page of Thegtaplace.com, Very useful Information Yes, I'll ask Chris. I'm sure he'll agree. How about my PC:CPU-Quadcore Intel core 2 quad Q6600 2400 MHz GPU-ATI Radeon HD 3870 512 MB Memory- 2 GB DDR2-800 DDRS SDRAM OS-Winodws XP Professional And tell me please if it can run the game on "high". Thanks. Yeah, it'll definitely run on high. GTA IV definitely won't require a quad-core but I'm guessing it will be optimized to work with dual cores and single cores so you'll only need to use one or two cores of your CPU.

The Xbox 360 has three cores and the PS3 seven, but how many of those cores the game used is unknown to me. But the possibility is there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Righty Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Yeah, it'll definitely run on high.

The Xbox 360 has three cores and the PS3 seven, but how many of those cores the game used is unknown to me. But the possibility is there. Even if the game isn't optomized for quad core, you can force only the game to run on 2 cores. IE GTA4 on Cores 0 and 1 and OS/Applications on 2,3. That would give a slight increase. But like most games, the CPU probably won't be the bottleneck area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTA Don Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Yes, but if you've played the PS3 or 360 versions of GTA IV, you'll have noticed that Liberty City is a living, breathing city. There's a new game engine, new physics engine, ped AI is much different now. And anyway, R* would never copy another games requirements.

Righty Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 You seem to have very similar specs to mine. I believe your card is better than what I have - I am pretty sure the HP laptops use the DDR3 version of the 8600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrLlamaLlama Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 When you're including your specs, it's also very relevant what screen resolution you're running. A game might run on high at 800x600, but have to take a massive drop in visuals to run at 1280x1024. When anyone says 'at high settings' it's useless unless they say what resolution they are at. If you run on the wrong resolution for your screen, chances are the game will look shit anyway. @ evo... you probably could run that...if the 8xxx was an 8800 GTX or something... and if you were at 1280x1024. I got that out of my system, but when i went up to 1680x1050, i had to drop it down to just high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you can run GTA IV on an internal/built-in graphics chipset such as the Intel GMA, especially if you are using Windows Vista, which uses more resources than XP. I think an Nvidia 8600 or 7300 will do, well, at least if you set the graphics to low or medium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Nvidia 7300 lol General rule of thumb with nVidia cards. In 4-number series cards, if the second number is below 6, the card sucks and should never be used for gaming ever. Same thing with ATi, although it's generally the second number being below 8 that denotes failure. If your graphics card is integrated/Intel, I doubt you'll be able to play at all. I've said it before: if you can't play San Andreas maxed out (Very High visual FX), at 1280x1024 and get a constant framerate (usually 25 if V-Sync is off and frame limiter is on) then good luck playing GTA IV.

Shortbus Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) I use an ATI Radeon X1300 Pro, works fantasticly for games such as HL2: Ep2. I get framerate issues when all settings are maxed out(but everything looks quite pretty.), herein lies the problem with not enough RAM and my slightly-below-average AMD Athlon 64 3200+ processor.

MrLlamaLlama Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Asus tend to be the best when it comes to customer service, warranty, and all that. So that's what i say.
