Can my PC run GTA IV?

Will an Nvidia card even run on my board? I have a PCI-E x16 slot right now. I feel at a crossroads because some tell me no, and some tell me yes.

For me it's between either of these cards. What do you guys think? I'm leaning towards the 3870 unless told differently.

EDIT: Will a PCI-E x16 2.0 card fit into a PCI-E x16 slot? I am fairly sure it will.

EDIT2: The Sapphire card is FOR DX10, which I wont have because I dont have vista...

I run COD4 with no problems now even with everything on high. I get about 27 FPS on there with my current setup.

Heres a big list of shit, my budget is $200 but I'd go for $220 if that extra $20 or so would make a difference, and I have no idea what to look for.

Is #7 on the page, the Sapphire(The $225 one), the best one? I could do that one just fine.

I've gotten a job a kroger, I can spend up to 200 on a graphics card now.

That's the one I'm getting. Time to go apply at Kroger!

Thanks Chris, you've been lots of help. One last thing and I won't bug this topic anymore!

Will this PSU suffice and if not what do you suggest/Could I get a cheaper one that is just as good?

You could, but it would have to be on at least medium or low, your CPU isn't that good.

Will my computer run?

Windows Vista Home premium 64-bit

AMD athlonX2 3200+ 3,2 X2 6400

4GB RAM

Nvidia geforce 8800 512 MB

500GB HDD

Easily. Have fun. Is that a 8800GT or GTS?

I just hope Dell doesn't fuck me again on my motherboard not supporting the correct stuff like it did with the CPU. They made it so I couldn't Use AMD's fan that came with my CPU, so I have to use their's.

As of November 9th (Going to lay this graphics card + PSU on my birthday), my specifications will be:

Windows XP SP2

3GB DDR2-667 RAM

AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2.6GHz

Diamond Radeon 4870 512MB GDDR5

2 monitors, 17 in / 15 in, 1024x768

Could I run GTA4?

Crysis? :P
