Chris Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I just received an email a few minutes ago from Chris Faylor from Gaming-Age, we reported about their article in an earlier news post. They listed the minimum system requirements in the article, and I also mentioned in my post that they got the release date wrong... tut tut. Well Chris emailed me with this: Hey Chris,Just wanted to let you know that the minimum specs posted alongside our preview came straight from Rockstar. They also sent along some recommended specs, in case you're interested. And yea, looks like we goofed on the release date, I'll work on getting that fixed. Minimum: 1GHz Intel Pentium III or AMD Athlon Processor 256 MB of RAM 8 speed DVD-ROM Drive 3.6 GB of free Hard Disk space for a minimal install 64 MB Video Card with DirectX 9 compatible drivers ("GeForce3" or better) DirectX 9 compatible Stereo Sound Card Keyboard Mouse Recommended: Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon XP processor (or better) 384(+) MB of RAM 16 speed DVD-ROM drive 4.7 GB of free Hard Disk space for a full install 128(+) MB Video Card with DirectX 9 compatible drivers ("GeForce4" or better) DirectX 9 compatible Surround Sound Card Game pad with twin axis analog controls (USB or Joystick Port) Keyboard Mouse -Chris -- Gaming Age Online So we're the first fansite to have these specs, and they look a pretty logical increase in technology from Vice City so I'm quite sure these are real. I've put them on the System Requirements page for easier viewing. If you haven't got the recommended hardware then I recommend you get it in order to heighten your gaming experience!

Akuma Posted April 28, 2005 Share Posted April 28, 2005 I'm wondering if a Radeon 9000 pro would run it? It's (the card) is acting up on GTA3 but doesn't on VC. Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted April 28, 2005 Author Share Posted April 28, 2005 How much MB has that card got? and if it runs VC it'll probably run SA alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
