working with GTA IV and GTA Liberty City

Mnski-Ice · Mar 28, 2013

could somebody help me?, well my friend gave me this for a graduation gift so, I was wondering if GTA IV and GTA Liberty City will work on my pc?

here's my specs:

Motherboard: Gigabyte H61M-DS2 rev2.2
CPU: Intel i5-3470 3.2ghz
RAM: 4gb
GPU: Geforce 210
PSU: 600w
HDD: 500gb partitioned to 300gb and 200gb

and can you prefer any great games that I can play too?

your gpu is on the light side....the rest of your systems is good though. it will probably run but not very well. i suggest a gpu upgrade when you can afford it.

Your graphics card could use a HUGE upgrade - that'll barely run powerpoint.

If you do that, you'll probably have to upgrade your power supply too.

What brand is the power supply? What resolution is your monitor?

DarkSable :

assuming its not a poor qualtiy power supply, 600w is enough for 99% of modern single gpu cards. but yes your gpu really needs an upgrade

atomicWAR :

No, I know, but the no brand name worries me.

DarkSable :

well it comes with my Powerlogic Chasis well, I was wondering to upgrade my GPU to ASUS GeForce GTX 660 Ti DirectCU II Top Edition but somehow i can't find one here in the Philippines.

DarkSable :

no argument from me thus the assuming part of my statement. i, like you, am very particular about power supplies. i prefer seasonic, xfx, corsair and pc power and cooling.

DarkSable · Mar 29, 2013

Mnski-Ice :

Yeah, you really want to upgrade that power supply - it is NOT reliable, and, I guarantee you, can't actually push 600w.

As for the Top edition, it's hard to find even within areas where it's widly sold.

atomicWAR · Mar 29, 2013

agreed you need a new power supply....

Mnski-Ice · Mar 29, 2013

DarkSable :

yeah I know and I think it's 15k php here in the Philippines too much expensive.

Mnski-Ice · Mar 29, 2013

atomicWAR :

If I'm going to upgrade my PSU, I will change my chasis as well because that chasis has it's own PSU and that's the 600W.

johnnyq1233 :

well, GeForce GT 640 1gb DDR3 it's not very expensive though

Mnski-Ice · Mar 29, 2013

well this one's good but no't a TOP Edition, http://dynaquestpc.com/index.php/components-2/graphic-cards/asus-gtx660ti-dc2-2gd5-2gb-192bit-gddr5-video-card.html, but too expensive like the TOP

johnnyq1233 · Apr 3, 2013

That's a pretty nice card. convert that price to US dollars.

Mnski-Ice · Apr 14, 2013

johnnyq1233 :

about $350-$400 it's over my budget

so can you prefer some good graphic cards because this October to December I will plan to buy it so can you prefer what good graphic cards that worth $50-$100 a GeForce one, thanks

Hey my ati rage can run powerpoint!

johnnyq1233 · Apr 16, 2013

If you can get the GT640 with 2 GB of memory you might get away with min graphics.
But I would recommend at least a GTX650ti for GTA IV... and that will run on a 500 watt PSU.. but good quality.
Here is a comparison of the two: http://www.hwcompare.com/13461/geforce-gt-640-ddr3-vs-geforce-gtx-650/
Hope this helps.. JQ
