I thing that the GTV4 benchmark 38.73fps(at this settings) is low you sued get at list 10fps more. Or maybe your Phenom II TripleCore 720 2.8 holed you card back.

What system did expreview use for the benchmark run? GTA IV is heavily dependant on the CPU and good though it is, the PII wo n`t match a fast i7 rig in this game.
Do n`t worry about the memory (see the article on Toms front page) 4Gb of 1066 Rams is n`t going to give you more than a few FPS over 4Gb of 667 RAM, despite the seemingly large performance difference.

Intel Core 2 QX9650 oc 400mhz x10(EIST/C1E off)
assus maximum II formula (BIOS 1901| 12/17 2008)
radon 4890 1 gig 750 core 3.6 mem GDDR5
mem DDR2 -800 2 gig x2 =4 gig

Ah.
I think we`ve found your missing FPS.
There`s no way a PII is going to match that QX9650 at 3.4GHz, especially on a CPU hungry game like GTA IV.
I tend to play mainly FPS games and find that turning shadows low or off gives a big boost to framerates and perhaps the water details could be turned down too.

Reply to viper200

should i start to look at over-clocking my cpu?
