What is the required system specs to run GTA smoothly?

Is a low end i7 with a 5770 enough?
I mean is my rig enough to play gta4 smoothly on say medium and 720p?

You don't have to use credit cards, debit cards work as well.

you actually need a pretty good rig to run it. i would recommend a 5850 at least.

but what i read is a Quad-core processor is more important than a good gc for this game.

last time i played (back when i was a game pirate)
my hd3870 + athlon x2 7750 BE can play this game no prob.but that time,i only opt for smaller resolution,as i only got a 15inch lcd

but make sure u got a hefty ram size for justice.running on 64bit is a plus if u installed >4gb ram.2gb just won't do

set the lowest graphic details,& work from there.i'll be installing back mine,after i finish re-downloading the game...

having a quad core helps ALOT, dont expect play to be smooth though, since even high spec cpu's have trouble running gta 4 smoothly

i7920 and gtx285, it runs pretty good here with draw distance at max and co.

Lots of options to tune the graphcis anyway.

almost got all games from rockstar i want. bought gta classic yesterday and both gta iv and eflc last year summer and halloween sales. have to control not to buy anymore games until coming big sales nothing much to buy more as i almost complete my wishlist games. waiting for new games like bf3 and diablo 3

my friend, red dead redemption is from rockstar and unfortunately its not released for PC

yeah i knew that. red dead is indeed a good game. what a shame they dont release it on pc

just installed steam from the official site...the update so slow mang

are you new to steam? steam is like that sometime so bear with it lol if you have any torrent opening i suggest you to close it

currently downloading Borderland GOTY.... sudden speed drop from 180kbps to 18kbps

previous posts suggests changing ur dl region to Taiwan it will be better...
i tried that yesterday for Darkspore Beta and it works... b4 that my dl is Singapore and the dl speed is like yoyo, up down up down... after change my dl region to Taiwan the speed is constant at around 160kBps...

hey bro...last time I got the same graphic card as you...G105m...i played lots of games with it

and u know whats the most enjoying game I play? its Heroes of Newerth!!!!


until now, I still cannot find any online game that is better than HoN. Most of the FPS or coop games get bored easily..not competitive

definitely new lol coz i ordered Portal 2, so just wanna try out steam first before the game arrive

but now it seems like its stuck at 6%

try leave it alone. if the the update stuck at 6% try restarting your router

Darn it, I missed the GTA4 promo?

yeap around 20 hours ago

yup, it was 10 usd for gta 4 complete,there was also a promo for gta classics..
