Greetings all who are reading this, I want to know if A: My computer specs are sh*t. And B: How I can run GTA IV faster. I currently have about 1 FPS -_-. Here are my specs from dxdiag: Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430. 3GB RAM. Processor: AMD Athlon™ II X4 620. 4 CPUs 2.6GHz DirectX 11. Thank you for reading this Please find the time to comment and help me. Thank

You could try Dr. John's sh*t straight up from da hood , but 1 FPS, if at lowest settings I suggest buying a new PC.

That graphics card is onboard and is too weak for GTA 4.

Buy a graphics card, depending on your psu wattage.

Right, I will get a new graphics card, but do I need anything else? Is everything else good? I hope so.

Not exactly, but it depends on how much you're willing to pay for a new one.

Can you please show us your budget?
your motherboard?
Do you live in or out of USA?

£100 Budget
Don't know how to find out about motherboard etc, tried Everest Home Edition but Motherboard comes up as Unknown :\
I'm in UK, Scotland to be more specific.

EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 SuperClocked | £115

Blame VAT for that extra £15

Still not sure about getting a GPU, instead of a whole new PC. Do you have a budget for one?

[CaptainSkillzz]

Thanks man, if it works and is totally awsome I will love you <3. But if it doesn't I will find your house and take a sh*t down your chimney

That card needs a 450 watt psu with 2 6pin connectors.

Yep, what's your PSU?

[CaptainSkillzz]

300 Have another card though, Nvidia GT 440, I think that would suit my computer quite well, you guys agree?

You won't be able to play IV that good w/ that GPU.

Well I can say is if you want to do so, you need to get a new PC.

If you can't currently, then use that GPU. Still, don't expect good performance.

[CaptainSkillzz]

I don't want to play GTA IV on max, I don't care about high or low graphics, I just want to be able to play it with stable FPS. For that <--- Will it work? (Play GTA IV on Low w/ stable FPS w/ that GPU)

[luceberg]

A gt440 would work ok on that psu.

GTA 4 would be well playable on that, if not the most beautiful.

Yes it will, will you buy that GPU, or do you already have it?

[CaptainSkillzz]

Will buy.

Hold on then, I may find something better.
