It wont run :(

He must get a Graphic Card. A cheap Sapphire 6490 HD is enough to run it at lower settings.
GTA 4 is very unoptimised. It puts many powerfull rigs at doubt even !
I know its very unoptimised, as at my computer also (at high settings) it freezes sometimes. :p

BTW Whats the cost of 6490 HD?

HD6490M is a laptop gfx chip and there's no desktop gfx card available that was made using this gpu chip ;-) though there's some gfx card built using HD6450 - are you talking about that anyway ;-)

I think you better get something like HD5570 at-least which is around 3.7k or so fo 1GB GDDR3 model ;-)

^^ no prob - with so much tech products and similar names it can happen to anyone ;-)

@ Nipun - what cpu do your friend have ? GTA4 is a CPU intensive game - so he will get better performance if he has quad core cpu.

You can play this game on full settings with that card. This game is very well optimized so you won't have any problems . :)

^^GTA 4, Mafia, Crysis will run, can't say about others.. Except GTA 4, all will run very smoothly at high settings, as GTA 4 is very unoptimized game... :(

All games will run on high settings although GTA 4 might give some hiccups . Also do mention the resolution on whichyou plan to play these games.

@ a2mn2002 - if you and your friend are eying for HD6870 then you better get HD6870 Twin Frozr II / HAWK @ ~ 11.8k or if you want to save 1k then get Sapphire HD6870 1GB GDDR5 @ 10.8k ;-)
