furious_gamer

Excessive happiness
Was intending to play GTA IV... my specs being
Core 2 duo 1.8ghz
1gb ram
8600gt 256mb

would i be able to ....
Just get another 2GB DDR2(as the prices are dead low) and sure ur rig will run GTA4 smoothly at low-mid(think so, but not sure) settings...

Will gta 4 run on my rig?
P4 ht 3ghz
2gb ddr1
9500GT 512 DDR2
Sure will play at lowest settings.
I play it with my config P4 HT @ 3.72GHz
2GB DDR2
7600GT...:D
And it give a steady 15-18 fps at lowest....
It gives u a steady 20+ FPS (think so) as u have a 9500GT.

Hello everyone!
This is my system:
MoBo -> Gigabyte GA-EP43-DS3L
CPU -> Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5300 (2,6 GHz)
GPU -> Geforce 9500GT, 512Mb DDR3 (by Gigabyte)
Memory -> 2x2048 DDR2 at 800 MHz, dual channel (Kingston)
OS -> Win XP SP3 (So i can use only 3,25 Gb RAM)
~~~
Q -> What games could be a trouble for my PC? I mean, cannot be played at least 25FPS on low settings, without OC :D.

Thank you!

Well it depends on the resolution you are playing at. If u r happy playing at 800x600 (or low) then ur system is sufficient for most of the current games except CRYSIS : Warhead.
If u like quality stuff (1600x1200, AA on, AF on, max details) then ur system is not a monster for current dx 10 games. It is quite mid-low powered rig.
Also u'll be bottlenecked by ur CPU for current games like:
- CRYSIS : Warhead
- GTA IV

U can play all 2007 games with considerable quality and settings and some of 2008 games too.
Just more than 2xAA will take a huge hit. Also it depends a lot on ur reso.

okay, i was thinking about getting a macbook.
the config will be :
1] CPU : Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz / 1066MHz FSB / 3MB shared L2 cache
2] Memory : 2GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM
3] HDD : 250GB Serial ATA, 5400 rpm
4] GPU : NVIDIA GeForce 9400M with 256MB of shared DDR3 SDRAM

What kinda games will it be able to play? What about games like GTA IV, GoW, Mirror's Edge, COD 4 & 5, etc?
if it doesnt play the new ones on really high settings, its fine by me.

Why you are getting a macbook ? I don't know if those games have a Mac OS version.

Get a laptop from dell or MSI with 9600M GT. You will be able to play the above mentioned games.

No, no..
i'm gonna install windows and play games on XP / Vista.
Just wanted to know how they would run on that config.

The other option is a Dell Studio 13 with the specs :
1] CPU : Intel Core 2 Duo P9500 2.53GHz / 1066MHz FSB / 6MB Cache
2] Memory : 4GB 1067MHz DDR3 SDRAM
3] HDD : 320GB (7200 RPM) SATA Hard Driv
4] GPU : 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 9500M-GE with Hybrid SLI Technology

But it has been said that the 9500M GE is not a true 9500 GS and its performance is not that good.

Anyway, it would be great if you could tell me how the aforementioned games would run on either.

Dude the games will run but 9400GT would give you jerky frame rate in games.

So it's better for you to opt for a 9600M gt based lappy. I'm talking about this lappy:
*www.msicomputer.com/NB/product_spec.asp?model=MS-1722-ID1

Dell also has one XPS M1530. But it's price is much higher than MSI.

That dell lappy is a good option two. since it has sli it will perform better than 9400.

that lappy is 17". i dont want one that big. i cannot lug around a laptop too big.
the max i can go is 15" while 13" is preferable.

Dell XPS M1530 comes with 9600M GT.

Dell XPS 1530 doesnt have 9600 man....it's got the 8600M GT. It's inferior to the 9600 by a good margin.

I found out that HP has a few pavillion series laptops with the 9600M GT but I have been told (by a few people) that HP hardware usually breaks down after a year or so, right after the warranty is over.:( Is that true? :-?:-?
