Man, get your tower off your floor! The floor is dust/skin/mite/dander central. I used to keep mine right on the floor and had to clean it every time i opened the case to do something.. now that it's about 8" off the floor I've cleaned it once in the past year.

[CharmingCharlie]

Really the 8800gts wasn't too bad two years ago when I got it, but now it is getting a bit boring. I have my eyes on a new HD4870 just need an excuse to buy one which is why I am running my 8800gts into the ground doing folding at home

I can't say I have had a major problem with it dust wise. I am reluctant to put it any higher because the DVD drive and power buttons are at just the right height for me (could I sound anymore lazy). I do keep a close eye on all my temperatures (cpu is at 25c at the moment). But thanks for the heads up.

 

[Gouveia]

I don't know if it'll run GTAIV, but I'll try to run it on a HP Pavillion dv2000. I don't know what are the exact specs of the system, but it has a 64MB Video Card, that is expansible to 1024MB, 3GB of RAM and a Dual-Cored processor that's about 1.4GHz. I think it can run it.
