the game needs a strong cpu not a strong gpu, so sli wouldn't give much extra performance to gta 4.

You are kiding me? VRAM on the GPU is like the single most important factor when running this game..

This is bull.

 

Vram is important for higher settings in GTA 4

 

Processor power is more important for performance (see higher FPS) in GTA 4.

 

Try reading what you are quoting before you respond with 1 sentence "winners" like that.

Partially wrong.

Processor power AND gpu power are both the most important for GTA IV. You can't take a i7 965 + 12GB RAM+ 8400GT with 1GB VRAM and set all things to high. It won't work. tounge.gif

We weren't discussing graphics, we were discussing FPS before you made your first comment. Vram has nothing to do with FPS unless your trying to max graphics on a low end card. CPU is the MOST IMPORTANT aspect as far as game performance (FPS). Get it now?

 

The rig you suggested would run just fine (high FPS) if you turned most of the settings to minimal.

Rockstar themselves said that they built all versions of gta 4 from the ground up on the three different platforms.

Why does it say "please don't turn off your system" while saving on PC?

That would be ill-advised. ph34r.gif

What the point of you posting in this thread if you're saying such things? If you're saying "So what" it means you don't know the point of the thread.

i read on the internet that the xbox 360 uses a xbox emulator to play xbox first series games

Yeah the xbox 360 does use an emulator to run xbox games, but emulating the xbox is a lot easier than the 360 because the xbox is weak.

One of the things about PC gaming is eventually I will be playing GTA 4 @ 2560 x 1600 @ 60fps. It's just going to take a while for the technology to get there to do it.

@ CharmingCharlie: This was the core of my argument that we should have Anti-Aliasing. In a few years, you'd be playing with 16Q. biggrin.gif

 

(And yes, I understand it was financially inefficient to develop AA for the PC. However, I still wish we had it... and DirectX 10... and better water.)
