VercettiCrimeFamily Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 GTA4 consumes too much video card processing power and memory. it need 1.7GB+ video memory with full graphics to run properly. when fog or rain starts. Graphic card processes that fog and other effect and also processes other elements and textures. 512mb is not sufficient for those high quality textures during rain/fog effects. so it lags. set resolutions and graphics to low and this may help.

Girish Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 The 9400 GT is a very weak graphics card. It's most probably bottlenecking your CPU. Try the 1.0.4.0 patch as it's said to be the best patch, performance wise. Drop down all settings to low and try the -memrestrict command as suggested in this topic.

mkey82 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 In that price range, something like this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130563 but prices have gone up a bit lately.
