First of all, I would like to introduce my readers to a new category on technodorm called “Games”. I will be posting about new releases and gaming related posts there. My first post is regarding GTA 4 System Requirements. It was released on April 29th, 2008 for both the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 while it was released on 2nd December for PC. GTA 4 is the ninth title in the grand theft auto series.

Grand Theft Auto 4 has received many awards since its release and has gained immense popularity. It sold more then 3.6 million copies worldwide on the first day of its release while grossing more then $500 Million in its first week.

Hey guys would i be able to play gta at least on low graphs with this settings :
Nvidia 8400 gs 512mb ( SPECIAL EDITION!!! )
Amd Athlon x2 4000+ 2.11ghz
1gb of ram
and enough space ( 250 gb )
plz answer!
Your graphics card is not good. You need to upgrade it. Also, you should at least have 2gb of ram.
I doubt you would be able to play this game as it is now.
Hey i’ve got core 2 duo processor 2.6ghz………2GB of RAM, 512 mb Graphics card nVidia 8400gs, XP SP2…….would i b a ble to play it on ma pc??……i wanna buy d original……so pls temme fast…kk
I doubt you will be able to play it on your computer. Your graphics card is not powerful enough. I wouldn’t buy the game if I were you.
Upgrade your graphics card and then you should be able to play the game smoothly!
hey i have 2gb ram
512mb graphic card-8400 gs
2.53ghz core 2 duo processor and xp sp-2!!!will gta 4 work in my computer ????should i but hte orignal on\???
Your graphics card is weak. Upgrade it before trying to run the game.
Wow, this game is heaps hardware intense! Tho i can totally see why. GTA4 ROXXX!!!!!
I am running:
Q6600 Core2 Quad 2.4Ghz
4Gb RAM
Asus ATI Radeon EAH3450 512Mb
Vista Ultimate 64 bit.
The game runs at low to medium graphix, at 1024×768. Still a tad chunky.
Guess a $45 graphix card just doesn’t cut the mustard. :p
Will have to work on that. If anyone is feeling generous…?
i have………
Intel Duel Core 2.0 Ghz
2 Gb RAM
windows xp sp2
it will works ???????
59 people said “will it work”
-
READ THE DAMN REQUIREMENTS!!!!!
oh but it is far easier to get someone else to read the requirements and do the math required as to whether their systems will hack the game.
userz huh? *rolls eyez* lolz
oh, and WINDOWS XP NEEDS SERVICE PACK **3**
tho there is no point me saying this, as it IS written at the top of the page, and some other user person will ask the same question yet again in a few posts xD
i think we should restrict computers to people who understand them :p LOL
ahwell.
heheh, could just write a script that posts the required system specs every day, and tells everyone: “if yuu dont kno if yuur system will handle the game, tha answer is prolly NO!”
or summink.
the end.

i bought it , but it wont work on my computer . went and bought a new graphics card a nvidia 6200 with 256mb. still dont work, i hate it
512mb atleast of video.. pentium 4ht 3.3 ghz i have known this to work on as well. you just have to have everything on low settings and the resoloution lower than 1280×1024
System specs
Asus M-atx mobo, AMD 9600 Quad core Black edition, Radeon hd 3870, 500gb hard drive, 4gb kingston ram, windows xp sp3
Runs perfect at 1280×1024 with most settings maxed out
i have a intel quad core at 2.8GHz , comp only cost 350 , 500 gb and a 1000GB slave drive , 6GB ram , upgraded graphics card for £50 , got a decent computer for £400, got a HD 1080p screen and blu ray disk drive for £50 aswell by just asking my family Lol,
i also swapped one of the unused processers from the ps3 with a 2.6GHz , so i have a 3.3GHz just like that it is incredible easy , and incredibly cheap for some people as well.
I have a good experience with computers so i would not try to do the ps3 processor trick on you own , i tried it because i had two ps3′s and i was lucky enough i got the 8th processor in the ps3 which isnt used and i didnt get the 1st – 3rd which are the ones that run the games
Oh yea if you have vista , vista ultimate package or premiem version works better with this game.
hope i helped a bit or none lol

7 GBram

@rocky sixer
There is something really messed up with your system if you aren’t able to play your games probably.
1) Check that you have drivers installed properly for your graphics card and that your sli configuration is correct. This will most likely be your problem.
Also, GTA 4 requires either Windows XP SP3 or Vista SP1, which you dont have, so you cannot play that game until you upgrade your OS.
You should be able to play Crysis at high resolutions with high detail. Check your drivers.
Btw, the i7 is a quad core cpu, not 8 cores. Although it has the ability of Hyper Threading which makes it act like 8 cores but it is not in the true sense, an 8 core cpu.
computer saya sistem nya pentium 4, memori 1024, hardis semuawanya 20gb, 1.8GHZ, VGA 128, bisa apa tidak ?????

dual core – 1.6 gigahertz
nvidia – 512mb 8400 gs
ram – 3 gb ddr2
os – xp sp3
will work or not please tell
@kunal
I doubt it will work on your computer. Even though your graphics card has 512mb memory, it is a very low performing card and isn’t a true graphics card. You should really upgrade your graphics card if you want to play GTA 4.
man i got 2gb ram sp3 4850 ati radeon series dual core 3.0 ghz will work ?
Core 2 Duo 2.1
RAM 2GB
ATI X2300 128 MB Dedicated
Windows XP SP3/WIndows VIsta Ultimate/Windows 7
i hope it will work with minimum graphics on my PC
nikhil gta 4 will work on your pc provided i your video memory is more than 256 mb
please guyu tell mine also
dual core-1.66
nvidia 8400 gs 512 mb
ram 2gb
xp sp3
why it runs fast on low resolution
Core2 duo 2.00GHz
3gb of ram
Total available graphics memory 1293 MB
can run this game?
Tnx…. My PC actually reached those requirements since my PC contains high specs…. Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad (2.4GHz),
1Gb nvidia GeForce GTX 285, 4Gb Pc667 RAM, 320 Gb SATA II Hard Disk Drive, OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32-Bit). Tnx for posting the system requirements of GTA 4….. THANKS ALOT….:-)
i got amd phenom quad core 2.5ghz cpu 1gb ati somethin graphics card 8gb of ram over a tb of hdd and the game runs like shit gunna get a xbox360 4 it instead waste of money grrrr
If your system config is low
!!!do not forget to install Win Xp SP3
there is good chance that the game will run…
And install SP3 in safe mode
Enjoy…………………………………..
yo, i have gta 4 and it lags and runs pretty slow. My specs for my pc are as follows
amd triple core 3.01ghz
6gb ram
650 gb hard drive
nvidia 9600gt (just one, no sli yet, and i do plan to upgrade)
windows vista ultimate 64-bit
runs fast on medium, but i know i need a new graphics card. Thats just to get an idea. I thought my machine was untouchable until i bought this game…good luck all. If anyone gets it runnin smooth, lemme know what graphics card your working with. Im in the market for one now
i doubt you need a quad core to run the game..but man…this game kinda…sucks on pc just cause of how much you have to spend to get it to look even close to xbox36 or ps3.
