Don't listen to Forest he has no knowledge in PC gaming let me explain.


GTA IV was a terrible port to the PC so the optimization is quite bad.

If you plan on running LCPDFR it's a big mod so the official requirements for GTA IV are not going to fit, also if you have LCPDFR I imagine you will get car mods, els (lightbar mod), emb's, custom player models, and MANY MANY more mods.

You will need a MUCH stronger pc than the requirements on GTA IV's site.

I'm running am AMD FX 8320 (Octa core/8 cores @ 3.5 ghx OC'd to 4.0 stable)
R9 270x

and I get roughly 40 fps on highest settings with all the mods installed plus some emb's and other graphic enhancers.


ALSO, the mod auto installer is only on 1.0 versions and up, if you plan on playing multiplayer and use 1.0 you will crash every 10-30 minutes regardless of your pc specs.

So I wouldn't recommend 1.0 because it doesn't add much from the other versions anyways and has a higher chance of crashing.

In your words, if you read it s-l-o-w-l-y, you will see he put.

support.rockstargames.com/hc/en-u...for-GTA-IV are the required specs for the game, but you will want something better than that.

Well you're just a ray full of sunshine aren't you? By the way Forest is correct about what he said. He is taking it as he wants a PC specifically around the game.

The point is he thinks you need something better than their requirements so why would you even post the link?

Forest totally contradicted himself and made no sense.

Read the first post, the OP states he wants to play LCPDFR, therefore I'm telling him the spec requirements are much more than what's said for mods.

I'm not sure of the requirements, but this is as far as $500 will go.

That build is fine, however if he will be modding the game I think he would need something larger than 500gb. That's just my opinions though.

Not that I don't think 500 GB is plenty, this is the drive I meant to link: [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

Same price and twice the capacity.

To use your controller i use Xpadder, then youtube a tut on how to set it all up! It's simple really.

As for the PC, probably best someone else answers

R9 270X on 40fps everything maxed. I don't think so. Else I would be running everything on max, which I am not.
Please, just leave before you embarrass yourself even more.
