i'd like to think my pc is quite powerful, but even for me i get some jittering and lag here and there, thats with only some options maxed. i dont have view distance on full neither do i have night shadows on and i set my shadows to high which for my pc is the stressing point of it all. In lamerns terms yes i think you could run it but dont expect good graphics. In all probability mostly all of your settings will be put to low and the gameplay won't have the same effect as you might think. Another thing to maybe try before you get the game would be to search google for your laptop/components to see how well others are finding it to run. hope this helps.

You can try however with your specs I doubt it will be playable even at low settings.

To be honest, i would not even bother.

Even on the lowest settings, 256mb vram is way too low for the game, it will lag as hell and especially as you have a standard 1.8ghz CPU.

For the game, you would need at least 2.3ghz cpu and a minmum of 512mb Vram.

Sorry to burst your bubble but that is a majorly heavy game, best bet, get an xbox or summin or save up and get a decent desktop PC or save a lot more and get a high grade gaming laptop.

I need to be sure before installing..As it is a huge buggy game..I dont want to spend money if it is not supported.

The problem is your video card, on board video cards don't really cut the mustard. I would imagine it would probably run, but even with settings turned down to their lowest, I think that the game would be not very playable.

 

[jr26]

Honestly I wouldn't bother.

In my uncle`s laptop the graphic card Nvidia GE force 425 M with an I-7 processor..will it work on that atleast?

 

[jr26]

Yes. It won't max it out but it should be playable.

 

[Clinkz]

Yes it should.

 

[bagavan]

Yes. It won't max it out but it should be playable.

With a 2 Gig card it must be very good...

If the quality is playable on a Nvidia Ge force 425 M then I wont purchase it..

 

[jr26]

How much vram a card has doesn't necessarily dictate how powerful it is. Also the 425m I believe only comes with 1gb of vram. You may see 2gb from shared memory.

One of the most important components for GTA IV is actually the CPU. You can get away with mid-range GPU with a higher end CPU and the game usually will run well (depending of course as its optimization is questionable)

 

[Matt2488]

It will run but it certainly won't be playable.

 

[NotYourHero]

If you can run it on low do it. This game is graphically challenged on max. Flickering textures among many things. It is very hardware heavy though so if this is a laptop its gonna burn hot.

Why not load up one of the older GTA's...because even if it limps along all you can do is wander around and admire the pitiful scenery....

GTA san andreas runs very well on my laptop.

It will only run at low settings since you only have 256MB of video memory, GTA4 uses about 1.2GB of video memory when at max settings, you laptop isn't even designed for gaming btw

Mobile GPUs are not optimized for gaming, they have slower clock rate than PC cards hence they cannot run most new games properly. The best thing is to get a desktop PC for gaming

Will the performance be acceptable at least in the nvidia card?
