Will Your Computer Play GTAIV ?

You can benchmark with a fast easy tool from pcpitstop

Here is my pcpitstop benchmark score

Minimum System Requirements
Windows Vista – Service Pack 1 / XP – Service Pack 3
1.8GHz Intel Core2Duo or 2.4GHz AMD Athlon X2 64
1.5 GB of RAM
16 GB free hard drive space
256MB NVIDIA 7900 / 256MB ATI X1900

Recommended System Requirements
Windows Vista – Service Pack 1 / XP – Service Pack 3
2.4Ghz Intel Core 2 Quad or 2.1GHz AMD Phenom X3
2 GB of RAM (Windows XP) or 2.5 GB of RAM (Windows Vista)
18 GB Free Hard Drive Space
512MB NVIDIA 8600 / 512MB ATI 3870

looks like I am above low end, almost at high end, except I am on a dual core duo. not a dual core quad.

Although my processor is a higher rating than the quad core, it is still a dual duo.

See I use pc pistop because it is easy small and fast. not a huge detailed benchmarker for my computer I know, but it also isn’t very taxing on my machine. Some benchmark programs can be to much for your pc and break it by over stressing your components. Pcpistop is a light weight low stress test . it’s over in like 2 minutes. I make the score, I look at it, I tweak my machine I benchmark again and see if I got any faster. It’s great, free and easy…

So if you want to see if you are capable of playing the game, bench your machine and post your link to your score.

Colleen On the UGM Benchmark

We all screen shot her benchmarks at the same time,

We all have been coming in and out checking for updates on the ultimate gaming machine. Raggie34 (a regular there) has been showing up and helping like it was a paying job. His efforts  should be remembered. his work is well done.

I had my window down while I dug around other sites and she flipped out with a huge “hoooyaaa!”   so I looked.

And hit the screen shot.

I think I am the last to post so I have to say ” good job on the BenchMark and stability throughout!”

Doing some over clocking

Messing witha sempron I have.

Not really trying to break it, just don’t care much for it right now and really want motivation toevolve to the newest cpu and motherboard combo. Despite what everyone says should be issues right now, I have not had any issues and all games I play, play smooth fast and fine.. but the new stuff is so cheap right now.

Ok done trying to reasomn with you :-P

sempron 3400   cranked fsb from 200  to 205

changed from auto to 200

Nvidia 7600 512 mb agp   from default 420/275   to 437/321

After benching, after playing in game.

I have to say, it plays a ton better without o/c

I played all the games I normally bench with

and saw that draw distance was greater while

in game, but detail was bland and there was stuttering.

REvived my Video card

If you read my earlier post about my cat killing my video card.

You would pretty much assume that the card could not be saved. The card was so bad off it was like the “degause” button was stuck and well you pretty much assume the card was french fried. After 4 hours of wiping with a cotton swab and water then going back with window cleaner the very next day and doing this for about four hours only to give up and say “screw it” and start spraying the video card soaking it in glass cleaner even in the dvi socket and vga socket and s video socket, then going back with a paper towel and dabbing up the glass cleaner after it soaked for a minute then sprayed again and dabbed again. Final spray was a soaker of the entire card to rinse off remaining coffee residue. I dabbed after a two minute soak and drain , then went back and wiped with a paper towel and a hand full of cotton swabs until the card looked brand new. I mean under a microscope you would not find any dust, not one drop. I let the card sit for one more night, and a whole day of work.

Of course I tilted the card so that what ever fluid/liquid that was still in the card in any of the sockets would drain downward back the way it entered.

I dug out my BFG nvidia drivers, I put on fresh heatsink paste (the only heatsink paste I found was the cheap tube I had in my parts box) reinstalled my heatsink

Snapped card back in, connected fans and power to card and booted up and installed the bfg nvidia drivers.

Went to pc pitstop and did my usual bencmark

here is a past work

here is after the clean up and reinstall

To see quick results, go to “compare” at the bottom.

here is the temporary card .
