How should GTA 4 with mods run on this pc? I have all the parts and building it this weekend.

 

Specs

 

AMD FX 8320 3.5ghz 8-core

Windows 7

8gb RAM

Case Fans etc

EVGA GeForce GTX 760

Asus mboard

120gb SSD

1TB HDD

 

Thanks.

Oh shit, that's a nice PC. It should be able to run GTA on high settings. However, some people using high-end PCs have had issues with restrictions on settings, it can be simply fixed by using line in a text document called "commandline.txt":

Thats nice. Good Luck Building it!

What fan? I have the AMD 4.4 GHz 8-core and it runs really warm. I just got liquid cooling yesterday but keep in mind that you'll have to spring for good cooling.

Most systems don't even use 700 watts at full load anyway unless you're running SLI or 3 cards. 

 

You're looking at around 300-400 watts MAX when playing something like Battlefield 3 or running a really intensive benchmark.

 

My PC doesn't even reach over 100 watts running Prime 95 and SI Software. 

He will need atleast a 600w. Its a nice PC. Although I have read that the 8-Cores dont really outperform Intel's quad yet. Its a minute difference.

This is a good video explaining PSUs. 

It looks great, but personally i would pick an intel processor over AMD anyday

Really, i have an intel quad core that runs gta at 60 to 55 FPS with mods, then my friend has an AMD 8 core and he runs gta at 100 to 120 FPS with the same mods!!

I dont know where you read that but its deff not true!!!

Same components? GPU, RAM, HDD vs SSD? Same programs? There are a bunch of variables. 

Just under a month ago i built mine , 

 

Amd FX 8320

8gb of 1600 mhz ram

gtx 650 2gb overclocked edition

and a 600 watt power supply and i run gta on max settings at 45-60 FPS at 1080P
