Can anyone recommend a gaming pc suitable for GTA IV & LCPDFR with car and light mods? Have about £500 to spend and would like the best settings I can get... like anyone really!!! I already have OS/Keyboard/Mouse/Monitor. HDD isn't massively important size wise as I use an external one for everything!

I'm in the UK if it makes any difference? I notice a lot of prices/users on here are US.. 

What is the opinion on Thunderbolt boards? Is it worth it? I used Thunderbolt on a Mac once and it was ridiculously fast. Not sure if my PC needs it though...

Is the Dell Inspiron 17R series good? It has a NVIDIA video card of 2GB.

 

Tell me the best package for the cheapest to run this game.

if you using 1000 to buy a pc like that for that build your own i just order everything to build my own pc and i only spend less then 500 but is cuz i have my own video card and power unit so i think you should build your own

 

also will keep updating as soon as i get the pc

Hi, im looking for a pc for lcpdfr. Could someone tell me of this would work without lag. Thanks.

colombia123: There's nothing wrong with buying intel. You should try looking at some facts. But honeslty, it depends on what you want. Most people will tell you get a intel cpu. However if you cannot afford one then you can get a AMD cpu.

Also, here's some benchmarks. http://www.cpubenchmark.net/common_cpus.html

 

 

rambo9155: I would try building a PC rather picking those "DIY" places like CyberPower. Pretty sure they charge you "extra expenses". But it's totally up to you. As for you picks. I'd try getting a bit more powerful components.

Im getting a new PC soon. Can you guys tell me if this will be good enough to play GTA with higher FPS, and medium to high graphics? If not, then what parts should I upgrade? Thanks!

 

Processor: 3rd generation Intel Core i5-3330 (6M cache, up to 3.0 GHz)

RAM: 8GB

Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 1.5 GB GDDR5

Should be more than enough

So nobody can even respond to my question then?

I have a question. I'm not a noob with computers but I kind of am when it comes to video cards. I currently have a EVGA GTX-560Ti 1GB card installed and planned on upgrading to a GTX680SC 2GB, but I'm wondering if I should upgrade to a higher VRAM. I play all of my games at 1080, rarely do I go higher than that. Should I stick with the affordable 2 GB or wait and get a 4 GB?

So nobody can even respond to my question then?

. 

I think your setup is good enough. As I've said in this topic before, I have a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 (2GB) video card, so the 660 ti will definitely suffice. The i7 and 8 gb RAM should be fine as well.

Guys,
