  1. Well, hope you enjoy the new PC! It's a beast :) What case are you going for tho?
  2. Great build! It'll max out with 60FPS @ 1080P with an ENB. Recommend going with a modular PSU so it's much cleaner and also what CPU cooler are you using? The 212 EVO is beast btw for 30 bucks :)
  3. Special Episode with the Dubai Police Lamborghini Aventador! Please like and sub for more :)
  4. Ticket Mod http://www.gta4-mods.com/script/ticket-fixed-f28273 Red Light Mod http://www.gta4-mods.com/script/red-light-mod-f31656
  5. Many youtubers use edited versions of CRYENB so that might be why. Tell me what you want and I'll see if can edit it for you. (What youtubers?)
  6. I'll just keep twiddling my thumbs. Rockstar better optimize this game with 60 FPS on my Intel HD4000 ;) All in all seriousness, I'll take the wait if it means a more stable game on release instead of multiple 5~GB patches to download all the time.
  7. That sounds like a driver issue. Boot into safemode and if it works, re download and install all your drivers again. Bootup and it should be fixed :)
  8. New episode with a Texas DPS Charger!
  9. Laptops are much harder to upgrade because the GPU due to the fact that they are usually soldered to the motherboard and CPU as one. Most you can probably upgrade is the RAM, SSD/HDD.
  10. The 660 and I5 is pretty good. Better than the previous computers you have mentioned. You'll get about 35-45ish FPS on high depending on the resolution you are playing on. Anything above 8GB's of RAM will not boost gaming so there isn't any point getting more than 8 unless you are doing video/photo editing and such.
  11. Recently, there have been quite a bit of posts about will their computer run GTA IV on this settings with this ENB etc. This is here for you to comment your system specs and I'll get back to you on how well it will run. (FPS, settings, ENB, mods, etc) The best format for listing specs: CPU - Intel I7-4770K RAM - 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 GPU - Asus Radeon R9 280x 3GB, TOP Overclocked Edition PSU - Corsair AX760i 80+ Platinum Case - NZXT H440 Solid State Drive - Samsung 128GB SSD Hard Drive - 1TB, 7200RPM Seagate Barracuda Disk Drive - LG DVD Burner Motherboard - Asus Z97 ROG Max. VII Hero Use Hwinfo to find out: http://www.hwinfo.com/ OR How to find PC specs: http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000017.htm
  12. Its pretty good. The GPU is slightly slacking and would recommend getting a GTX 750 Ti instead or the R9 270X. Don't you have another difference PC post already tho? SLI wont make that much of a difference as GTA IV support for SLI isn't the greatest.
  13. It should be fine, but GTA IV is known to be a CPU hog so it might iffy. Just try it out, make sure you have a commandline and patch 1.0.7.0 so you get some decent performance. First, no ENB and then if you want, you can add CRYENB V3 after to see how well it runs.
  14. Thats a pretty good PC but the CPU is a bit outdated. If this is a prebuilt, I suggest building your own instead as it is much better and cheaper. It'll run GTA IV at high settings with an ENB at respectable frames tho.
  15. Very nice :) Hope I helped out a bit, enjoy your new laptop!
  16. GTA IV LCPDFR 1.0D | Chicago PD- The Windy City Patrol
  17. Yeah, but just wanted to point out that between 6GB to 3GB VRAM on a laptop, it won't matter at all. Since both are 1080P screens, they won't be using more than 3GB's of VRAM. It's just a marketing scheme. Unless you run 9000+ Skyrim Mods that is than yeah, go for the 6GB
  18. Here is a complete guide detailing parts of PC's, how to build them and why. Hope you guys enjoy it A lot of computer enthusiasts don't like to admit it, but PC manufacturers have the power of buying in bulk that you'll never have. Even with their markups, you can often get them cheaper than building your own, especially on the lower end of things. If you don't have a lot of specific needs—that is, if you just need a simple computer for web browsing, Microsoft Office, and other low-powered tasks—you'll probably get a cheaper system by buying one, and you won't notice a big difference between it and something you build yourself (but we all know you want a beast gaming PC for LCPDFR ). Building your first PC may be scary to you, but it isn't all that bad. This guide will walk you through the the steps of building a PC along with FAQ's and general information. Just before we start, I will warn you. Building a PC is no easy slap it all together and throw some peanut butter and screws at it and expect it'll work. You will have to take some time and use common sense and your knowledge while building so there will no issues. Step 1 -Budget: How much are you willing to spend on building your PC? The costs of parts vary depending on their performance and features they offer. *Please note that depending on where you are, prices will be different*. Most common price builds range from $400, $700 and $1000 plus. -Research (Websites): The best websites to find information on building your PC are~ http://www.tomshardware.com/ http://linustechtips.com/main/ http://www.pcguide.com/vb/ http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forums/ Plus many more but those will provide you with information about trouble shooting, the best parts and prices and pretty much whatever questions you may have regarding PC's. Step 2 -Choosing your parts: As we have discussed earlier, prices of parts range depending on their performance and abilities. The main components of a PC include • Chassis/case • Power supply • CD/DVD drives • Hard Drive(s)/SSD(s) • RAM (Random access memory) • Motherboard • CPU (Central processing unit) • CPU heat sink (Liquid Cooling/Air) • Video card (graphics card) • Sound card* (optional if your motherboard has onboard sound which most do) • Operating system software • Monitor (display) • Peripherals (Keyboard/Mouse, Speakers) The best place to organize parts, find whats compatible and lowest prices, http://pcpartpicker.comis the place to go. It classifies the lowest prices of parts, compatibility and such. Picking out your parts is very difficult especially when you have no clue what GB's, GDDR or such means so I have already have a list of parts with their performance level for you. CPU's What does a CPU do? The processor, or CPU, is the brain of the computer. It basically does arithmetic, but incredible fast. Intel Intel: Ranging from lowest to highest (Price/Performance) Intel Pentium G3258 Intel Core i3-4160 Intel Core i5-4460 Intel Core i5-4690K Intel Core i7-4790K Intel Core i7-5930K AMD AMD Athlon X4 860K AMD FX-4300 AMD FX 6300 AMD FX 8350 AMD FX-9590 Intel or AMD? This question is often asked so I'll break down the cons and pros of each brand. Pros and Cons for Going with Intel Pros: Better performance, higher FPS, more suited for high-end rigs, sports better motherboards Cons: Much more expensive, not as much cache (Nerd Alert!) Pros and Cons for Going with AMD Pros: More affordable, over clocking friendly, more cores. Cons: Some iffy motherboards, questionable dependability, lower performance in certain areas (Games), gets very hot at times TL:DR- So overall, if you are on tight budget, AMD is the way to go. If you have a bit more to spend and want better performance, Intel with offer that performance. GPU's What is a GPU? A graphics card or GPU, is basically another core/brain/CPU with it's own RAM for displaying your graphics from your games/movies,etc. Once again there are different brands for graphic cards. And here are the best ones going from lowest to the best. Nvidia GTX 750 Ti GTX 760 GTX 960 GTX 970 GTX 980 GTX Titan Z AMD AMD Radeon HD 7770 AMD Radeon R7 250X AMD Radeon R7 260X AMD Radeon R9 270 AMD Radeon R9 270X AMD Radeon R9 280 AMD Radeon R9 290 AMD Radeon R9 295X2 I will not be listing prices due to the fact that different places will have different prices. To find out prices, just copy and paste the model number into google and look at your local dealers prices and that will give a general sense of pricing. Remember, there is still tax and shipping! Here are some pre-built part lists that have been made already. If you do not want to do research into buying specific parts than here are builds corresponding to your budget. *These builds do not include monitors nor peripherals nor windows (OS)!* All FPS estimates are with 1.0.7.0, LCPDFR Mods, and @ 1080P (1920x1080) $400 USD http://pcpartpicker.com/p/pNLqVn You'll be able to run GTA IV on high settings (No ENB) at about 30-45FPS $550 USD http://pcpartpicker.com/user/davelaric/saved/cbgKHx GTA IV at Max settings with 40-50+FPS (No ENB) $760 http://pcpartpicker.com/p/pqn3WZ GTA IV High/Max Settings with 45-60 FPS and CRYENB V3 $1000 http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Pokechrizx7/saved/T2Kkcf GTA IV Max settings with 50-60FPS+ with CRYENB V3 Those are just some builds, if you want a specific price point with specific parts and I will put something together for you! Many other builds with price points: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/269162-31-recommended-builds-usage As for the other parts such as MOBO, PSU and etc. they are chosen depending on your parts so it is very difficult to put together a list of recommend parts. To find the best parts, check out these forum posts or comment on this post/message me your parts and I'll find the best, suitable model for you.

  19. I would personally go for a different mobo. The Z97A is a better option imo http://www.amazon.co.uk/Mod-1150-ASUS-Z97-A-Motherboard/dp/B00K80MMJ4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424059054&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+z97A If you are willing to spend a bit more, the Z97 PRO has some extra features that are worth taking a look at it http://www.amazon.co.uk/Asus-Z97-PRO-Motherboard-Intel-Socket/dp/B00K80MYGU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424059292&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+z97+pro Main differences between the A vs the PRO~ Z97-A has a lower-end audio CODEC than the Z97-Pro does, 2 PCI slots instead of PCI-e x1 slots (two PCI-e x1 on the Z97-A, four PCI-e x1 on the Z97-Pro). Also, 8-phase instead of 12-phase power delivery.
  20. I really like the ASUS G751 (GTX970M Model) http://www.onlinecomputer.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=13748 Same price but slightly better specs than the MSI (Larger SSD, more RAM, etc) at the same price. Only downside of it is its heavier. ~4.3KG so I don't know if that's a deal breaker for you. Both are the same price. Full specs can be found here: http://www.asus.com/Notebooks_Ultrabooks/ASUS_ROG_G751JM/specifications/ Looking at the MSI, it looks pretty solid :) All in all, I would get the ASUS over the MSI just because in terms of customer service and reliability.
  21. Install CRYENB V3 and then put in these files after into the main directory https://mega.co.nz/#F!itN1kYaS!BbIfTdV1sZjvN9veh-VQdg
