Grand Theft Auto IV on geforce 8600gt

del.icio.us

This is GTAIV running on my little geforce 8600gt :D The game is more CPU intensive than GPU and takes advantage of 3/4 cores. It's very bad optimized for PC. Using these options Texture Quality: Medium Render Quality: Medium View Distance: 10 Detail Distance: 10 Vehicle Density: 15 Shadow Density: 0 I got 17-28 fps in 1024x768, 10-17 with fraps. In 800x600 20-33 fps. Used GTAIV Magic Patcher to edit timecyc.dat and changed the overall view distance to 750 (default 1500, totally insane) for a minimal boost in fps. My Specs: Motherboard: ASUS M2N-SLI CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+ 2.9ghz GPU: XFX geforce 8600 GT 512mb (NO OC) Ram: 2gb Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 (x86) Xbox 360 Controller: Yes The song is "Vagabond" by Greenskeepers from the Soundtrack of GTA IV (The Music of GTA IV Special Edition OST)
