    Does the 1640 play GTA IV well? In the official owners forum (1640 w/4650) somebody said its very sluggish but from youtube vids it appeared to play it very well. Can anyone confirm that it plays well at a modest resolution (WXGA)

    yes, 720p will work good with medium settings, but not i Native 1080p with AA, etc...........(4670 or 3670 does not have that power)

    I played it with an ATI 3670 at 720p on low-medium settings. The graphics at those settings are pretty bad, so I wouldn't say GTA 4 is a game that runs well on an ATI 3670. I haven't tried it on my 4670.
