GTA IV on Geforce G105M?

Hello, I´m gonna buy a new computer with a Nvidia Geforce G105M, and I was wondering if this card will support GTA IV, even with low graphics...

So will it support it?

Thanks

 

It will be unplayable.

 

agreed

dont even try

 

But I played it on a Geforce 8400 GS, which is supposed to be worst than Geforce 105M...

Why is that?

 

It will run but quite bad and all lowest settings

here u can see it being run on Geforce 105

Because its a low end card it only slightly better than the 8400GS. GTAIV is a very demanding game that will even bring down High end desktop cards to its knees. If want to play GTAIV to should shoot for a laptop that has a Mid range card like the HD4650

 

Thanks for the info... Where do you get this kind of info?

 

What about Geforce 310M? is it much better than 105?

This is how a NVIDIA Geforce 8400 GS will work on GTA IV:

Why does it go better on a 8400 if it is worst than a 105?

 

Geforce G105M is better than ati 3470.. And im using ati 3470 to play gta IV.. Runs smooth on low graphics.

 

Desktop Card != Laptop Card.

 

Nvidia Geforce G105M are only on desktops?

 

If you look at the two Youtube videos, you'll realize that GTAIV is being played on a DESKTOP 8400 GS while the second video is being played on an X3100 Intel graphics which is nothing like a MOBILE G105M and makes me question why those were mixed up. The point is, if you compare the MOBILE version of the 8400 GS which is the 8400 M GS with the MOBILE G105 M, you will find that the G105M will be better than the 8400M GS. But they both run worse than the DESKTOP 8400 GS.

 

Both are quite crap for gaming.. for gaming u need something like a GT330M at least or ATI Mobility HD 5650... but if u got a budget of $1499 , u can get Asus G73 with ATI 5870 which can play GTA IV at full HD (1920X1080 ) res easily...

 

What CPU do you have ? The first posts are even not worth reading.

 

Actually my budget is for a laptop of 600€ ... That's why I´m trying to find the best for that amount of money...
I´m looking for a Intel core 2 duo 2.0+ Ghz and a good Graphic card for my small budget...

What do you suggest will be the best graphic card i will find with that budget?

 

I think the OP has misconception that a desktop 8400 is the same as a laptop 8400.

OP the Desktop 8400 is more powerful than a mobile version. To get good performance on laptop, you always have to go for the high end. A high end Mobile is a mid-high range desktop.

 

But wont the grapich card end burned on laptops? ... that what happened to my Geforce 8400 after 2 years of using it ((with a well working fan))

 

correction...

what cpu he would have makes 100% no difference with that graphics unit

with that 105m he might as well get a wallpaper of the game and pretend to be playing it

 

WAIT wallpaper? You mean in 16-bits mode right?

 

WOW this is messed up, but with a budget like that don't expect to get a top of the line machine. You can probably get a low-mid range card but it won't max out GTA any time soon.

is the closest thing i could find to a reasonable solution, with that should at least be playable on low

mobile 5470, much stronger then the 105

 

I recommend you install GTA SA instead, it will look better than GTA IV does on low settings I bet.

 

With a budget like that your best bet to get a cheap gaming desktop since you want to play GTAIV. With that you will be able to play at much higher settings and saved some cash

 

I noticing they screwed up the GPU description in the link.

 

In High quality?

 

if u want a nice laptop for GTA IV , try the refurbished Asus G51s... they have P8700 and NVDIA GTX260M which is high end card and should play GTA IV on high...
