My old old desktop ran it as good as my next desktop. That was a Athlon x2 with 2GB of DDR2 and a 9500GT 512mb GDDR2.. While my friends E8500 and HD4850 (512mb GDDR3) ran it roughly the same. Not to mention having double the RAM..

Yeah, I know. I was just showing that it's not, which is quite obviously why. Mind you I haven't gotten any updates as of yet.. So I'll try that later.
I think we've all gotten from this that GTA IV was a really bad console port and it has and always will run bad on PC's. Mostly because it just doesn't use half of the computer and secondly because for what it looks like it's really badly optimised to use half of my CFX setup.. A single 6850 can run BF3 on medium and that looks heaps better.

.. what's wrong with your 5750? 
I used to but.. Well my top 230mm fan in the 932 isn't fast/sharp enough to do much damage.. But it scrapes skin which i'd rather be cut than have a chunk of skin missing. I've made myself never touch it while it's on again, only the back of my hand for a "feel" of temps.
