Alright so i bought gta iv for my laptop today and it has some lag right now and yea and i cant get the textures unless i do a mission. now for me anyway theres no point in even playing it on my laptop but since i need a computer build i need some help!.

Rockstars Minimum System Requirements were

OS- of windows vista service pack 1 or windows xp service pack 3
Processor- of Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8ghz or AMD Athlon X2 64 2.4ghz
Memory- 1.5gb Vista/ 1GB XP, 16gb free hard drive space
Video Card- 256MB Nvidia 7900, or 256mb ATI X1900


So what ive gotten so far was this
well since they do not make vista or xp operating systems i would think that a 64 bit windows 7 would work just fine

The processor i picked out was this one from newegg Link to website below

Wait a week for AMD to release their new FX chips. Or just buy a 2500k.

Keep things simple and just get a bundle

The Radeon HD 6870 card included is good, but beware, you might want to consider swapping it with a different Radeon HD 6870 with 2GB of VRAM instead of 1GB, as GTA4 uses a lot of VRAM
