Title: Is my laptop good enough to run GTA IV?
Post by: MikeyMouse on May 01, 2012, 03:01:48 PM: I was just wondering if my laptop is capable of running IV, especially as I've already purchased it as a random act of excitement :lol:. It's a Toshiba L300-1DN, not designed for gaming, but has 3GB of RAM, a intel pentium dual CPU T3400 which runs at 2.16 GHz. The graphic card is a Mobile Intel® GMA 4500M with up to 1.3 GB of graphics memory and 3 GB of system memory. It's specs are above the recommended ones given out by rockstar, but I just wanted to ask you guys as you've been playing the GTA series, and possibly IV on your computers for a while now, so just wanted to see what sort of quality I will be able to get. Any information will be helpful, thanks :).

Don't tell me something is false when I'm saying it from experience.
