    Hi there, first of all if this is in wrong section than sorry but only the dell users can answer me well now i tell you.

    I have xps m1730 with these spec
    Intel core 2 duo t8300 2.4ghz
    2gb ddr2 ram
    160gb hdd
    nvidia geforce 8700m gt sli with 2x256mb memory
    i am using official 290.53 beta drivers

    now i would like to ask u if i can run gta 4? I am planing TO play gta 4 on this but not sure if i can run it smooth so i need your suggestions to know how i can run it so any help?

    I am currently playing cod4 far cry2 assassin creed etc and i run these games with my single 8700m gt with no problem
    cod4 nearly high settings@1024x768 with above 30fps
    assassin creed medium settings@1980x1200 with 30fps with a little lag when the fps drops according to game world
    far cry 2 medium settings@1024x768 with 30-45fps and i can say that fps remains always above 30
    so these results with single 8700m gt are good and i dont use sli because its a problem to use and on/off it well than how about gta 4?
