Problem...
Huge difference... Please help! Previously on Windows XP 32BIT I had 27 average fps ++ on GTA IV EFLC. (I didn't save benchmark results because I wiped old HDD) Now I'm on SSD and Windows 7 X64 Ultimate and I'm getting less than 15 average fps...kinda unplayable... Here are the benchmarks: First benchmark after a fresh PC restart - closed all background apps then started game.

Here's what I've done: - installed directX version the program required. - installed .NET latest - installed GPU driver and updated to the latest version - Got all basic drivers - Overclocked GPU by a lot of % for the 2nd benchmark test... - Restarted PC and closed all running apps I don't know what else to do...any ideas please? On Windows XP x86 it ran flawlessly on the same settings I even tried 1080p and it ran even better on XP than on Win7 on 1024p now... I don't think it's a RAM problem because a 32-bit WINXP can only use 3,25 (3,2 usable) gigs and now I've got way more usable ram due to x64 system...WTF is the problem!? Even Battlefield 4 (on my dad's 16:9 full HD monitor that I borrowed) runs much much much better on 1080p ultra than this piece of sh*t GTA IV.... But on XP GTA IV ran significantly better....please help?
Tenge500 GTA 4 isn't a highly optimized game (<- understatement). Still, reducing the settings to the lowest might help. The outcome could be surprising... Or simply adjust a few settings and observe the change.
I don't have access to real-time system metrics like CPU usage. You'll need to check your device's monitoring tools or system information for that data.
In the GTA4 installation directory, generate a file named "commandline.txt" and insert "-norestrictions -nomemrestrict". This should provide the desired result. It seems to ease my concerns, as I typically run at around 40 fps or lower on my machine.
If you don't mention me, I won't get a notification. You might want to give it a shot, but it looks like you're not interested. Probably better to buy a console if you really want to play that game, rather than wasting time trying things.
I've already tried that. I also reduced the graphics settings, but performance remained poor. The game requires around 3-3.5GB of RAM and its CPU usage stays between 60% and 100%. I checked the NVIDIA control panel to see if any 3D settings were changed, but they were still at the default. Something must be wrong...
