All of them are horrible, especially for gaming. If you want a decent desktop, you'd better build one yourself.

Just for mta really idc about other games that much

[Dr.FillyBlunt]

Do you want a PC specifically for MTA, or are you going to be doing other things with it as well? (outside of gaming)

What is your budget?

Here are my main performance component recommendations if you can't spend much.

CPU: A pentium G3258 can be had for $70 or less and it's pretty much one of the best CPUs in it's price range. It does very respectably given it's price even on modern games. Mild overclocks can easily be achieved on the stock cooler although I advise an aftermarket cooler for that purpose (hyper tx3/212 plus/212 evo). If you don't OC then the stock cooler will be fine in all regards given it's low TDP rating.

GPU: If you don't mind settling with ancient hardware to save money then a 8800gt/9800gt could be had for less than $50 usually on ebay or something. I've had the 9800gt and I know it can max SA with ease. If you do mind, consider a 750 for $75 (currently on newegg)/750ti/950 or possibly a 950ti when it comes out, these are all entry level cards that will do nicely for your purpose.

So i can buy a pc with a 1gb card and decent specs and run gta/mta near to max without problems? If you can do it with a 512mb card?

[Dr.FillyBlunt]

A card with 1gb VRAM or even 512mb will be plenty VRAM for GTASA at max.

By today's standards it isn't really demanding at all. Modern titles generally require 2gbs or more due to high resolution textures/shadows/advanced AA/ full HD (naturally SA didn't run at 1080p) 4K and other stuff.

[HarrY_12321]

Ah yeah so i i guess ill just get myself a decent pc good enough for gta/mta. Thanks for that

[Dr.FillyBlunt]

No problem. If you ever have any further questions or concerns I'd be happy to help you out.

Part picker is a good deal to sort through parts and GPU boss is a tool that helps you compare benchmark performance on paper for different graphics cards.

Note on something I said earlier, I told you about the 8800/9800 for that price because it came to mind for that price however there could be better cards for that price. For example I have the "SSC" version of this card http://www.ebay.com/itm/EVGA-NVIDIA-GeF ... 3d019a9a7d and it's only $50.

All in all I recommend you don't go below anything less powerful than an 8800. You can use the GPU boss comparison tool to compare.

Hmm i think im going for quite low/ medium for now and im gettig a decent pc with gt 610 1gb or 2gb thanks again

[HarrY_12321]

Will my gt 610 1gb run gta/mta on max? Or prob medium at least?

[Dr.FillyBlunt]

Judging by the videos on YouTube of others with a 610 you should be able to run SA well. I don't know too MUCH about this card other than that.

[HarrY_12321]

Yeah it should because one of my friends play on a pc @2ghz 1gb ram and a 512mb graphics card at max fps on mta so i reckon gt 610 1gb card will run mta nicely and if not i can always upgrade it to something better or just get the 2gb version of that card which can actually run gta v quite well

[HarrY_12321]

Or do you think a hd 5450 is better than a gt 610 they're both quite low but still because according to gta sa recommended specifications, you dont need a good pc, anything should do really i think 1gb card is more than enough i guess
