Nope, but I always wanted to buy it even though I have it on PS, so I can run iCEnhancer on it to test my computer.

Yeah I downloaded IcEnhancer the other night, couldnt figure out how to install it though... Couldnt be bother looking it up online and just played it normally.

Tbh I dont think my pc could run IcEnhancer very well, you need a sick setup apparently.
I cant run GTA IV as it is on the highest settings now without getting 'Slow down'.

What spec is your PC ?

I haven't got IV, so I dont know if my computer can handle it on high. (might grab a copy alongside san andreas and do this... http://gtaivsa.com/

I was running Crysis 2 on max/ full HD for a while. But my cooling is only 1 exhaust fan (Massive fail) So Im scared my card will explode as it was getting hot lol

Specs: not too over the top good
I5 2500K @3.3ghz (can be overclocked to over 4ghz)
8gb ram (2 x 4gb cards)
Nvidia 1gb 560GTX
2Tb HD
1920x1080 monitor

You'd be all right, the 560GTX has two fans as it is and having just exhaust fans is better as it creates negative air pressure inside the case (basically working like a vacuum to draw air in).

I would get the 560GTX too and run a similar system to you, but damn is that a lot of money xD. Might go for the 550 instead, if my uncle buys my air rifle it'll give me the exact amount of money and I won't have to make myself skint again.

Very similar to my specs when I bought my rig (except GPU and your CPU being the K model ).

- i5 2500 3.3GHz 6mb cache
- 8GB DDR3 1333 (2x4Gb) (Now 12Gb)
- 1st HDD - Corsair 60Gb SSD SATAII
- 2nd HDD - 1Tb 7200-3Gb/s 32Mb SATA II
- Radeon HD6850 1GB GDDR5

My pc runs Crysis 2 on max without flaw as well as run Crysis 1 on max with no flaw which actually takes up more system resources than its successor surprisingly.
Crysis 1 being the benchmark program for all rigs for a good couple years...

Saying this it doesnt seem to hold a bat against GTA IV, running full draw distance, settings on full, mixed with the Euphoria engine & ped AI's.
My rig will simply not run it at full at a playable quality (Not for me anyway, hate any kind of slow down).

I did a little reading about IcEnhancer and there's a couple different tweaked setting combo's that come with it.
One being Quote: "Im afraid of overheating". Lol, which put me off even giving it ago.

Checked a few Youtube videos out and the ones that look really good and lag free are usually maxed overclocked systems i7's, with duel GPU's one for the Graphics engine and one for Physics...

Saying this, Im downloading the patches now -.- Bye bye computer...Lol.
