Which are your other system components.? On the graphics front, i'd recommend you to extend a little further and get an ATI Radeon HD 5770..

do you have a max budget?

GTA4 is badly optimized, and notoriously system heavy. a 5770 would really be worth the cash.

you can get the 512mb version for that:

though i would recommend plumping a little extra for the 1gb.

1gb 5770. should be enough for gta4 at near maximum settings (if not maxxed)
