Can I run Mafia 2?
PC Specs
I've played Mafia 2 on Core 2 Duo E7500 and Geforce GT 520, It ran at 30-40 FPS on Custom settings at 720p, GT630 Should be able to run at 60 FPS at Low
PC Specs
My FPS drop massively during Free roaming even at Low. But I think my specs are more than enough for the game. Even though my 5400 hdd is a bit damaged.Bootleg?
PC Specs
Do you think that the HDD is the problem here?
PC Specs
Could be. You could try to put it on a decent seperate hard drive (or maybe even flash drive?). All of you specs seem okay to me

Can I run Mafia 2?

for sure buddy ;) enjoy
PC Specs
With ease at the highest settings at 1080p
PC Specs
Can i run it on high and expect 50 fps. I meet recommended requirements but then again i meet for AC3 too and cudnt run it on 20 fps -.-
pls honest answer
PC Specs
Should work well. I play it on a 6750M sometimes, a gpu very similar to yours , and that works well too. I would say you'd get a slight cpu-bottleneck though, and you might not get 50fps. But it would certainly be playable.
PC Specs
If you really can't live with less than 50fps, you might want to get a quad core LGA771 Intel Xeon cpu. You can modify your motherboard socket to have it fit in there. Just google "LGA 771 to 775 mod" or so.
PC Specs
Be sure to check if your motherboard chipset will support a Xeon though. It worked on my AsRock G43 board. Got a 2,5GHz quad core Xeon for €12,50 or so and I was able to play Mafia 2 at a solid 60fps. The mod is a bit risky though!
PC Specs
Thanks im running it on high wid locked 45 :)
PC Specs
Can I run Mafia 2 at 40 fps on medium?
PC Specs
yes, but no at 1080p, maybe at 768p you will be able to do so.
PC Specs
Even that's stretching it. I'd say 800x600. But it should work anyway.
PC Specs
What settings for me?
PC Specs
At that resolution ultra settings for 30-40 fps without AA.
PC Specs
Ok, Thanks :))
PC Specs
Can I run Mafia 2 on low ?
PC Specs
I'm afraid you porbably can't. Even if you get it to run, you wouldn't get a very enjoyable experience. You might want to get a very cheap half-decent dedicated gpu, since the rest of your pc should run it rather well.

PC Specs
Not sure you're gonna get 60fps, but it should run very well anyway. Enjoy!
PC Specs
Thanks
PC Specs
Can I run Mafia 2 at low-medium settings with playable fps?
PC Specs
Sure. You might want a ram upgrade and maybe a slight overclock on your cpu for it to run completely smoothly though. But your pc should be able to run it as it is as well.
PC Specs
I voted no because you need to upgrade your ram
PC Specs
Ultra, 60 FPS
PC Specs
Can I run Mafia 2?
PC Specs
Maybe high with some AA for 40+ fps.
PC Specs
What is if turn on bilinear, turn off vysnc and disable AA?
PC Specs
Actually turning off vsync and filtering won´t help increase fps, only if you disable AAyou wil gain a few fps, (There are some games that when you turn off vsync you gain fps, but that´s not pretty common.
PC Specs
Ran Mafia 2 at Max setting 60 fps
PC Specs
You've probably got a cpu-bottleneck in this game. Your gpu is fast enough to get 60fps, but your cpu will only get you about 30 I think. Might as well put all settings on high, apart from AA because it just isn't really worth it in Mafia 2
PC Specs
Can I run this game on my laptop?
PC Specs
You can't. Sorry. That is unless you want to tinker around with mods that make the game much less fun (not just purely graphical mods like less detailed clothing of all the people around, but also doing things like disabling traffic, etc)
PC Specs
But even then I'm not sure you could run the game nicely. You could try Mafia 1 though ;)
