welcome to PC gaming, it is quirky as hell :)
it is an occupational hazard. Â With a little research, you will find that certain games and certain setups do and do not play well together, and you must adjust settings accordingly.
It kind of sucks, but it is worth the freedom and visual upgrade over other platforms. Â You will get used to it and even appreciate it.
Also, GTA IV is notorious for running like crap on any system. Â I fixed my game by turning shadows down and reducing draw distance I think. Â Dead Island didnt play nice with a certain manufacturer's vid card iirc, not 100% sure about that one though.
Like I said, go into video settings and start fiddling around with various things that increase framerate without decreasing quality significantly. Â For me, I tend to stick to the stuff like AA, post-processing, and shadows. Â I like to keep my textures and details and other FX up high though.
