I run The Witcher Wild Hunt at 1080p on high settings and stay close to 60 fps in most areas. So, I'll probably start with what I have and see how it goes. Even if my current build is satisfactory for the vanilla game, it will not be a few months after the G.E.C.K.'s release. Mods will destroy it for sure.

Hey Nvidia, bundle Fallout 4 with the GTX 980 Ti and I'll whip out my bottle caps right now!

Current build:

i5-3570k @ 4.5 GHz

GTX 680 4GB

8GB 1600 RAM

Win 7 64-bit

Intel and Samsung SSD's.

Your processor is 20% under the recommended settings, and your CPU 30%

On a lower resolution you will be fine. (lower than 1080p)

If it's the HD6850 it's 13% lower than the minimum requirements.

If it's the HD6870 it just meets the minimum requirements. !!!

To be honest it's between Min and Rec.

first, thanks for the suggestions. not really short on cash, but don't play a ton of games on my PC, and nothing very taxing. will mostly be for FO4, so really don't want to invest a ton of cash.

I find it funny that the Recommended Settings are EXACTLY what my computer is.

My concern is how well will it run Fallout 4 + GECK for mod creating and some other tools.

I probably need to upgrade after all, Probably should at least upgrade to 16 gig

My GTX 660 is not optimal but it beats the 550 min requirement so I'm ok there. A little worried about my processor though. I don't know where it sits in relation to the requirements (never learned the AMD naming conventions) and it's not on that list. Can someone help me out? AMD FX-6100 Six Core

My old (but upgraded) rig seems to be well beyond all the recommended stats for GPU and RAM, BUT I just have never been able to wrap my head around processor model "numbers".

PER my system info I have this: Processor Intel® Core™ i7 CPU 930 @ 2.80GHz, 2801 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)

Can someone tell me how that compares to the recommended processor?
I am a little worried as I got the motherboard and CPU over 7 years ago. I was told it was high end at the time but 7 (err... 8?) years is a long time for PC hardware.
IS i7 2.8 Ghz a lot better than a i5 G2.8 hz or am i going to have to try overclocking?
EDIT: well...I guess "nevermind". I am now overclocked at 3.2 Ghz
Found this on youtube, it help me a great deal : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFUBCKLlDF4

Apparently you forgot which thread you were in, here you go:

Unofficial "Will My PC run Fallout 4?" Thread #2

Being unhelpful and just telling me to wait is kind of the exact opposite of these threads.

You should be able to play at the highest settings without many problems with a beast graphics card like that.

I have the same CPU and the difference between 4770K and 4790 is basically none.
