Heh I ran that can I run it thing for FO4 and my pc and yep my pc is definitely in need of replacement before I play newer games like FO4. I very much want to play this game so badly.

Don't spoil the game by running it on something that can't make the grade. I'm running a 770 classy and I have a choice. Reduce some settings or buy a 980 TI SC. I am serious when I say it is worth the upgrade.

Yea according to the online test the 2600K and GTX 770 ACX are insufficient but I'm not surprised. My plan is to upgrade to a 970\980 and Skylake.

The only place I found a 980 TI SC was on amazon. They now have 1 less in their inventory. You may want to consider purchasing one very soon as FO 4 is letting people know the lower level cards won't let you go ultra without some issues.

Wow I looked up the cost on those and way too much for me. I'm already looking at spending a grand and half to two grand on a new pc.

I wouldn't be worried about FPS with this game at this point.  I had to limit my FPS to 88 just so I could use any terminals.  Anything above 90 causes a glitch that causes you to freeze when exiting a terminal...

i run 40-50 fps maxed settings and aa with a single 980 ti at 4k... no sli support yet

That's about what I'm getting too.

Insufficient? No way. Unless you're aiming for a constant 200 FPS, ok.

I'm not. However this pc as is wouldn't be able to properly run any newer game like FO4. For 2 reasons. It's a Alienware and it's running the outdated Sandy Bridge tech. Heck even some games I already run at medium-high still push the computer into a near struggle state sometimes. From what research I've done the hardware in this computer just doesn't work well at all. So yea I've had over 4 years of problems. It's as such made me weary of getting much more modern games to play on it.

I'm not making FO4 my singular goal for upgrading to a new pc. I've had as I've said nothing but issues with this computer for nearly 4 years. FO4 is a game amongst many that I'd love to play but I've had to hold back drastically due to the limitations of my pc. Even with decent settings I've seen my pc struggle. I've actually come to regret buying a Alienware cause of all the issues I've had.

I'm geting a steady 72 FPS which is exactly half of my monitor's refresh rate. It must have a V-sync setting or frame limiter in the game that's holding me back. The weird number must have something to do with 1080p vs 1080i though I don't understand why it would be different from my other games.

If anyone has some stats/settings on a single 970 gtx pushing a 1440P monitor, I would love to know so when I finally get this, I can have the best settings.

There's a setting in the .ini file you have to edit to turn off in game v-sync.  I had that same problem when I limited my frames to 90 (so I would stop getting stuck at terminals), and it kept defaulting to 72 FPS.

It's running smooth so no reason to change anything. I just find it odd that I am limited to exactly half of my refresh rate that's all. No other game has picked that number before.

try disable v-sync and set to preferred max performance in NVCP / mine was stuck at 60 fps until i changed it, now at 180 -200 all settings on ultra (1080p) smooth!

It's running fine and isn't broke so I'm reluctant to break it right now. If it isn't broke...     fix it until it is? 

Sometimes my weapon disappears but I can get it back by switching the view from FPS to TPS to FPS again.

I gotta figure out how to get my computer hacking skills higher. There are some terminals I can't hack because I don't have a high enough experience level. No pwd to be found on any corpses either.

That was one thing I added a few of my stats to. When the random list of passwords appeared, I chose the first two on the first try. With the third, it took me three tries.

It won't even let me try. What perks do I need to start picking?

I had another 'out of body experience' where I got stuck between a terminal and a chair. I looked to my right and saw my left shoulder while my head must have been hovering in the air somewhere. I had to load the auto-save point from when I entered the building.

I figured it out. There's a whole other page of perks you need to slide your mouse down to the bottom of the page to access. I got Lockpick twice since then and need to get some Science skills too.
