    Ya, if that's correct I guess my I7 6700K wouldn't be able to handle it. Pass Mark scores below: PassMark Intel vs AMD CPU Benchmarks - High End
    I have it installed and haven't noticed a performance hit at all with my OC'd 6600K and GTX 1080. I think Bethesda just massively overstated the minimum reqs so people would be happy when their older i7 paired with a GTX 970 could run it.

    Ok, thanks. Will give it a try. Downloading now, 55GB for the high res textures. Yikes.

    Yeah. Honestly, I don't think you get the full impact unless you're running a 4K monitor or higher. With my 1440p, I can tell the difference, but it's not a huge difference.

    I have the textures installed, all graphics to ultra and I'm not seeing any impact. Maybe it's because I run at 1080P. I have the usual Bethesda scenario of a game dev who locks FPS at 60. Look at the screenshot, GPU usage and temps. The EVGA FTW 1080 is laughing at me as it's about to fall asleep.

    @specialkone It's locked at 60 FPS, even with V-sync off?

    I had to use Nvidia Inspector to put an FPS cap of 100 on Fallout 4 because I'd hit 500-600 FPS while lockpicking and it would be impossible to do. I tend to average 70-90 FPS with my EVGA 1080 base model.

    As for the high res pack, yeah, I'd imagine you're not seeing as much impact because you're running 1080. I think it's only really noticeable on higher resolutions. I may try to use NVCP to do 4K DSR and see if I can see a bigger difference. In my opinion, I don't think it's worth the disk space for the negligible results.

    I keep thinking about trying that. Haven't pulled the trigger on it yet though.

    I may pick it up next time it's on sale. I'd like to see how accurate it is with the landscape and highways.

    I never have vsync on in NV control panel. I didn't see an in game option for vsync. Before I bought the game I read this.

    Fallout 4 Guide: How to Unlock Framerate to Over 60FPS

    Typical Bethesda (like Wolfenstein) has a 60 FPS PC cap on older games. I'm thinking you must have used that ini hack mentioned in the article to remove the cap. I didn't try it as the article mentions drawbacks. I think you experienced one of them with the crazy framerates and unable to lock pick which I guess you solved with frame limiting with NV inspector. I'm not bothering with all this.

    The game runs smoothly for me. Just a typical console port where devs don't think there is a need for 120-144 hz game play and monitors.
