I have a pretty good profile for this monitor. I also have the settings set to manual with a bunch of changes made. I know its still not perfect but its a lot better than out of the box.

I am really liking how they've done the special/perk system this time around.
Also it's going to be great trying to find the magazines and things that grant you perks (IE Grognak the Barbarian granting the barbarian perk). Hopefully there's some really cool/secret perks hidden in the world.

Ohh... Yeah the FPS1 mode looks like ass. It's horrible. I configured mine based on some online guides and I've gotten it pretty good. There's also color profiles that you can apply, but I don't know if they changed anything for me. If you want I can PM you my current settings and you can try them out... They're WAY better then FPS1...
Yeah, like I was saying to comix I changed all my settings per some online guide. I knew before buying the monitor that the preset profiles sucked, but once I found those guides I decided to go for it. I have it looking pretty good I think, but I was curious about the RGB as I haven't decided what really looks best yet with variations in those.

The fuck?
If it's not a typo, it's either an unoptimized piece of shit or it's from the future.
Guess I won't need to use the 4GB mod.
The fuck? Is Bethesda gone full retard or is this going to be another one of those NVIDIA games?
From all the parts of these absurd system requirements, your problem is with that? Really? It's a 64-bit game. Welcome to the 21st century.

Skyrim was a disaster for AMD at launch.
GTX 780 / 290X recommended?
Unless the PC version of Fallout 4 has super-duper-puts Crysis 3 to shame-graphics, or the person who did those system requirements was high, this looks like it's going to be an unoptimized POS.
Current consoles have AMD graphics. What's their excuse now?

I had absolutely no problems with my HD 6950 when Skyrim launched. There were problems across the board, but I'm not sure if "disaster" is the accurate term to use.

Ummm.. these requirements aren't bad at all? I'm failing to see how a GTX 780 that was released over two years ago is excessive? 8GB ram.... 8GB of DDR4 is inexpensive enough much less DDR3....
I figured more complaints would be about the CPU requirements vs. RAM or GPU.
And for goodness sakes, who doesn't run a 64-bit OS now a days (that uses this forum).
Sure, this is all a matter of perspective, you'll look at my rigs and see that I obviously have money to spend on this stuff, but I do know the value of money. I just think its a stretch to think that the recommended requirements are a stretch.

Same as always, payola, it's no secret Nvidia is in bed(esda) with Bethesda
I mean, to insinuate that
GTX 550 ti == HD 7870
GTX 780 == R9 290X
Ugh...
Why are some people so obsessed with age? It's excessive because the game looks average.

I'm just happy it's finally a native 64-bit title.
But yeah, given the graphics we've seen I don't see how it justifies these requirements.

Subjective. Dunno how many videos you saw but some of the environments looked downright phenomenal to me.
Anyway, people jumping up and down over the min/max sys requirements is

Personally I'm not worried about the requirement. Those resources are probably common among people who invest in PC gaming anyway. The most important thing is the game has to be stable, and playable. If it takes 8GB of system RAM to achieve that, then so be it. Most of us would already have that 8GB of system RAM anyway.
Of course we don't know how Fallout 4 will be using them. But I'd imagine that to run a huge open living world, you'd need some additional resources.
I don't think graphic quality is the only factor here. Take for example Civilization 5. Nothing special about the graphics, but the game do use a lot of system RAM and CPU resources when you are playing in huge maps and many AI opponents. Those resources are simply used for other game logic purposes.

Whatever you say, man.
BTW, The Witcher 3 has lower recommended system requirements. You're not going to say that Fallout 4 graphics are on par with TW3, are you?
I'm going to assume here that Fallout 4 @ 4k will run much faster than Witcher 3 @ 4k on my main rig.
And if "average looking" isn't subjective.... can you define what that means exactly? I get the nature of what you are saying, but it is subjective.
Couldn't agree more....
Let's discuss, not fling mud from here to vault 111.....
the Fallout games were never about the eye candy so I'm not surprised or bothered by the system requirements...the graphics do look better then any of the previous Fallout games but it's no Battlefront or Crysis 3...system requirements are mostly BS anyhow- people with high end hardware want crazy high specs to justify their rigs while mainstream gamers want lower specs to be able to play the game...the official requirements are a middle ground to appease everyone
It's a console port. None of the consoles it's for have more than 5GB memory available to the game. If it needs almost twice the RAM of a console just to perform at a minimum acceptable level (worse IQ than a console), it's an unoptimized mess on the PC.

I know, right?
Games are starting to go faaar beyond the 32-bit, 4GB limit.
I don't think Fallout 4 is going to actually use the full 8GB, but they are stating this number as it includes both the OS, background services/programs, and Fallout 4; 8GB of RAM is not unreasonable for this.
Hell, Far Cry 4 used over 5-6GB of RAM by itself, not counting the OS or anything else running, and that game is almost a year old now.
I love this, people whined about how the last-gen consoles held games back so much.
Now things are being designed with an 8GB system memory envelope, and people's minds are blown that this much memory could be used for an "unoptimized" game.
Um, if these weak-sauce current-gen consoles can handle games with that memory envelope, I'm pretty sure your gaming systems will be able to handle them as well.

Whew ... what a relief ... I worried that this hadn't turned into an NVidia vs AMD debate ... thanks for stepping up guys ... now I can relax ... I was afraid we would only be discussing the game until it was released

Actually I was sorely reminded of the word 'optimized'
Haven't seen the word for a while and I thought we were already past that point.
I guess not.

I have a pip-boy edition coming but I don't plan on opening it. My second copy I got from GMG for about the same price.

Great minds think alike!
I may end up getting a physical copy too, to stash in my fallout anniversary bomb since it has a spot for it.

I hope there is a camera mode that is similar to the way The Witcher 3 looks. I hate FPS view on RPGs.
I'm debating it. I may just go digital and cough up the physical edition. I've been burned a lot on the "let me buy this and see if fetches value" and then it doesn't trap. Not sure if that thing is really going to fetch value.
it has 3rd person.

Psh...fuck that, I'm wearing my Pip-Boy around at work like a Pip-BOSS.
