Fallout 4 PC Performance Analysis
Fallout 4; Bethesda’s highly anticipated latest installment of its post-apocalyptic, open-world franchise, has finally been released. The Fallout series has long been known to be one of the most welcoming to the PC mod development scene, and unfortunately that is because these games are often launched with bugs, performance issues, and other annoyances that are sometimes only fixed by the community. While Bethesda’s games have always been hugely popular on PC, it is no secret that they can have issues on some configurations at the time of their launch. Anyone who’s played Skyrim with an AMD processor probably knows exactly what I’m talking about.
So, today we’ll be conducting the first of a series of performance analysis, taking a look at the game’s graphics, settings, and performance. This will not be a review of the game’s overall quality, gameplay or story. We’ll be judging it solely on its technical merits. It is worth noting that while we we’ll be following this report up with a number of articles that will be testing various hardware configurations, today’s tests will be focusing on a fixed set of hardware. These tests are simply to get a baseline of the game’s performance on modern hardware, and to figure out just how taxing it is on the CPU. So, if today’s report doesn’t answer all of your questions, be sure to check back soon.
