Specs to play Ultra?
What are the specs required to play Ultra at solid 60FPS, if I am not in Diamond City or the surrounding area I can generally run it 60FPS, but while in the city or even in the forest running around it dips and sometimes "skips" for lack of a better word. My specs are i7-6700k 4.0Ghz, GTX 980M 8GB, 16GB DDR4, running on an SSD. I have the settings cranked up all the way but I expected to be playing a steady 60FPS with G-Sync.

Well I have a 980m in my laptop, and a much slower 5700hq cpu, godrays on high and using shadowboost for render distance, 98% its at 60fps but i get dips into low 50's. Have you tried shadowboost yet ?

I know mobile 980 has about 75% - 80% the power of a desktop but I figured the 8GB on it would do the trick

I don't know what shadowboost is

This game uses cpu to render shadows so in certain high density areas it is basically bogged down. This mod adjust them on the fly to maintain a desired fps.

The video I posted is everything on ultra but he is OC to 4.7 and DDR4 3000 to make up for the poor optimization of the game.

NP, This is another one that helps with stutter, If you have 16gb ram you can also use this mod to put it to work.

Yes, you will get dips too but like i said 98% of the game is fine, Just a few bad areas. The mods I listed helped alot for my system.

OP i should also mention that the in-game limiter I found to be crap on my gpu, I ended up unlocking the game completely and locking v-sync to 60 in the nvidia control panel.
