Fallout 4 graphics compared to Bioshock Infinite

[Klister Pettersson]

Im going to get Fallout 4 on PC when it's been released. And i can run Bioshock infinite on high settings flawlessly, easily around 45-60 FPS, and i compared alot of the gameplay videos from FO4 to my own experience in Bioshock and find the graphics level pretty similar, atleast that's what I could tell, im not an expert so i could be wrong. But do you guys think i will be able to run it? I'll post specs incase you need it:

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970
8GB Ram
AMD Phenom X2 560 2 Cpus (Pretty outdated i know, that's why im asking :P)

So let me know what you guys think, all i know is that i MIGHT have to get a better processor depending on what it will require.

(I can also run Far Cry 3 on high settings FYI)

Yeah, you'll be able to run it.

Your cpu is a bottleneck for that graphic card tho, but you should still be able to play it.

Fallout 4 has a much larger world.. I would say the spec requirement in Fallout 4 will be higher than Bioshock Infinite...

basically if you're getting 45-60 fps on bioshock i'd say to expect 30-45 on Fallout but what do I know...

How big the world is really is only going to affect RAM usage, how detailed any particular area is going to be what other components affect.

[MisterTenBelow]

8GB of ram is more than enough for gaming, gpu/cpu will affect how detailed the environement is, with this gpu and a good cpu (i5/i7 or amd FX) he should be able to get ~120fps in bioshock (I get arround 120 with i7/gtx970). I'm gessing ~80fps in fallout 4 as this is a newer game than bioshock

For some reason games made by fallout and skyrim I get low fps in most places but in every other game its fine like this game for instace amd fx 8350 gtx 770.

Skyrim is VERY CPU hungry game. Any FX won't cut it.

You should be fine. but i would think about a new CPU and MOBO

Can't really just compare things like that. They're on completely different engines.
Also, with that card you should be doing more than 45-60 on Infinite, my 280x does 60-80+ on High-Ultra settings.
But yeah, of course your computer will be able to handle it, it would be outrageous to think that a year or two after spending that much money on a card like that it wouldn't run new AAA games well.

[Klister Pettersson]

From all the replies i've gotten i've understood i can probably run this game, but i will still be upgrading my processor, because, you know, there's a GTA 5 to be played.

I just started playing the burial at sea dlc and I also have a 280x. I get like 120-160 on max settings but I switched to the fps lock since my monitor is 60 hz and there was some minor screen tearing at the super high framerates that were unnecessary with my setup. And I don't have the greatest cpu either, A10 6700.

If I had to guess why I'm getting unusually high framerates with this game it might be the AMD optimization of the game but I'm not sure. Its a new gpu and I've only tried a couple games on it so far but this game definitely runs above and beyond better than anything else I've tried on it.
