AMD Radeon R9 380X 4GB review - DX11: Fallout 4

Fallout 4 Benchmarks

After something happend in the vault (I won't share spoilers here) and as survivor of Vault 111, you enter a world destroyed by nuclear war. Every second is a fight for survival, and every choice is yours. Only you can rebuild and determine the fate of the Wasteland. First or third person combat. Combat slow motion, using VATS (Vault Assisted Targeting system). Cinematic combat carnage. Highly advanced crafting system. Collect upgrade and build thousands of items. Build and manage entire settlements. For this title we will cover benchmarks in the sense of average framerates, we'll look at all popular resolutions scaling from Full HD (1920x1080/1200), WQHD (2560x1440 and of course that big-whopper of a resolution Ultra HD. UHDTV (2160p) is 3840 pixels wide by 2160 pixels tall (8.29 megapixels), which is four times as many pixels as 1920x1080 (2.07 megapixels). 

We use near Ultra quality settings  on everything (hey this is PC gaming right?) versus an acceptable level of performance. Games should be able to run in the 40 FPS range combined with your monitor resolution. From there onwards you can enable/disable things if you needmore performance or demand even better game rendering quality.

Take a good look at our settings which we can recommend for the best PC experience. Ehm, Gamework we already mentioned and it has an effect on AMD Radeon cards, we used Shadow Quality at HIGH and Godrays quality at HIGH as well to balance things out inbetween the two brands. The rest of the settings is maxed out as shown above.
