Fallout 4

Crap ass Athlon 760k Black. It blows because if I want to upgrade I have to get a new motherboard too. At $240 bucks I can't really justify the I5 4690k though, then add the motherboard on top of that. Not sure what I'll do. My drivers are old as hell so who knows, maybe it'll help.

 

You have a pretty big CPU bottleneck, but I tell you what. I have an AMD FX 8350 Octo Core just sitting in its tin at my house. For $50 and whatever shipping is its yours. Then you just need a mobo.

 

Your problems almost sound like a driver issue. The GPU is probably not handling the physics load properly and leaving it up to the CPU to carry the load, which it can't.

 

Find a decent board and see if that fixes your issue. Sadly the FX series might not have the horses for this either.

 

May just have to take you up on that. Boards aren't that bad at all really. And yeah, MASSIVE bottle necking right now haha.

 

Just let me know, the earliest I could ship it would be Thanksgiving. I'm pretty sure it is good though. I got it brand new and used it in a server, and that servers motherboard took a dump. But think the CPU should still be fine and a motherboard for it shouldn't be too expensive anymore.

 

I'll definitely keep it in mind, I'm surprised I haven't melted this poor athlon yet, Had it well over 85c for hours at a time, honestly don't care if it quits. Just gives me an excuse to upgrade. Damn thing just keeps on trucking though.

 

85 c

Anything over 65 c for me is very worrisome...

 

She's a hot one haha. Not really concerned with this cpu. The driver's helped a lot. But still getting occasional fps drops

 

Guys.... This game looks amazing!

 

Also I consider up to 80c okay on AMD, but Intel is a bit more fragile, I only got to 75c

 

Driver update calmed it down a whole lot. Runs pretty decent now. Badass game for sure. Only complaint now is that the speech scenes are terrible, with my graphics settings where they are they're laughably bad. Everything else looks really nice though. Definitely going to be revamping this PC. Not gonna miss out on something that could be really good because of crap hardware.

 

So jealous right now

 

Looks great on the Xbox One. No glitches but I only played an hour. Need to hit the sack.

 

Looking pretty damn amazing here too, I'm off to bed as well though.

 

Upgrading to fx 8350 in the AM... Not playing this on medium lol

 

Nothing better than waking up a hour and a half early thinking ill play for a little bit...o no you need to patch first. o and by the way Steam will choose now to be slow as shit. Game ready to play in 1 hour... So much for preloading be worthwhile

 

Same. I had a Steam Update running at the same time initially, which gave me over an hour on the patch. Once that finished, I'm down from the hour to six minutes.

 

Hopefully traffic isn't as bad as it was this morning, snow pushing idiots off the road was great though. I might even skip Taco Tuesday and go straight home to play.
