Fallout 4 SLI optimization

[Brodotron]

Hey guys, this is a pretty common question, but I was just wondering if you think Fallout 4 will support my GTX 760 2gb 2 way SLI...

Also what kind of settings I could run it at.

I5 3570k
8gb ram

Let Geforce experience set up your settings for you.

 

[Brodotron]

I don't think the Geforce experience takes into account the fact I have 2 cards.

 

[Kenneth Barker]

It does. If Geforce experience doesn't see you have two cards when you look at the system tab. Your cards are not set up properly.

Gefore experience has its quirks from time to time, bu the "optimized" settings tend to be pretty darn good for squeezing the most out of what your system can handle, while still delivering good performance.

Check the system tab on GE and see if it shows both cards. I have two 980Ti's and it shows both of them, and suggests game optimization with both cards in consideration.

Same setup that I have. I've got 2 EVGA GTX 760 SC's in SLI and an i5 3570k OC'd @ 4.3Ghz.

I can run the game easily on High settings with no performance issues. I haven't played much with Ultra.

You will definitely be running the game smoother than it's console brothers.

From what I have gathered. Fallout 4 does not support SLI in its current state. Atleast since I tried yesterday.

This may, or may not be patched at a later time, but both cards are not being used in my system.

PS. I am running two 980Tis, and only one is being used for Fallout 4. I hope this is resolved before too long

Thanks guys, I figured out myself it didn't support sli due to my awful frame rates.
If you go into the Nvidia control panel and force the Fallout 4 to SLI Force Alternate frame Rendering.
Now Im running it at Ultra no problem

Only Glitch I've run into is sometimes my character's face is black. :/ oh well...

I'm running two GTX570's in SLI and the manual override in the Nvidia control panel made my game crash almost instantly. I was not getting double the frames while in SLI either.. maybe got a 15 fps boost which is quite pathetic when it should be double. Waiting for a 10GB patch to fix the terrible optimisation..

I have similar specs, so I'll post for the first time for you brother!

My specs:
- Intel i5 3570k Overclocked to 4.4Ghz
- MSI Z77 MPower Motherboard
- 16 Gigabytes RAM
- 2 x GTX 760 2GB [ S L I ].
- Running on 2TB Western Digital Black Hard Drive.

My Fallout Settings:
- Resolution 2,048x1556 2K - Running through Nvidia DSR, downsampling to a 1080 monitor.
- Antialiasing OFF
- Anistropic Filtering 16 Samples
- Texture Quality Ultra
- Shadow Quality Medium
- Shadow Distance Medium
- Decal Quantity High
- Lighting Quality High
- Godrays Quality High
- Depth of Field Standard (Low) due to personal preference
- Ambient Occlusion SSAO (High)
- Screen Space Reflections YES
- Wetness YES
- Rain Occlusion YES
- Motion Blur NO (due to personal preference)
- Lens Flare YES

FPS Measured through STEAM Overlay - not the best method.

Minimum FPS low 40's
Average FPS 45-60
High FPS 70

I am playing at 2K downsampling, with a bunch of graphic mods... At times during combat I feel the frames drop somewhere in the low 30's but I honestly have not had any issue with playing like that.

I force SLI through the Nvidia Control Panel alternating on Frame 2.
Nvidia DSR is enabled automatically due to having the 760GTX's.

It's not the most optimized game in the world. Playing at 2K is good though

About time! Too bad most people have finished the game with a terrible performance experience. The game should have launched 100% optimized to make the game-play as fantastic as it should have originally been.
