Think i can get away with Fallout on low settings?

Thinking of picking it up but my pc handles Black Ops 3 badly. Advice?

You've offered nothing to base an opinion on (system specs). Here's a link.

You shouldn't judge/guess how a PC will run a game based on how it runs a different title, there are far too many variables.

You're going to have enough settings to play with that you shouldn't have any trouble getting smooth 60 fps. I hear its quite stable, but just in case, be sure to tap that F5 from time to time. 😉

AMD will get even better with a driver update that should be around the corner. Crimson update is the 24th also.

 

[Grimwinder]

That should be fine for Fallout 4. Also, from what I've read, the Black Ops 3 PC port is a total disaster right now, and you probably aren't having issues with it just because of your specs.

That's great to know thanks guys COD just seemed to eat up my CPU. I'll try to update drivers too, should i be doing that through CCC or something?

 

[Grimwinder]

You can do it through CCC or just go to AMD's site and they have an auto detect that will tell you what drivers are available for your card.
