How To Increase FPS in Fallout 4 ~ Lag Fix + Remove FPS Cap! ~ Low End PC
Greetings everyone! Today I'm going to be showing you guys how to boost your fps from those sub-60's to as far as the high 100's! All gameplay was captured at 1440p, not 1080p. Also note that if it doesn't work for you then it's probably the fault of your specs. Don't be expecting miracles when you're running a PC from 2006...
I'm having a lot of fun with Fallout 4 lately, I thought I would make an fps guide, like I usually do, to help those who are less fortunate out. Breathe some life back into your GTX 760!... or whatever you have. This tutorial includes all things currently on the internet that will help improve your fps. You will notice the quality isn't the best with text, I will release an updated video which I will link here to fix that issue.
