Fallout 3

The most recent version of Fallout was much anticipated and uses an updated version of Oblivion. Although this version was supposed to give DirectX 10 support, Fallout 3 makes do with DirectX 9, which doesn’t stop it from being a great success. We use the “ultra high” setting with all options at max in the game. Patch 1.4.0.6 was installed. We had to modify the .ini configuration file manually to disactivate the 60 fps limit.

The very high end solutions are limited by the CPU to 67/69 fps. For the rest, the Radeons have the advantage because of better performances with antialiasing.
