Upgrading GPU During Playthrough

Post » Mon Sep 07, 2015 5:16 pm

Hi all. I've been replaying Fallout 3 in anticipation of Fallout 4's release.

I've decided to update my outstanding, yet aging ATI HD 5850 to an MSI GTX 970. Is there anything that I should do other than perhaps generate a new .ini to ensure a smooth transition? Thanks!

After the GPU is installed, start the game from FalloutLauncher.exe so that the game will detect your new GPU and set the graphics accordingly. Once that is done, exit out of the game and use your usual launcher.
