8 GB RAM
30 GB free HDD space
NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB/AMD Radeon R9 290X 4GB or equivalent

PC System Analysis For Fallout 4 Requirements

Fallout 4 comes with some demanding requirements. Due to its open world nature a powerful CPU quad core, such as the i5 2300 or its Phenom II equivalent is needed. However, on the graphics side you can use the now aging Nvidia GTX 550ti or the significantly stronger Radeon HD 7870 by AMD. For the optimal Fallout 4 experience a new high end i7 processor or the strongest of the FX processors by AMD are recommended. Couple that with a GTX 780 or R9 290X GPU. It is important to note that 8GB of RAM is necessary for a smooth Fallout 4 experience, but you may be able to get away with just 6GB of system memory.

This game requires a minimum of 2GB RAM (tested 667MHz DDR2), a Pentium Dual Core E2180, and a Radeon HD 5870 for 720P 30FPS. (The radeon will mostly sit in it's mid 30% usage though)

The 8800GTX is a powerful enough video card to run Fallout 4, but despite it's horsepower, it lacks DirectX 11 support, hence will not run this game. Test GTA V on this video card, it will run 720p/ high or 1080p/low no problem.

IDK if you'll have solid 60 all the time, especially considering how poorly optimized this game can be in some instances (mainly crowded areas). I run it on solid 30 medium settings (I play for the RPG, not the FPS). My GPU barely works.
