Hey GUN! Just found another laptop that looks like it can run Fallout 4, but I'm not a big computer person so I was hoping to inquire with the most experienced people I know.

Can this laptop run Fallout 4, and if so, what settings and FPS do you think I'll be able to run it on? Thanks in advance guys!

Should be fine. Don't expect max settings, but pretty close to it. The lack of VRAM might be a problem if you run mods in the future though: I'd recommend utilising a 970M to accommodate it a bit better.

Thanks alot man really appreciate it. If its not too much to ask, why is VRAM a problem for mods? Will I be able to use mods even if I dont have it or what?

@ApexRaptor: VRAM is most problematic when it comes to using mods of a graphical nature: for example, hi-res textures will chew up VRAM like cereal. Might be nothing, but I reckon it's better to be safe than sorry here.

If someone could benchmark FO4 without mods, and see what their VRAM usage is on 1080p, that would be nice. I'm on an ancient 1680x1050 monitor, so I'd use a bit less VRAM than you guys.

Ah, I see. I normally dont use graphical mods or ENBs so that is definitely not an issue for me. Thanks again for the help man!
