Fallout 4 on GeForce RTX 5090
Yes. The GeForce RTX 5090 is well above Fallout 4's recommended spec. We estimate 300+ fps at 1080p high (range 300+, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. At 1440p high expect 300+ fps, so every preset holds 60 fps. Its 32 GB of video memory covers the 3 GB the game recommends. Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 300+ | 300+ | 300+ |
| medium | 300+ | 300+ | 300+ |
| high | 300+ | 300+ | 258 |
| ultra | 300+ | 300+ | 206 |
Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: ultra preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: ultra preset
NVIDIA RTX card: turn on DLSS in quality mode before dropping the preset; FSR and XeSS also work if the game lacks DLSS.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce RTX 5090 back.
- With the recommended CPU (Core i7-4790): CPU-limited at 1080p high: about 90 fps instead of 300+.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 5090: 32 GB
- Minimum spec: 2 GB (+30 GB headroom)
- Recommended spec: 3 GB (+29 GB headroom)
