Radiation 4 Measured to Play What Configurations Are Required for the Best "Scavengers" Game on Earth

Although Xiao Bian has recently become a dog, it is also a writing activity. However, at the end of this year's game, Xiao Bian is fascinated by players who are affectionately known as “捡 trash 4” or “picker 4”. "Radiation 4". As a Bethesda-developed role-playing game "Radiation" series fourth work, the development team is "The Elder Scrolls 5" the original crew. Items, gameplay adjustments, character ideas, and other elements that will be seen in the new game. The game is set to Boston after the end of the day, and Summerville, Cambridge, Arlington will all appear in the game.

As an annual masterpiece, what kind of configuration do you need to play with such a "scavengers" game on earth? Let us first look at the configuration requirements given by the official.


Minimum configuration:

OS: Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit OS required)

Processor: Intel Core i5-2300 2.8 GHz/AMD Phenom II X4 945 3.0 GHz or equivalent

Memory: 8 GB RAM

Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 550 Ti 2GB/AMD Radeon HD 7870 2GB or equivalent

Hard Drive: 30 GB available space


Recommended configuration:

OS: Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit OS required)

Processor: Intel Core i7 4790 3.6 GHz/AMD FX-9590 4.7 GHz or equivalent

Memory: 8 GB RAM

Graphics: NVIDIA GTX 780 3GB/AMD Radeon R9 290X 4GB or equivalent

Hard Drive: 30 GB available space


As with most games, the minimum radiation 4 configuration is fairly close to the people. I5-2300 CPU and 550Ti graphics card, as well as 8G memory. At present, a i5-4200H 8G memory with 9 series 950M alone significant, so that the performance of the weaker CPU performance and strengthen the graphics game is also only 5,000 yuan. For example, Asus Flight Fortress FX War Thunder Collector's Edition 15.6-inch game book .

Then as a senior game player, I believe we all know what the so-called minimum configuration is all about. There is a fundamental difference between playing and playing. The former is nothing more than to let you enter the game. As for what the game experience is completely out of consideration, so let's take a look at the recommended configuration.


I7 4790's CPU, graphics card GTX 780 or AMD Radeon R9 290X, is still 8G of memory, this is not the notebook can Hold configuration. In the DIY configuration, this configuration also belongs to the high-end configuration (of course the price is also very expensive). So let's test it today. Under the recommended configuration, what is the effect of Radiation 4?


testing platform:

CPU: Intel Core i7 4790k @ 4.5GHz

Graphics Card: Asus Raptor STRIX-GTX970

Memory: DDR3 2400 16G

Motherboard: ASRock Z97 E6

Power Supply: Antec EA 550W


Due to the absence of specified accessories, only a set of similar configurations can be carried. The 4790K in the test platform is slightly better than the 4790 after the frequency is overclocked, and the 4G version of the GTX970 on the graphics card is only slightly better than the 3G version of the GTX780. Memory itself has little effect on this game, and it guarantees enough memory to run on the line.


There was too much nonsense in the front, and we went directly to the actual measurement.

The first thing to note is that radiation 4 is the default lock frame. In a high-performance configuration environment, the default lock at 60 frames is a very painful thing (of course, there are many games locked even more painful 30 frames, simply lost), the modification method is in your C drive directory Locate the Documents/my games/Fallout4 folder, locate the Fallout4Prefs.ini file, and change the iPresentInterval=1 parameter in the file to iPresentInterval=0.

After the modification is completed, you will find that the number of frames in the menu, too long animation, etc. begin to burst the table. Of course this is not a game screen, so there is nothing Luan to use.

First look at the display effect, because the game itself provides fewer display effect setting options, so nothing too much to say, fully open enough.


As for the number of frames tested, we chose the sheltered hills with unique features as the test scene.

In the same visual angle, with the change of the time in the game, the number of frames dropped from 89 to 84 frames from the early morning to noon. It can be seen that the effect of “Radiation 4” ambient light effect on the number of game frames is still Relatively large.

In the outdoor fighting environment of the same time period, the number of display frames did not drop significantly. It can be seen that the battle scene has little effect on the actual results. Of course, because of the test scene, there are no enemies. If there are more complicated enemies or scenes with model maps, the number of frames may still be affected.

In the early morning or late afternoon when the outdoor scene is not well-lit, the GTX970 graphics card can generally hold 90 to 100 frames.

In an indoor environment with less display content, it easily exceeds one hundred frames and generally floats around 120 to 150 frames.

Of course, radiation 4 also has its disadvantages in terms of display. It is known that this is a scavenging + sandbox game, but a large number of artificial textures have a significant impact on the number of frames. In the same position, in the face of a large number of self-made scenes and two scenes facing the natural scene in the game, the number of frames is more than 30 frames. If the performance of the graphics card itself is poor, the sudden drop in the number of frames will result in a variety of cards.


Digression:


There were also foreign player tests before, and the speed of the game engine for Radiant 4 was actually closely related to the number of frames. When the number of frames reaches 144 FPS, you will feel that the game is 20-30% faster. When the number of frames reaches 250 FPS, the game speed is more than 2 times faster. This is a very troublesome thing, because the game speed directly affects your actual game content in the game, of course. After all, to reach the horror height of 250 frames still requires a very high-end hardware configuration, the average player can not consider this issue. If a high-level computer player encounters a situation in which the speed of the game runs away, you can set the lock frame to restore normal game speed.
