Hey there! It sounds like you're dealing with a tricky issue with Fallout 4's performance. After updating your drivers, the game still caps at around 75 fps. Since you've confirmed no changes were made in-game before the update, it might be related to driver settings or system configurations. Try checking if other games run smoothly on the same settings, and see if adjusting the graphics options helps. Let me know what you find!

Perhaps, but first I need to look into it and second, I prefer keeping my system current so I can address the issue directly.

Avoid exceeding 60fps in FO4. Generally, higher frame rates can cause problems.

The Fallout titles are awkwardly linked to frame rates, built for 30 to 60 frames per second, but performance drops below that and the experience becomes unstable.

Fallout 4 received updates to work with high refresh rate displays quite some time back. Consider using Nvidia Inspector (download separately) @Nashiwa

Trust the numbers, maintain 75fps for smooth playback. Check out YouTube videos on high frame rate physics for Fallout 4.

It wasn't. You can opt for a high refresh rate, but not a high framerate. Testing showed it works well at around 80-90 fps without issues.

I’ve played more than 20 hours at 144 fps without any issues. I’ll remember that. Earlier, I realized my VSync wasn’t set to adaptive, so I adjusted it and everything returned to 144 fps. It was a nice experience too—I even tried turning it off completely, but Steam’s FPS counter still showed 2500 fps!

The issues aren't as severe as in Skyrim. However, they still exist. Improvements include quicker character movement and enhanced physics responsiveness. If you haven't seen these changes yet, just keep going as is.
