Can a AMD Radeon 890M run Fallout 4?
The AMD Radeon 890M falls below the minimum requirement for Fallout 4, and its 0GB of VRAM is under the 2GB the game asks for. Expect it to run poorly or refuse to launch.
High preset, upscaling off, paired with a AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D-class processor.

| Ray tracing | — Not supported | Game has no RT | N/A | |
| Upscaling | FSR | Not supported | N/A | |
Recommended settings
For 60 FPS at 1080p
Use the high preset. You already clear 60 FPS on high, so this leaves headroom for dips in busy scenes.
At 1440p
Around 37 FPS on high — this card is happier at 1080p for this title.
At 4K
Around 22 FPS — not a realistic target for this pairing.
VRAM headroom
At 0GB you are under the 3GB this game recommends. Lower the texture setting one notch first — it costs the least visual quality per gigabyte saved.

What FPS will I get?
On high settings with upscaling off: roughly 60 FPS at 1080p, 37 FPS at 1440p and 22 FPS at 4K. These are modelled estimates — see our methodology.
What settings should I use?
Start at the high preset at 1080p.
Will my processor hold this back?
These figures assume a processor fast enough not to limit the card. If yours is older, run the bottleneck calculator — this title leans on the GPU, so a modest CPU deficit costs less.
