Fallout 3 goes gold, PC requirements detailed


Good day, Vault inhabitants. We're happy to report that Fallout 3 has gone gold for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC. For those of you currently not stealing the game -- yup, it's up on torrent sites according to many tips, which can stop being sent now, thank you -- the actual release will be the week of Oct. 28.

Console owners can obviously just pop in the disc (PS3 has no install, we asked), but we've placed the PC system requirements after the break.


PC Requirements:

Minimum Chuga-chuga System Requirements:

  • Windows XP/Vista
  • 1GB System RAM (XP)/ 2GB System RAM (Vista)
  • 2.4 Ghz Intel Pentium 4 or equivalent processor
  • Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 256MB RAM (NVIDIA 6800 or better/ATI X850 or better)
Recommended Real System Requirements:
  • Intel Core 2 Duo processor
  • 2 GB System RAM
  • Direct X 9.0c compliant video card with 512MB RAM (NVIDIA 8800 series, ATI 3800 series)
  • Supported Video Card Chipsets at the Fallout site.
