*Fallout 3 graphics performance in-depth*

http://www.techspot.com/article/125-fallout3-performance/

Recently we looked at how various ATI and Nvidia based graphics cards fared
in Far Cry 2 and the results were somewhat unexpected as we found that
mid-range graphics cards were capable of playing this game in all of its
visual glory. Today we have yet another impressive new game called Fallout
3, which has had the same level of hype and anticipation surrounding it as
Far Cry 2 did during the entire year.

Fallout 3's story is interesting enough and should keep fans of previous
Fallout games happy. Still, we are more interested in showing you how your
graphics card should perform in this game. Fallout 3 was built using the
Gamebryo engine that has also powered other popular titles like The Elder
Scrolls IV, Empire Earth 3, and Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning.

As you will appreciate in our visual quality comparison section of this
article, Fallout 3 is a striking looking game and the recommended hardware
requirements are quite high. Actually they seem much more realistic than
what we usually see from developers in their official recommendations.
