Question

Could the HD 630 run Fallout 4?

Jun 20, 2018 6:25PM PDT

Hi, I wanted to test out desktops and see whether or not it could run it, now you migh5 say go check it out yourself, but I'm just wondering simply from research from a product if it could run it at prolly 720-768p low settings medium or low shadows and medium textures disable eye candy. If you can give me recommended settings with good fps (at least 27 but avg of 30 or so), and please don't just say "oh it's a iNtEl iNtERgRaTreD GrApHicS it won't load let alone play it" because I've seen that it can run so thanks in advance.Pre-loaded Operating System

I have a prior gen i5 and it can run Fallout 4 at lowest settings and will fall to about 1 frame a setting in busy areas. Definitely runs. Not enjoyable.

Yes it will run it.
Low settings and 720p should get you into the 30fps range.
Be sure that ram is set up as dual channel.

Its 12gb which is 1x8 and 1x 4 which is not dual channel how many fps would it get at 12 gb ram 1x 8 1x4?
