Back of the Box

The game places the player in the role as a courier. The courier, while delivering a package with unknown contents, is found unconcious in a shallow grave after a failed assassination attempt by an unknown assailant. The courier is treated for injuries by a local caregiver, Doc Mitchell. Thereafter the player enters into character creation (defining skills and attributes, name, gender, age and appearance) before investigating the assassination attempt, recovering the stolen package, and exploring the world
The Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System, or V.A.T.S., will have the ability to use new special attacks Usage of certain melee weapons will trigger unique attack animations. For example, using 9-Iron (a golf club) would show up as "Fore" and sends the enemy reeling for a period. Also Obsidian Entertainment has added the ability to use the ironsight on all guns and rifles.

Fallout New Vegas System Requirements [pc]

Fallout New Vegas Recommended System Requirements

Steamworks digital platform (Games for Windows is the certification)

Processor: Dual Core 2Ghz (enhanced for multi-core)

Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 6 Series or similar (ATI 1300 minimum)

You will notice that above the system requirements image is the question and answer taken from the Official FAQ. As part of the answer they state that these requirements are the recommended.

Now it seems to us that these recommended requirements are pretty low. Admittedly the game engine came out a couple of years back, Fallout 3. We will get in touch with our contact and double check this and report back.

You should get 60FPS on high settings, no AA, with only minimal lag when there are too many effects/objects, but that will happen really rarely :)

I'll get the system soon, my question:
Can I run it on 60+ frames on ultra?
Full AA and AF etc.?
I know it'll run smooth, but 60+ fps
seem likely or not?
