How do I check whether my PC can run Fallout 4?

Use the check on this page. It reads your graphics card, CPU threads and memory from the browser and shows the preset, resolution and expected frame rate — no download and no sign-up.

What frame rate should I aim for in Fallout 4?

60 fps at your monitor's native resolution. Lower the preset first — running below native resolution is more noticeable than reduced shadows.
