Got and installed Fallout 4. Tried to run on Ultra settings and my GPU fan ramped up to 100% and locked up about 40FPS. Might be getting an upgrade soon...

It's not, which is why you're not running Fallout 4 on max.And I know some of you don't think my PC is much
Thanks for the tip. I'm getting a solid 60FPS on low quality and the graphics on low isnt that bad at all I'll definitely try the shadow thing too.Turn down shadow distance to medium. Helps a LOT. Godrays also destroys AMD cards and hits Nvidia cards pretty hard too.
Whatever you do, please don't crossfire it with your 6950.Gonna start saving up for a new PSU, a Radeon R9 380 OC edition, and 16GB of new RAM.
Lol I know it won't work but just curious, what would happen if I did? Theoretically of course.Whatever you do, please don't crossfire it with your 6950.

It won't work.
Even on low quality my poor old 6950 goes to 100% and my FPS stays around 40 during all gameplay, I hit 61 sometimes though. My PC runs so hot on Fallout 4 I had to put a fan in my office... I began sweating because my PC was running so hot from the game.At the minute little fettling and my cards are running about 70% on each GPU with fallout 4. Which keeps me at 120-144fps until you get into the cities where fps just takes a dump. faster than a single GPU but obviously not a propper SLI profile. Nvida are bringing one out soon, well they have stated so anyway. AMD however, could be waiting years for a CF profile lol
bring me up to my max 16GB
I think you should overclock too. If memory serves me correctly the 1090T and the 1100T were both good overclockers. They may have even been multiplier unlocked - I know the Black Editions were. I'm not sure which X6 you have but again if memory serves me correctly they were basically the same but the 1100T was stock clocked a little higher (somebody correct me if I'm wrong, haven't like at Phenom II X6s since about 2010 or 2011!)Even on low quality my poor old 6950 goes to 100% and my FPS stays around 40 during all gameplay, I hit 61 sometimes though.

But again, I got the PC for free, and I'm happy with it, and it was a kick-ass rig for awhile, but alas, it's time to upgrade the Beast. I plan to get an R9 380, a new PSU, and 8Gb more RAM to bring me up to my max 16GB using my Xmas moneys. Might watercool it if I'm not broke by the end of this
