Here's what GameDebate has to say: "Fallout 4 comes with some demanding requirements. Due to its open world nature a powerful CPU quad core, such as the i5 2300 or its Phenom II equivalent is needed. However, on the graphics side you can use the now aging Nvidia GTX 550ti or the significantly stronger Radeon HD 7870 by AMD. For the optimal Fallout 4 experience a new high end i7 processor or the strongest of the FX processors by AMD are recommended. Couple that with a GTX 780 or R9 290X GPU. It is important to note that 8GB of RAM is necessary for a smooth Fallout 4 experience, but you may be able to get away with just 6GB of system memory."
It seems you would need to upgrade your CPU to get higher performance

"i5 2300 or its Phenom II equivalent"

860K is much stronger than either of those. For most games it's faster than the FX CPUs due to more decoders per core. GTX 950 is a good match for that CPU, though various parts of the game will demand either a stronger graphics card or CPU, but same can be said for just about any configuration.

Why would you expect to be able to run ultra settings with an entry level CPU and entry level GPU?

They are good specs for a five or six hundred dollar machine, but the games you are playing are very new and very demanding. Lower the individual settings until it is playable to your tastes. You will be surprised I bet you can keep mostly high settings. I hear that turning down or turning off the god rays can really help in Fallout. You can probably also overclock CPU/GPU/RAM quite a bit for free performance boost.
