Hello. I have an r9 390x and I've walked through about 5 different guides telling me how to disable the 60 fps cap on this game.
The first thing I did was went into the steam folder where the game is located and navigated to fallout 4 prefs and edited the line Ipresentinterval=1 and set it to 0. Saved the file and then booted up the game. The game was still locked at 60 fps.
So I look up another guide and it says make sure the prefs doc isn't in read only. So I checked and it wasn't. So that wasn't it.
Right now I was thinking maybe AMD has some sort of setting that is enabling vsync like nvidia does. So I go into the control panel and see that the 60 fps limiter is disabled and triple buffering is off. The only thing that was on basically was surface optimization. Which I doubt is vsync.
Anyways after further exploration into my my documents folder and finding the fallout 4 files there. I open up all of them and the fallout 4 doc and the fallout 4 prefs doc had the ipresent interval line there also, so I set both of them to 0 and made sure all of the docs were not in read only mode.
So I'm like this has to work now. Booted up the game and nope. Still locked at 60 fps.
My next thing was it had to be drivers or something like that. I downloaded the latest crimson drivers ( I think it's 17.3) The one released on the 28th. So anyways after downloading it I uninstall my current drivers via the regular method. Then I launch ddu and uninstall it that way also. (I always make sure everything is cleaned). Afterwards I installed the drivers. Everything goes well. So I launch the game and nope. Still stuck at 60 fps.
I'm not understanding what I'm doing wrong and this is extremely frustrating. if anyone has any suggestions I'll try anything lol.
