    So I only got Fallout 3 recently for my PC, and then only a few days ago I got New Vegas. I started noticing something recently(it wasn't always like this) on my New Vegas game, I first noticed the graphics problem with my pip boy, the screen of the pip boy was fine, but the rest of the pip boy was blurry and looked like , i couldn't even read the "items/data/status" words. The rocks are blurry, the textures of the people look like . I didn't know why this was happening, the graphics are all set to high and ultra, and it wasn't always this way, when I played fallout 3 it looked fine! But when I went back to see if the same thing was present in Fallout 3, it was the exact same problem. Why has it changed? I will post pics in a minute.

    Any ideas? I'm pretty bummed out over it to be honest. I was enjoying the game until this happened out of nowhere. The funny thing is, I seemed to ignore it for a while and then I realized something was up.


    Anyone? lol I honestly can't play the game like this.

    Jeez, give us some time. We are a multi-timezone community. Expect to be answered in a day rather than a few hours. I'm not an expert, but have you tried setting the settings to default again?

    All right. Maybe the problem is you've actually put your settings too low?

    You might want to try uninstalling Fallout 3 then, see if it still doesn't work. If it still doesn't work then i'd recommend trying to re-install New Vegas.

    Doesn't look like it should
    Try uninstalling Fallout 3 then, copy your save if you want to.

    Gigabytes on a card don't dictate performance.
