    For Fallout 3 it automatically chose High settings for me. I haven't had any performance issues using those default settings.

    I find Fallout 3 runs a bit better than Mass Effect. On my stock CPU P-6831FX I (think I) put everything all the way up, but I can't quite remember. For Fallout 3 I have everything maxed, but no AA (the AA doesn't look that great for it). It has some performance hiccups like Oblivion but for the most part is very smooth.
