4GB MCTF - Multi-Core Threading Fix, for short
One thing to note: If you have run the game in the past, you could have older ini files that need deleted first. If this is the case, first delete all files in the "documents/mygames/fallout3", all but the save game folder.
Then do the following.
Step One - Set Your Ingame GPU
Go to Windows10 Settings, System, Display, Graphics settings
Click Browse and goto the game folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Fallout 3
Select the Fallout3.exe
Once selected Fallout3.exe will appear under the "Browse" button.
Select it and click "options", select High performance and save.
(Use the AMD or Nvidia setting if available)
This will set the GPU for you.
You can do the same for any other games you have.
If Just Using an Intel GPU
