Honestly, just enable VSync in your game's settings. It typically caps the FPS to match your monitor's refresh rate. Simple and effective, no need to mess around with external programs or config files.

So, you wanna cap the wild FPS in Fallout 4? Easy peasy. First up, if you're using an Nvidia graphics card, dive into the Nvidia Control Panel, head to 'Manage 3D settings', and you can set a max frame rate for Fallout 4. For the AMD folks, fear not, the AMD Radeon Settings has a similar feature under ‘Gaming’, ‘Global Settings’. And if those options sound like too much hassle, just download a third-party app like RivaTuner Statistics Server and set that FPS limit to whatever your heart desires.

For the tech-savvy, manually edit the Fallout4Prefs.ini file. You can find it in your Documents, under 'My Games/Fallout4'. Add 'iPresentInterval=1' under the [Display] section to cap the FPS. If you set it to '0', it disables VSync, so be careful with that switch!

Beware, limiting FPS might solve some problems, but it can also introduce input lag. Sometimes, letting your FPS run wild is the lesser of two evils, especially if you're not experiencing any serious issues.
