Im trying making sure I can play Fallout 4 without having to worry about my PC lagging. Since I personally don't know alot about computers, I would love to get some advice from more experienced people!
These are my current specs:
GPU: GeForce GTX 760
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 8 GB Ram (7.93 GB usable)
Current resolution: 1920 x 1080, 60Hz
Driver version: 353.62
Operating system: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
If there is any more information you need just let me know.

Im willing to spend around 400-500 euro. Also im going to reinstall windows, and my drivers which will hopefully help.
I have crossfire on my motherboard aswell which I can use to get another graphics card. Although I have no idea how that works.

Willing doesn't sound too convincing. h3lloj3llo has a good point with your system being pretty decent already. I would wait for the game to come out honestly and then go from there. If FO4 requires more power, then order a new GPU and play for a day or 2 until it comes.
If you do not need it, then you saved a bunch of money.....for things you can buy with gyros...

I wasn't able to play the witcher 3 without lag. This is why I wasn't sure if my PC would be able to handle Fallout 4

IF you have played any of the Fallout 3 or NV, you know they go more for immersion and world size and what not over textures and graphics, but this one may be completely different.
If you look at a few other games that came out in 2010 like NV you can see that there were a few that had better graphics, but the world size wasn't close.
I would say put it in a rainy day fund and wait and see. Some companies release PC requirements before release as well, so we will see.

I like to run a few programs when I am working on my computer. You might want to think about adding some more memory. Just an idea, I run 32 GB on my system.
