“Fail a hack attempt and get locked out of a computer? Not if you're a computer whiz! With this perk, you get a second chance at any computer you were previously locked out of.”— In-game description
Computer Whiz is a perk in Fallout 3.
Effects
With this perk, you get a second chance at hacking any computer you were previously locked out of.
Notes
As with the Infiltrator perk, Computer Whiz has debatable value. Any hacking attempt can be aborted prior to failure, after which the security will reset and it can be hacked again without consequence. In this manner, no computer will ever end up being locked out.
