Hello fellow Nords, Bosmers, Orcs and so on!!

 

I have some performance issues when using too many graphic mods (no surprise there). My VRAM, RAM or CPU-% never hits the roof though while the GPU-% is close to 100% most of the time (GTX 660Ti). When looking at some areas I get fps drop to about 5 and the GPU-% drops as well. When I look the other way everything goes back to normal (fps = 40ish). You can see this at the screenshot of my performance monitor. GPU temperature maxed 64 degrees at only a couple of minutes playing. Now to the question.

 

Which mods do you think I should remove (or replace maybe?) and which should I keep for the best and most beautiful gaming experience? Or should I try to change some graphic settings instead? I'm currently running the following amongst others:

 

Project ENB (change performance option doesn't help me)

CoT (with weather patch)

Skyrim HD 2K Textures - Full

SMIM

W.A.T.E.R

Lush Trees and Grass (I had Skyrim Flora Overhaul instead before)

Grass on steroids

Xenius Character Enhancement

Bellyaches Animal and Creature Pack

Ultimate HD Fire Effects

Cinematic Fire Effects 2 HD

Weapon retexture project

Project Parallax remastered

 

LOD-mods:

High Quality LODs (medium-res)

Enhanced Distant Terrain 1 & 2

The Skyrim Distance Overhaul

AOF HD Tree LODs 2k

SkyFalls+SkyMills

 

 

Some ini-tweaks for trees and grass:

 

fMeshLODLevel2FadeTreeDistance=7401.3164

fMeshLODLevel1FadeTreeDistance=25000

fMeshLODLevel2FadeDist=10000000

fMeshLODLevel1FadeDist=10000000

iMinGrassSize=85

fGrassStartFadeDistance=7000

fGrassMaxStartFadeDistance=10000.0000

fGrassMinStartFadeDistance=0.0000

bAllowLoadGrass=0

bAllowCreateGrass=1

 

 

Cheers!

well...

enhanced distand terrain - drops on Performance
ENB does the same- maybe try an easier one like "quietcool enb"
HD textures - drops on performance
ultimate fire-does a little

i hope you disabled all system/hardware related msaa, fxaa, aa, ao if you running enb.
