Smoseph Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 So my computer without a doubt meets the requirements for this game to play it on high but for some reason I can't even play it on lowest without it being extremely choppy. It's a laptop and it hasIntel Core i7 720QM (1.6GHz)6 GBs of memoryNVIDIA GeForce 360M 1 GB of VRAM All my drivers are up to date but for some reason I have trouble running a lot of games even on lowest graphics settings. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuramin Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Are you sure you read the write minimum requirements? You only have 1.6GHz, the minimum req is at least 2GHz dual-core. I think there are other problems as well but uh, that's the most glaring issue I see. Then again, I'm not tech-expert. I just play video games.

Thanks! Does your notebook have 2 GPU and NVidia Optimus? If so, Skyrim runs on the weaker card and not on your 360M. You have to manually set "skyrim.exe" to run on 360M. You can do this via nvidia control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakafeinx Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 go to ur nvidia control panel and go to manage 3d settings, program settings, add skyrim, and choose high-end gpu. that is if u have optimus, but with a gtx 360m, i don't think so. Remember, Skyrim has poor multi-core usage and is more cpu dependant, and thus clock speed is more important than number of cores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
