That's far better than I thought a single GTX 970 could push. Have you noticed any issues with the Vram? The memory issue used to be a nightmare for me, but since the memory patch I've not had any crashes from it. I can't say how well it holds up beyond the 1920x1200 I play on now, but I recall it going to 400MB without any issues. Were as before it would crash at 256MB every time.

I'm curious, do we have any 2k and 4k benchmarks for a heavily moded Skyrim? To say ENB+Textures+Mesh+Grass+Tree+ect? I'm trying to decide between going with a 2k or a 4k monitor once the 980 TI and 390x/395x2 are released, but I have little idea if 4k would be too ambitous of a goal when I have 400+ mods (merged) installed that destroys performance.

The 970 is around twice as fast as the 680 from the benchmarks I've seen.

This has worked for me every time I get a CTD upon starting up, and every time it was due to missing dependents. Before Mod Organizer it's the best way I've found to isolate problematic mods.

I was under the impression that more vram helped with the performance impact of large textures.

A great question. I'm waiting to see the price and performance enhancements before I buy two 970s and I'd love to know too.

Does anyone know if it's possible to change the year the game starts in? (If there is already a mod that does this I'd be thankful for a link to it! :) )

I'm having the same problem, and it seems to be a recent one. I used an older version of RealVision (Awesome ENB btw) and CoT+Enhanced Lights and FXs and it worked just fine, but a few days ago I updated the ENB and now I have vanilla bright nights.

Problem: Game is crashing when it turns 6PM regardless of how it happens. I can be waiting in real time, sleeping, or fast traveling. System Specs: Vista, GTX 680 4 GB, I7 CPU 920 @2.67GHz 6GB RAM Free hardrive space 600GB out of 1.2 TB Game info: Legendary Edition, all DLC/Patches NMM: 0.47.3 SKSE: 1.6.16 (Latest non-alpha/beta) Sorting Tool: Loot Sorry if I come off as a bit aggravated. For the last six days I have been fighting Skyrim and have spent roughly six hours each day trying to problem solve various things and reinstalling everything to ensure a smooth game. After everything seemed to work I started a new game. It ran beautifully, right until Alduin showed up. No sooner had Tullius said “What in Oblivion” the game crashed. Again and again, no matter what I tried. Same point. Finally I installed an alternate start mod and began in another location in the Rift, and that seemed to let me bypass the problem. For about a week of in-game time Skyrim ran well, but for some reason I’ve now ran into a constant crash. As soon as the game reaches 6:00pm it will crash, regardless of what I may try to skip it; fast travel, sleeping, waiting, etc. The first thing that came to mind was that something may be spawning or resetting, but I’ve played with 90% of these mods before and never ran into this issue (The other 10% shouldn’t have anything to do with it, crafting mods and the like.) But I’m no expert when it comes to such things, so I was hoping someone might know what the cause is. I’ve tested it on other save files and while they don’t crash at 6pm, they do crash at other points at roughly the same date. I'd really appropriate some insight if anyone would. I feel like I'm about to pull my hair out over this. x.x
