I uninstalled optimized textures, turned off anti aliasing, turned off godrays, lowered shadows, no detail is on high, they're all either on low, medium, or off. I close out of all applications before playing and still, it's not going above 12. I have no idea what to do at this point, and I'm not convinced my computer is that bad that I can't even get to 20 FPS but I feel like I'm playing on an eMachines laptop, I really have no idea what to do at this point.

so I'm definitely not super computer savvy, the only games I've ever modded have been the sims if that says anything, so chances are I'm doing something wrong or totally missing something but I bought skyrim special edition a few days ago, finally played it but noticed 1) my mouse is responding about 500 milliseconds after actually commanding my character to move in any direction, and its even worse when I move the camera in first person and its even WORSE while in battle to the point it's almost dizzying to play the game (since I don't have a mouse and using a trackpad is pretty much out of the question for me, I opted to use my xbox one controller connected via USB, and yes I did calibrate it, but using the trackpad and keyboard gives the same laggy result anyway), and 2) my FPS is crap. i'm not sure if the mouse lag has anything to do with that (it probably does) but it wasn't terrible before downloading any optimization mods (which I'll list in a bit) but after downloading beth.ini my FPS was horrible, so I turned on the FPS counter and it wasn't 40 or even 20, it was 12 and this was after I turned off anti-aliasing, Vsync, turned my lock sensitivity as low as it could go since the lag is even worse when its on medium or high, messed around with the lock frame rate, had presets set to medium, then set to high, before doing all of this it was even worse. anyways here are the mods I've installed: No More Radial Blur: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/77791/ Simply Optimized Textures for SSE: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/3858/ and finally beth.ini: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/69787/ and my system specs: https://www.cnet.com/products/dell-inspiron-5559-15-6-core-i7-6500u-8-gb-ram-1-tb-hdd-english/specs/ I know skyrim is definitely on the more intensive side for someone's computer but with my laptop being mid-range, it should at least be able to handle it pretty well. I don't need a full 60 FPS, and honestly I'm not sure with my current system that I'll even be able to get there, but I shouldn't be at 12 FPS, and right now my game quite frankly is unplayable and I really wanna find a fix for this or else I'm worried $40 is gone.
