Low FPS with ENB (and without)

[prod80]

Unsure then.

All I can contribute more is that I had a GTX560Ti and had similar performance (bit lower because I had more textures going on). Any other tuning I can only do sitting behind the computer to see exactly what is in front of me.

 

Disable texture mods, maybe you have manually installed Ultra high / High quality LODs, I dunno.. those things do not show up in load order or any programs

My issue is not ENB related.

I get only 45 FPS without ENB in this area. When Project ENB is activated, then I just get 15 FPS less.

 

The problem are these 45 FPS without ENB, because my system should handle this even with those texture packs.

But in my opinion 45 FPS are too low.

 

 

 

 

 

You are getting the same average FPS that any other person that owns that card......

 

You may feel that it is too low.... but it is what it is.... A GTX 560 TI ! No amount of VooDoo is going to change that...

Not sure what the point of your rant... but

Yes maybe that is the average fps with 8xAA and 16xAF and ultra shadow

But I'm running that 45 fps with no AA, no AF and medium shadows as you can see in my SkyrimPrefs

So I think without AA, AF and medium shadows 45fps is a bit to low

The above Benchmark runs without mods, without ini tweaks, you run with mods.

 

So if you want to compare you have to remove all mods (not just deactivate - but returning the data folder back to vanilla!) and set the same settings as in the benchmark, then walk from Whiterun to Windhelm using some tool to monitor FPS.

 

I'm telling you already; you'll have the same results. I had the same results as you have on a GTX560Ti, many people have the same results on that card - I dont see why you are convinced your card should somehow perform like a GTX680 pulling 45FPS with texture mods and ENB. Heck I'm more around 42 FPS on my GTX680 running at 1.3Ghz core and 7Ghz RAM. And I use Lite textures as well, nothing over the top high resolutions.

 

You cannot compare Skyrim Vanilla and Modded performance - there's a giant gap between them performance wise.

Because my card did earlier.

I have a few questions.

How CPU intensive is skyrim?

What is a good Program to monitor GPU memory usage?

I have read that the Nvidia 320.xx drivers do not work with ENB, is it only the sunraysor is there more?

What program is recommend for recording ingame video?

I have a few questions.

1. How CPU intensive is skyrim?

2. What is a good Program to monitor GPU memory usage?

3. I have read that the Nvidia 320.xx drivers do not work with ENB, is it only the sunraysor is there more?

4. What program is recommend for recording ingame video?

 

1. Not very, any modern 4 core CPU will do... it uses about 50% on my 2nd gen i5 (2500K) but it's OC-ed to 4.5Ghz

2. Try Skyrim Performance Monitor, you can download here from Nexus

3. 320.xx drivers are incompatible with ENB for now... not sure if NVidia will bother to fix it

4. Anything you like, when using with stuff like ENB/SKSE Dxtory might not work and youll probably need Fraps, but im not that well at home with recording vids anyway - better left question for someone with exp.

Do you know the specifics of how the 320.xx drivers are incompatible? I ask because I am using them and see nothing wrong.

When I tried the 320.xx drivers I got an average fps of ~20 in Ustengraav.

320.xx drivers are not working well with ENB... sun shining through objects for instance:
