KarthGalin Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 This doesn't seem to change my FPS at all, I have been using SKSE with the new interface for a while, tried this plugin and can't even say it makes a 1-2 FPS difference in Whiterun. But I was already at 99% GPU (GTX 560 ti 448) usage and 50% or so CPU usage, so maybe thats why! Seems like if you are running the game at 1080P or lower, its your CPU that matter most, but once you go to higher than 1080p (I am running 2560X1440) the GPU matters the most again, also running a i5 2500k clocked at 4.4... I know this mod is supposed to improve CPU usage so I guess it makes sense if I was not at 100% that it wouldn't help me at all. Yeah, like anything else, if you increase the graphics settings in a way that loads down the GPU and not your CPU, your GPU becomes the bottleneck and improvements in CPU performance become much less noticeable. I run an i7 920 @ 3.8 GHz and Gtx 580 at 1920x1080 (+mods), and I recorded a significant (~30%) improvement at the top of the steps in front of Dragonsreach when I tested TESVAL. In scenes that stress my GPU I saw almost no benefit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
