Realvision, Any way to increase my performance? 40FPS in game

[Valorek]

Hello, I have 86 mods installed currently and everything runs fine, and the game looks breathtaking however I'm running about 40 fps just about everywhere according to the enb console. I was wanting to know if there was a way if any to further increase my fps from 40ish to say in the mid 50's and beyond with my setup? I can include a pic of the enb local ini if you need to see what i have set manually.

 

Also this may be irrelevant but I think manually installing this like I did, did not use enboost would i increase performance by using this??

 

I use NMM

kind of off topic but I was also wondering if my game currently runs fine with my current enb, is it safe to install additional texture mods to my game and overwiriting the existing files?

 

Thank you!

Too many unanswered questions to give you any real advice but id say for the most part that graphics card is holding you back.

 

1. Whats your fov?

2. Whats your shadows set at?

3. What are all the mods you're running?

4. Have you shut off enb in game to see what your fps is when its on vanilla?

5. Are you running vsync off with a frame limiter?

 

Lots of things to know before you can start making changes that will get your fps higher.

Yes Hi Firstly thank you for replying to my post and sorry for leaving out additional details!

 

*I am currently running on a v-sync monitor with it enabled 144Hz refresh

 

*with enb off I run skyrim vanilla at 143.3 FPS

 

*The mods I used were listed on this enb page description

*FOV is 85 I set it manually

usual bag of tricks solution - reduce resolution

Honestly I highly doubt it's my card I custom water cooled my entire rig, I run crisis 3 on ultra 1080p at 76+ frames I've always benchmarked with this game because it is demanding.

 

So that's what led me to believe this drop from 143 fps in skyrim to enb running at 40 fps is rather strange.

ENB's are just rough to work with. I do not know what kind of rig it requires. I have a GTX 1070 with 8gb ram and I am getting 25fps when it rains using Vividian best performance ENB. I have turned down everything you can tweak on top of that. I get around 45fps when it is not raining. I even have DDSopted nearly all the mods. I really like the look but it just does not seem worth it all.

Well when i first started modding i was in the same boat except i was around 35 fps and i'll tell you what i did, doesnt mean you have to do what i do but i run snapdragon at 60fps now with around 50 mods.

 

I shut off vsync and put on a fps limiter at 60. I did this not only in game but on my nvidia control panel. Since you run a higher hz refresh monitor your mileage may vary.

I cut my shadows down to high or medium. There's no reason to run ultra its not a huge advantage to you.

I reduced my fov to around 65-70 and that will gain you more fps i mean is it really necessary to see left and right on a wider scale at the cost of fps? To me it wasnt.

I shut off all nonessnetial enb settings like lens, sunglare, sun rays, ambient occlusion which will also shut off ssao which can be an fps drain. You really have to weed out your enb and optimize it to your system.

I used mods like rcrn to get more detail out of small things instead of using bigger mods that had more scripting

I made sure the enb saw that CORRECT amount of vram and buffer size for me its 1042 and 8192 make sure its picking up your accurate sizes of memory.

I cut fades like object fade, actor fade etc in half

I set max ansiotropic at 12 but its not a big deal to run 16

I didnt bother with 4k resolutions and just went with 2k

 

Those are just a few things i did to get my game up to 60 fps but im running a gtx 980ti with 6gb vram so i cant say if any of this will help but it doesnt hurt to try. I could never run skyrim at 30fps just not good enough for my tastes.

 

Oh and i forgot that i killed depth of field, cant stand it and it hurts fps also

Yea same here haha out of all that information you provided that i have not tried is the resolution setting, the anisotropic filter, and I did the same as you did I dont have the 4k version textures I have all 2k stuff.

 

However I might also try to reset that buffer size because i think that might be the culprit

Cutting that fov down will for sure gain you frames but like it said its up to you if seeing left and right is more important than frames
