Valorek Posted December 24, 2016 Author Share Posted December 24, 2016 (edited) 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 scriptingI 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 halfI set max ansiotropic at 12 but its not a big deal to run 16I 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 alsoYea 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 I absolutely concur with what you are saying! I will definetly adjust that FOV I did adjust the fade settings in game and reduced the filtering and set my appropriate ram usage and buffer I ended up gaining about 6 FPS which may not be much but I'm very satisfied with that! and I wanted to personally thank you for your time.

twiztedmongoloid Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 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. At what resolution? My 970 was getting 35-55 outside at 1080p with the entire skyrim revisited setup...350 mods. Very smooth with dips into 30's on intense scenes. OP...your enb local is incorrect. You have a 3gb card but have video memory set to 4096..... use this to configure your enb local correctly. also reducing shadows and certain view distances can greatly improve performance. But your memory is a BIG reason for your issues im sure. http://wiki.step-project.com/Guide:ENBlocal_INI/Memory also be careful with texture sizes so you dont max out your vram FOV from my experience has a minimal performance impact. in addition the above i recommend using this to optimize your INI files and ensure you dont have any harmful edits http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/69787/? I use it myself. The "high" preset is what is recommended. Author said ultra setting is for screen archers. And trust me its demanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people play at 90 and i can tell you that switching from 90 to the default (75) does have a noticeable fps difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztedmongoloid Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 yeah but not 20 fps lol. MAYBE 5 if that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
