Tragthemercenary Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 This is not a question about problems with Skyrim, but something that has happened over the last two days. On Tuesday, I took delivery of a new Acer Inspire gaming rig. I know that I should have gone to SSE and played in 64-bit. I've wanted to for years. But I've had so many problems over the years with Skyrim that I had to go there, first. I've added 76 mods to it ... including the High-Resolution Packs, which I've never been able to use, before. In twelve hours of gaming, today, framerates never went under 60 fps, it never stuttered or lagged once, and I had one crash ... when Steam downloaded an update. I went offline, after that, and gameplay has been perfect. The game looks as good as SSE (except for those using ENBs). I've struggled with making Skyrim "stable" since 2014. I've had innumerable problems, crashes, frame-rates dropping to 3-5 fps ... everything you can think of. I had to play on lower difficulties, because on "Legendary", there would be too many swordstrikes (inevitably causing a crash). I had to kill, and quickly. Gentlemen and Ladies, I know that gaming rigs are expensive ... mine cost $1200, minus the extra $300 I paid for a 29" monitor. But all of the problems with Skyrim are gone, and forever. The only other problem is getting incompatible mods in the same lineup. That will crash the game, every time. Witcher 3 is looking pretty good, right about now. Why didn't I get it before? I had 4gb of system RAM. Amazing what 64gb of system RAM, and a NVIDIA 1060, will do for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted21550714User Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 That's great. having an outdated rig that is most of the problem, in some cases , has to drive people crazy when trying to troubleshoot problems with game. Keep her cleaned on the inside, definitely looking into do's and don'ts for cleaning rig, "yeah I'm talking to you static electricity" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never even thought of that, but it can be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted21550714User Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I cleaned mine 2 days ago, i had been wearing shoes with synthetic materials and with those shoes i get a lot of zaps, thank goodness i did a quick research on cleaning cause that was #1 hazard for cleaning computers, if computer is not plugged into a grounded receptacle and you administer a static charge you apparently can do some damage.
