Suggestions with choosing a variety of mods.

Mods, mods, mods. There are so many mods out there and even more coming out that its almost impossible to decide what to use and install. Thanks to Skyrim I returned in The Elder Scrolls world once more, since Oblivion never gave me what Daggerfall and Morrowind did. After though Skyrim I really wanted to play Oblivion, giving it another chance (4th one) but this time I used mods from Nexus that made the game so attractive, that even after Skyrim I loved it and enjoyed every moment. ( Totally off topic, but I wanted to mention English is not my first language, so I am sorry for any mistakes I make.)

 

Now I am back in Skyrim and decided to use the Nexus once more.. and the more I look through mods, the more I find. I really need some suggestions and of course advice. The specs of my computer are on the topic description but I will post them here too:

 

Intel C2Quad Q9400 o/ced @ 3.2GHz

ATI 4870 with 500MB VRAM

Dual Channel 8GB RAM @ 1333MHz

Game runs windowed @ 1440x810 / High Detail option with Antialising: Off and Anisotropic: 16.

HD, Dawnguard and Hearthfire installed and currently on the latest patch (1.8.151.0.7 / SKSE: 1.6.5 rel 33)

I am not sure if I forgot something.

 

Now the mods. Lets start with the graphic enhancement ones:

 

A highres 2048x Glass armor and weapons retex by Devalinor (Both Armor and Weapon)

A Quality World Map - With Roads

aMidianBorn Book of Silence (The reason I actually cared to look for texture packs for the rest of the materials)

Better Beast Races v2

Better Females by Bella

Daedric Armor and weapon Improvement

Detailed Bodies

Detailed Faces v2

Detailed Lips

Dragon armor and weapons retextures

HiRes Legible Road Signs

Improved NPC Clothing - High Res

Nicer Snowflakes

No More Blocky Faces

No stretching (Full Flavor)

Project Reality - Climates Of Tamriel - Weather - Lighting

Real Ice ALL-IN-ONE

Skill Interface Retexture

Static Mesh Improvement Mod - SMIM

WATER - Water And Terrain Enhancement Redux

I recently added The Skyrim HD 2K because of all the positive comments about it, but I am not 100% sure it works nicely in every place. I have tried it in Whiterun and the area outside.

Skyrim HD - 2K Textures (Lite version. Full works with a small slowdown usually when new areas but it can get slightly annoying when there are battles so I stick to Lite)

 

And lets continue with non graphics ones:

 

Auto Unequip Ammo

Better Sorting

Destructible bottles

Dynamic Merchants

Guard Dialogue Overhaul

JK- Crafting Breakdown -Junk Melting Smelting

Left Hand Rings

Lost Art of the Blacksmith

More Craftables

Run For Your Lives

Skyrim Universal 4GB Memory Patch

SkyUI

The Dance of Death - A Killmove Mod

Weapons and Armor Fixes

 

Blaze Of Eventide

Deadly Dragons

 

Berserk Dragonslayer

Cloaks of Skyrim

Deadly Dragons Armory

Dwarven Dwemer Power Armor

Final Fantasy 7 Crisis Core Buster Sword

Immersive Armors

Lost LongSwords

Ritual Armor of Boethiah

Silver Dragon Armor

Space Wiking Dwemer Exoskeleton

 

Deus Mons

Moonpath to Elsweyr

The Asteria

The Dark Brotherhood Resurrection Part 1

 

Phew, that took me a while. This is all I have running currently with my game right now and plus the 3 unofficial patches. I would have Dovahkiin Hideout too, but currently it causes problems so I have it off. Also I had Realistic Shadows with Customization but I am not one that likes pitch black nights and the 3rd flavor of nights that Project Reality provides, is exactly what I enjoy. Since I already played the game once in Vanilla I am open to mods like "JK- Crafting Breakdown -Junk Melting Smelting" or "Dynamic Merchants" that alter the difficulty of the game making it easier as long as they are not game braking to the point that you can get somethign with almost no effort.
