Skyrim low FPS (LE, Oldrim) with good rig and no mods

[lolcocks123]

I just did a fresh install of Skyrim. I want to mod but haven't begun doing it yet.

 

My rig is:

AMD FX-8350

16 GB DDR3 RAM

NVIDIA 1060 6 GB

1080p

Skyrim is on an SSD.

 

 

I just decided to give it a whirl.

 

In the cart being carried to my execution, I am getting 40 FPS.

In Whiterun I am getting 30 FPS.

 

Reducing object fade distance to 1 helps sometimes to achieve 60 FPS, but in whiterun, it's still at 30 FPS.

Why is this happening? My GPU and CPU are barely getting used. I even tried with a fresh save game. The results were the same in Whiterun.

 

Is this some kind of an Oldrim limit? I see most heavily modded Korean streamers getting 60 FPS all the time, everywhere on Oldrim, what configuration are they using?

 

Any solution?
