Most ENB's can tank even the best of systems!

What are your computer specs?

Neil79 · 3 Feb 2014 at 14:16

I might install skyrim again and test out my new MSI Radeon R9 280X Gaming Edition! I've been running skyrim on a 660 that's not even a ti

Updated as I'm back in the world of Skyrim

Sigh, I hate it dropping to 50/55 fps with all the texture mods in towns, the point of getting the 280x was to stop that! Also, is there any OSD that works with ENB's?

I don't think so. I limit mine to 60, but I never go really go below that indoors. Outdoors, I frequently see 35-40, usually it's 45+. That's with all of the core mods and 95% of the extended mods of STEP + RealVision ENB however.

Ah I see, np

I've improved the game big time by using "Dynamic Vsync". Have not tested an ENB yet

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 15:56

After testing a number of ENBs including Realvision I'm going to have to go with COT that isn't an ENB. Granted it's nice having certain lighting aspects and DOF with Realvision but I can't stand anything under 55fps. In towns the frame rates drop to about 43 and 54+ inside.

There is also a depth of field mod that you can get that also looks good and doesn't tank your system

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 16:40

Hmmm haven`t noticed that yet but will keep an eye on it

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 18:45

Awesome and works without ENB as well, will give it a try and untick nights esp

Good find

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 18:54

Added Expanded Snow Systems and Supreme Storms oh and that Patch

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 20:33

Enhanced INI files have been updated to OP, recommended on Skyrim Nexus. Has improved my Skyrim performance

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 21:13

Added " SKYRIM CRASH ON START UP FIX " video, this is really really helpful for those that are having trouble with any mods causing skyrim not to start up. My Skyrim was working fine till I did a new game and it kept on crashing every damn time.

It's now fixed thanks to that video

Neil79 · 17 Feb 2014 at 22:16

Awesome, will test asap!

Cheers

Have removed Skyrim Texture Overhaul for Landscape, it makes everything way way too sharp and doesn't fit some towns. Too perfect!

EDIT : Yep that's better! Just uninstalled it through nmm, deactivated Skyrim HD, re-activated Skyrim HD and made sure that it only overwrote the landscape textures and clicked no on everything else

I've faffed about with that Franks ENB to make it a bit less boring.

Nice thanks, any screenies :cool:

Neil79 · 19 Feb 2014 at 14:11

Cheers CaptainRAVE!

I'm just about to add the sound overhaul to the list as well which really improves the sound effects like footsteps. However the patch is needed for COT

Haven't bothered with Boss and if I have a save that wont load for some stupid reason I just load a new game, save. Load that new game every time then jump on the last save that didn't work and it does

Boss causes no end of issues, it screwed my last Skyrim up, never again!

ps I'm really happy with my set up now, looks lush, great insides and out and Riften looks awesome with no ENB either
