(To be honest, RAM & CPU are a close match to replace first) Edited by KuldebarĮrkeil Team â€“ SKYRIM MODS Erkeil, RS (relliosavini), Ramarda If you ever did a incremental upgrade, I'd recommend RAM first, then CPU followed by a video card upgrade. ENBoost (UsePatchSpeedhackWithoutGraphics=true)

But this has to taken in a 'straw that broke the camel's back' approach. Some scripted mods are very well made and do not overwhelm your game. Script lag can ruin a game just as easy as stutters, CTD 's and low FPS can. Obviously, you can't avoid scripts entirely, but keeping a close watch on mods will keep the performance issues down. Keep away from mods that rely on scripts like Forstfall, Immersive Armors, Footprints, etc.)ĮRSO has many mods that are scriptless but add to the game:Įrkeil Team â€“ SKYRIM MODS Erkeil, RS (relliosavini), Ramarda I would keep the list of mods you use to be very selective and short.Ĭonsider overwriting any textures (if any from above) with textures by Gamwich:īethesda Performance Textures - Animals and Creatures by Gamwichīethesda Performance Textures - Armor - Clothes - Weapons by GamwichĪlso Script heavy mods are going to tax the CPU as well. Higher than 1k+ texture mods are just going to slow your system down even with ENBoost because the slower CPU data transfer coupled with 4 GB and only 1 GB VRAM are going to get bogged down.

What you need to do is just reduce overhead wherever you can. I use a lot of 2k textures, but my CPU and RAM has more room and power to jugle it around with the help of ENBoost and SSME. All things being equal, the video card would be fine if it was the weakest link. My system specs: Intel i3570k, Radeon HD6850 1 GB VRAM, 8 GB System RAM, Windows 7/64 bit, SanDisk 120 GB SSD, 1 TB Standard HDDĪs for mods to run on such a system, to be honest the RAM is the most worrisome followed by the CPU. I have the same video card as you, Ghidorah but a newer Intel CPU, which makes a big difference along with 8 GB Ram.
