OKAY GUYS I'M GOING TO FREAKING EDIT THIS AND ADD THE LINKS WHEN SKYRIMNEXUS STARTS WORKING. IT KEEPS SAYING IT CAN'T CONNECT. IN AROUND 3 HOURS IT WIll BE ON HERE.
Hello, are you like me? I have an expensive computer, yet my Skyrim runs around 5 FPS. Well I'm here to show you how to fix this and gain up to 20 FPS.
1. Windows Tweaks.
2. CCC
3. Game Booster
4. Settings
5. Mods
6. Skyrimprefs.ini tweaks
1. Go into your start menu and right click on computer. When you right click, click on "properties." Now click on the left side of the system and click "Advance Settings." When you click on "Advance Settings" click on "Advance" then click "Performance." Now when you click on it, it should say that windows is choosing what's best. What you need to do is click on "Best performance" and then apply. You will look like an older version of windows, but you should gain 4-6 FPS from it. Another way is to go to Control Pannel and click on power options. Go from whatever you're at to High performance. Another way is to update your video driver. If you're ATI go to Amd's website. If your Nvidia then go to Nvidia's website. Just search Driver and you should find a program that installs a better video driver.
2. What you want to install is CCC (CC Cleaner). It deletes all old stuff that you don't need. It deletes old programs, internet browser, recycle bin, etc. The link is here. Now just click install and run it. When you run it click run cleaner and watch a whole bunch of MB disappear.
3. Another program to install is Game Booster 3. The link is here. What this does is shut downs start up programs and lots of stuff taking out your RAM. Just click to game booster and watch your PC Gain 42% perormance.
4. What you want to do for settings is go onto the skyrim launcher and click "options." Now click on the thing that says 16:9 and change it to 4:5. Change resolution to 1024x768. Now click on Off for both of the bottom 2 and change over to advance. Now everything but Decal and Textures to low. Turn FXAA off, you don't need it.
5. Go to Skyrimnexus.com and search for performance, and install all of them that have 100+ endorsements. All of them are different for computers. Mine is different then my laptop, as I gained less FPS then what my laptop did. A good mod is Skyboost and Fps background. Fps background is a program in skyrimnexus that causes your command prompt to make your performance increase. Don't forget curse has mods too. There will be a d3d9 file that makes your game run A WHOLE LOT FASTER, but if you got a non gaming computer... I'm sorry to tell you this... but it will lower your FPS from 15 to 3. Other then that it will raise it 15 to 35.
Search d3d9 in Curse mods.
6. Go to skyrimprefs.ini on both My Documents and Skyrim folder in your SteamApps. Change everything about shadows to half its amount, or 0. Change bGamepadEnable=1 to 0. There's many tutorials, but I only know these 2. Feel free to post more skyrim tweaks below.
THANKS
