Hardware compatiblity/performance reports

[Guest nvidiot]

System Specs:

 

* OS : Windows 10 (Build 1607 aka Anniversary)

* CPU: Intel Core i5 750 @ 4.0 GHz

* Motherboard: ASUS P7P55D

* RAM: 8GB DDR3 @ 1600MHz

* SSD: Kingston V300 240GB

* GPU: Gigabyte R9 390 G1 Gaming 8GB

 

Impressions: Rock solid 60 fps throughout skyrim no matter the intensity of action. This is with 10 or so mods installed (including texture packs)...

 

I disabled the in-game Vsync and enabled AMD's frame target control to 60 fps, as in-game vsync dropped my fps alot. Capping the fps via crimson fixed the fps spikes for me and GPU temp and usage are nominal (65-70C temps max for GPU). CPU usage is also consistent as well as compared to Original Skyrim, 40-50% usage across all cores (max temps hitting no more than 60C).

 

Overall I'm very satisfied and impressed with the increased stability and smoothness the switch to 64-bit provides. 

 

EDIT: Using 1080p resolution, GPU usage hovering around 3.3-3.5GB VRAM

GPU: EVGA GTX 1060 SC

OS: Windows 10 

RAM: 8GB

Motherboard: H87M-plus

CPU: Intel i5-4440 @3.10 GHz

 

@1920x1080

 

I assume it runs at 60fps (see below)

 

@2560x1440 

 

Steady 60fps at all times

 

@3840x2160

 

Around 35fps at all times outside, around 38fps inside : /

 

What part of my pc should I upgrade for a more impressive fps counter @3840x2160? RAM, CPU or Motherboard?

Why would you ever upgrade mobo for more perfomance in games. Upgrade GPU and CPU. only upgrade MOBO for a newer CPU like Kaby Lake coming next year. 

 

 

Wow upgrading your MoBo for more performance ._. now I've heard everything.

 

 

I meant RAM or CPU & Motherboard... My motherboard supports up to LGA 1150 but I can consider switching to LGA 1151

 

 

Well that would be useless, because the jump from haswell/broadwell to skylake/cabylake isn't worth it and after that there will be a new socket so... just stay with 1150.

 

Kinda tautology but, I'll do some more research on skylake/kabylake...  Is it really that bad?

 

 

Its the same performance as Haswell so you are pretty much spending more money for the same performance.

Not bad so far, need a monitor upgrade.

 

Specs:

Motherboard: gigabyte z170 gaming 5 motherboard

 

Processor: i3-6100 overclocked to 4.5 Ghz and liquid cooled

 

RAM: Corsair vengeance 8GB DDR4 300mhz 

 

GPU's: 2x 970 GTX xtreme gaming OC edition runing both 500mhz higher clock

 

Max everything at 2k res not dropping below 120 FPS in caves and 112 in tam. like I said need a better monitor!

Same problem right? Same old Skyrim right?  Don't bring up ENB and texture mods in Hardware compatiblity topic.

????????????

if not compared to the old with the same mod  ? what mean of compare ?

that's to try to make sse look better than what it really to get more people to switch to update more mods for them

 

tfc and go under the ground, that small river have a huge fps impact (more with bigger water textures)

you are wasting a lot of fps rendering stuff you can't even see

We want know hardware and performance, you adding unknown variables can reduce or destroy frame rate in heartbeat. You see frame counter on top right side both pictures?

It would be interesting to see what results do you get when turning off the game's vsync. 

I did a test running from Helgen to Riverwood. With the default vsync on I get 45-60 fps. When turned off I get 75-110 fps, most of the time around 95-100. 

Indoors I got to about 170fps.

The game runs just fine for me, FPS locked at 60 and no CTD .

There was a windows 10 installed on this system but it cannot run without errors, freezes and crashes on this system (not skyrim related), so I revert back to windows 7.

All settings ultra and it is absolutely very stable at 60 fps

Played over 4 hours without one single crash or lag, although playing with 20 mods on it. Opening doors to other cells happens in seconds, no papyrus lag. Framerate is capped to 60 FPS and only in huge cities with lot of action around it will drop to 45 FPS. Hardware isn't maxed out, less heat and fan speed as with the unigine performance test programs.

Game defaults to low settings. Manually turned shadows all the way down and removed grass. Had to turn the view distances down. Mods:

 

UNP

2K (SD textures) skins - 3 or 4 types

Some armor mods *cough*

CoT-SE (no difference with or without)

Assorted gameplay mod - Auto Unequip ammo, stones of Barenziah, Paarthurnax

Low-res particles and low poly grass

XPMSE and FNIS, plus animations included in XPMSE

Apachii hair

KS hairdos

SG brows

BBLS

ReShade recolours only.

 

Detail: low, with AO and FXAA enabled. My ini files are heavily tweaked to allow the game to run at all.

 

2560x is out of the question. at 1920x, game is just playable but FPS drops occasionally to 20 and below in outdoor areas when looking very far into the distance. Otherwise stays between 23 and 26.

 

Indoors is solid 40-45fps indoors anywhere. I put about 10 hours into the game yesterday in the spirit of 'how low can you go'. Without Reshade additional 2-3fps outdoor and 5-8 indoors.

 

Oldrim without ENB gives at least 5-7fps more with texture detail set to high, a minimal install of SMIM and a ton of 2k skin mods (not other custom textures in this potato). I still think Newrim looks a bit better overall though, apart from some unsightly neck seams on hitherto seamless textures.

 

I have access to some other machines and will report once I do get to play them.
