Recommended Posts

Hi! Im considering moving to se, my game have ~120 mods. Sometimes game getting ctd when playing in full screen, and i have to completely restart pc. I heard SE is more stable. Main reason for playing skyrim is adult/sex gameplay. There is similiar amount of mods for SE? 

My Pc specs :

OS: Windows 10 

CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 3,20GHz

RAM: 8GB

GPU: XFX RADEON RX 580GTS XXX OC+ 8GB GDDR5

Generally SE is more optimized. I think LE is capped at 30fps and SE either removed or increased the cap to 60fps and it looks like you machine can handle it high to ultra depending on aesthetic mods you install.

 

If you don't mind having to reinstall all your mods and finding SE versions of them then I recommend switching to SE because LE will inevitably become unsupported by mod authors sooner than SE in fact I have seen some mods that are made for SE and are not planned for LE releases. That is of course if you are very inclined to using mods but at this point I think very few people still play unmodded skyrim.

Once played skyrim without any mods, horrible experience :D. I don't mind reinstalling mods. I will definitely try se, always can go back to le

120 fps LE here...

I'm crawling on 60 on SE. Might be my Monitor but it won't get much more. So, fairy tail about SE = More FPS destroyed ?

 

On another note OP, if you can't mod LE properly, you will crash on SE also

Ah sorry my bad. I must've misread some posts. In my defense I only played LE on a potato laptop so I never even played beyond 30fps.

Truer words have never been spoken. You'd think they would make overhauls creation club mods that makes skyrim's mechanics up to date with modern games like maybe SkySA Combat

That describes every Bethesda game installed only relying on their official bugfixes. I installed SSE and it crashed shortly after. Don't think I was 5mins into the game and it crashed. Uninstalled it. Because it's not special. The 64bit doesn't magically make all your problems go away. I saw it as a waste of time and made the right choice to stay with my stable LE.

The big problem with I had with LE is that it's limited in RAM usage, so if your mods consume more resources it will get unstable and crash a lot, regardless of how powerful your system is. SE should fix that since it's 64 bit, but I never tried it.

With ENB memory management you can get around that now as MS released a fix awhile ago to get around the Directx9 limitation

 

But yeah with SE you don't need the ENB memory management to do that so its just to make stuff look pretty
