Is My PC Capable of ENB?

I always read you need the 'monster PC' to use anything that overhauls Skyrim from textures to lighting, etc., etc. etc.

So here's my specs, could I use those fancy mods other people are using to make Skyrim non vomiting or am I screwed?

 

AMD Quad-Core A6-3620 Accelerated Processor

 

8GB DDR3 system memory

 

AMD Radeon HD 6530D integrated graphics

You dont need monster PC, yet your system represents the other end.

There are peformance versions of enb presets also enb itself is completly configurable so you can use it to just improve performance (enb boost) or use it to boost the graphics to the limits, but with a integrated gpu its allready awesome you can play skyrim itself (exaggerated) I would not use enb without a proper gpu and at least 2gb vram

 

Regardless of this I would at least try some hd texture packs and see how performance goes if it dosent work you can still deinstall them

When i used my very low end laptop, i used Reallike enb.

That one is VERY performance friendly.

Just a decent PC is capable of ENB and rest, but yours is it low end spectrum.

 

You won't be able to heavy mod your game with ENB and new textures.

 

Still if you research there are ways to enhance your game even with low end PC performance friendly enhancements.

you could try purity on nexus.

 

I switched from realvision enb cause I don't like the look of enbs (and had some lighting bugs...)

and I have to admit purity lokks very nice^^

I did try ENB before and it lagged badly. So I got rid of it and things were fine again. So I'm assuming it was my system can't handle ENB mods. But if there's 'low end' versions I'll check them out.

Someone recommended this to me the other day http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48554/?

 

It works fine on my terrible laptop..only slightly more laggy than normal but its worth it :-)

Climates of Tamerial is required? If so then I can't use it, that lags the game. Guess I just can't use this stuff until I can afford those fancier cumpooters.

A8s and A10s are quads; an A6 is a dual-core A4 on steroids, with a bigger cache and a higher clock speed.

 

Also pick up a decent R7 260 or higher with GDDR5 memory, a dedicated discrete GPU which should reduce the processing pressure on the APU and at the same time free more memory for the system.

 

There are real performance ENB presets out there, such as those presented by those anons:

I'd reserve the 2k textures and high-poly meshes for higher-end systems, as even 1k textures -- take hold of Gamwich's texture packs -- and without SMIM looks good on mid-range PCs.
