About this image

Especially the mods and enbs.

Tried an ENB and it runs pretty nicely but somehow the framerate drops after 3 minutes probably overheats my graphics card. :/ Any solutions?

    Probably a combination of filling up the vram on your graphics card and the ENB causing it to run hotter. Both of those issues are more noticeable the longer you are in your game. Sometimes quicksaving, F5, then quickloading, F9, will purge some textures from your vram and you might get some FPS back, but it's not a real solution.

      Thanks for replying,

      I found that all I had to do was alt+tab into something else that doesn't require much vram like the desktop or chrome around a minute and when I noticed that the graphics card started to cool down a bit, I jump back in the game and it runs smoothly again. Weird.

      Not weird really, it's likely exactly what you said. Many graphics cards throttle back so they don't overheat, but then the display slows up.

      I actually turned down the memory clock speed to like.... 1202 Mhz and it did the trick. Somehow, the card was running way over the top for some odd reason.
