INI Files Designed to give the best performance and stability for people who don\'t care about distant detail.

Description

A mod geared to give the user the best performance and stability without sacrificing visuals. This includes 4k shadows with no Jagged lines, Threading for multicore CPUs, Ultra textures, and much more. A low end version is available with no shadows and low textures for systems that are not so strong. Otherwise I would recommend this to people with a radeon 4830 or comparable Geforce.

Configuration Info


My System
AMD Phenom II x4 3.5ghz
Radeon 5850 Vapor-x
8 Gb of ram

Running skyrim using high-res textures + Enb series with AO and IL on these settings

NOTE: New version available for newer machines. Performance may change from machine to machine so I cannot guarantee an increase in performance but it has more tweaks , especially for multi-core systems.

Skyrim.ini Changes

->General-
uExterior Cell Buffer=36 // Works best with uGridsToLoad=5
uGridsToLoad=5 // Keeps high fps

performance

Any Suggestions would be welcome![/center]

NOTE:This configuration has ugrids set to 5 and medium object draw distance. This means that you may incur some item popping.
NOTE: Configuration works best when running the game in fullscreen
