I have a small advice for a such .ini-lines tweaks. Just look into TESV.exe (by using some viewer in a text format) and you can find all .ini line commands/parameters of the game. And you'll find some surprise: there are no such lines as "iHWThread7" and "iHWThread8" in TESV.exe. But there are only "iHWThread1" - "iHWThread6". So this suggestion: --------- "These settings i do not have solid proof that this is the way it works but it sure gave me a lot of stability at heavy areas. i will post my idea for settings further down for 6 and 8 cores :-D iHWThread8=X => bMultiThreadMovement=1 iHWThread7=X => bUseThreadedParticleSystem=1 iHWThread6=X => bUseThreadedBlood=1 iHWThread5=X => bUseThreadedMorpher=1 iHWThread4=X => bUseThreadedTempEffects=1 iHWThread3=X => bUseThreadedTextures=1 iHWThread2=X => bUseThreadedMeshes=1 iHWThread1=X => bUseThreadedLOD=1 ---- may be wrong.
I don't have a benchmark tool, but I sure can see how better the perfomance got, the game is running a lot smoother now, it's that visible. Working wonders on a Core i5 3330 + nVidia GTS 450
did what kaizersoze27 suggest. WORKS amazingly! I'm running on 1920x1080 fs. whiterun 30~49fps (formally 20~32fps) Dungeons 60fps (formally 30fps avg.)
This the most amazing tweak i have encounter. With rumors that Skyrim cannot run more than 2 core which i have seen in some forums, it proves that now it does support multi-core pretty well with the latest version of skyrim of course.
I'm running with >100mods +SKSE + TeamCrossFire HDtexture DLC (lite)
This the most amazing HD texture and the author took 9 months to do it. Opps! OMG, i realize it was removed from Skyrim Nexus today. Probably the author is uploading...i was downloading only two days ago. sorry... http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30038
Found the torrent here or google. TeaMCrossFirE Skyrim High Resolution DLC. <link to pirate site removed> It takes a while to download with torrent but worth the effort. It has two version, Ultra and Lite. If your PC cannot do with 4K texture. I suggest downloading only the lite version.
I highly recommend to use this super looking HD texture which resolve my trees leaves texture issue at riverwood (which i cannot find any other texture that works except this version). I had pretty bad experience with other HD texture with lots of texture bugs.
OMG this is amazing, my game is much more stable now almost 60 fps everywhere (with nearly 70 mods and i have an ENB, but I'm thinking of quitting it). I really hope that you can work in more tweaks, this needs much more diffusion I'll recommend this to GEMS. I'll try this with something more heavy like warzones, thank you tracing2501

What won do you think I should download? I don't really understand that gibberish that is in the description.

Oh yeah. I'm also using Skyrim Configurator. Will it work in addition to your file?
