Low FPS in Skyrim yet I have a high end PC?(fixed)
I've recently built my custom rig. I have a gtx 780ti yet I'm still getting choppy fps in skyrim on high settings. My CPU is an i5 4570K Would that be the issue? Should I go with an i7?

I love that logic. "Oh, my graphics card isn't working, better upgrade my CPU!"

4 RepliesWhile it seems that Mystical has covered the CPU area, it's probably not your CPU since Skyrim doesn't really use the additional virtual cores that i7 provides. You may be limited by IO operations. I personally have Skyrim installed on an SSD. Additionally, if you have any kind of anti-virus software on your machine, you may want to check if it's scanning files while you're playing since that can kill the FPS in games.

3 RepliesThe fact you mentioned upgrading your i5 to an i7 shows you know nothing about PC gamin or PCs in general. Have you downloaded the recen graphic card drivers? Go to your card brand's website, or to the Nvidia site. If it is brand new you may have a shit GPU - it happens. Are other games affected? In the same way? Run a diagnostic tool on your GPU. See if that highlights any issues. What brand is our GPU OP? What wattage is your PSU? How many fans have you got? Do you have enough ventilation to cool your GPU?

1 ReplyYou need to clear your HDD and create more space. This is a fairly common problem.

1 ReplyBad mods or the graphics card isn't up to par. My only guess.

5 RepliesEdited by Elrond Hubbard: 12/31/2013 6:06:08 AMYour CPU should be fine. I reckon the issue is the graphics card. The problem you probably have is that your graphics card did not exist when Skyrim was developed/released/patched, thus Bethesda didn't make the necessary optimizations for it. Skyrim is notorious for being poorly optimized, and you've learned that the hard way :/

6 RepliesWhat mods do you have installed? Skyrim runs on a 32 bit architecture so it cannot fully utilize all the power of high end pc's (sadly). It can only use up to 4GB of system ram (even if you have more installed). A mod like ENB will allow more ram but the game is not perfect and has known memory leaks. I have a new i7 4820k, 16 GB ram, and a GTX 680 4Gb card. While Skyrim runs quite smooth for me the game can't use all the power of my machine so the game can crash from time to time since I literally have over 150+ mods installed and that is very memory intensive on a 32 bit architecture game like Skyrim. Overall my Skyrim is quite stable but it takes a lot of fine tuning, tweaking, Tes5edit cleaning, texture compression, bashed patches, and BOSS load order tinkering. This is why I am super EXCITED in the next 3-4 years to see elder scrolls VI. It will hopefully be built 64 bit (so it can run on new consoles) which means for us pc gamers more ram allocation and usage of our pc's. This means more mods and less memory issues like we have with Skyrim. The new Fallout 4 I'd expect to run on 64 bit as well.
