Grass density is cranked way up default in our heavily modded version of Skyrim. Alternately, you could use mods like Grass on Steroids, which can give you performance-friendly grass without too much of an image quality hit. Then, type in “tg” (without quotes), then hit Enter. Press the Shift and Tilde keys (SHIFT + ~) to open up the console. You can use a simple console command to disable grass entirely for a nice performance boost. Disable or tweak Grass: While wide-open fields of waving grass are certainly pretty, they impact your framerate in a big way.Your resolution is automatically upped in static scenes where you’re just standing there, taking in the scenery, and dropped in the heat of battle so that you can get acceptable gameplay performance. HiAlgoboost is a compromise that changes your resolution dynamically. Unfortunately, anything higher tends to lag badly on integrated graphics. Use HiAlgoboost: While your mileage may vary, running Skyrim at 640x480 is not a very nice experience.Here are a couple things you can do to get it running well while looking reasonably good: Thankfully, Skyrim can still be challenging to run on low-end hardware. The PS3 version of Skyrim is, to this day, one of the worst-performing titles on the platform. Today, we’ll show you how to get the venerable The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim up and running on almost any system (while still looking reasonably good.)īethesda’s 7 th gen opus pushed the limits of what the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 were capable of. With a little bit of tweaking (and, admittedly, some compromising), you can get almost any game you want up and running on a potato. But if you don’t mind blocky pixels and-well, we’re not going to sugar-coat it-general ugliness, there are still ways to get extremely intensive modern titles running on bottom-of-the-pile hardware.

With titles like Assassin’s Creed: Unity demanding a GTX 680 as the minimum spec, we’re moving towards the point where you’ll either just need to upgrade your hardware or stick with older titles. The vast majority of gamers either use integrated graphics or entry-level discrete parts-the GTX 650 and below. However, nifty press privileges aside, the fact of the matter is that as per Steam, the Intel HD 4000 is the most commonly used graphics adapter, integrated or otherwise. And occasionally, we even get to spend time with real behemoths like the 980 Ti. The good folks over at Asus are sending over a Strix 390X very soon (stay with us here for our hands-on feature).

We’ve got a solid Haswell i5 paired with a 780 Ti and 8 GB of RAM. Here at IGN India, we’re in a fairly good spot when it comes to PC hardware.
