Loading Memory (The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim)

Recently I decided to play the game again after 4 years, but with mods on a relatively new computer and with the ENB. I thought that 8 GB of RAM and 2 GB of video memory would be enough for my eyes - yeah, right now. I launched MSI Afterburner along with the game for measurement and was surprised to see that the video memory and RAM are loaded to the limit, and this despite the fact that the LOD and the quality of the vegetation (SFO mod) are average. I would like to know who has 16 or 32 Giga RAM, how much it loads and the same question about video memory - who has 4 or more giga cards

It's strange that some people still don't know that the game engine is ancient, very ancient, so optimization is not about it + numerous mods additionally load the system, although there are also quite a few programs, thanks to the moderators and fans, without them the game would have died already for a long time, which optimize this piece of crafts called the game by the crooked-handed developers ... And so the conclusion is this: it doesn’t depend on how strong you have on board, the main amount of modification filler, but lags, brakes, etc., it will be applied anyway ...

The Skyrim engine is not old, Creation Engin has been used since 2011 in Skyrim and compared to other engines like CryEngine and Frostbite Engine it is still a baby. And the same is not true about optimization: pure skyrim works well on almost any calculator. Memory and performance eat mods.

I don’t know, I managed to play very well on the GT440 with 60 fps, now I have a GTX750ti for two gigs, I think it’s worth installing skyrim and looking at it. I advise the author to put normal mods or ENB, because some are just made through the ass, but in my opinion the graph in Skyrim is excellent, I set everything to ultra and drive yourself.

For me, an engine that is over 10 years old is already old, and no matter how much technology is pushed into it, the restriction will not allow further progress ... This can be seen in the visual component in past games like Oblivion, F3, etc. Well, of course, it’s going to go, because. designed for low power, but dofiga flaws and more if you do not use special modifications. A similar situation with AC, one engine for all times and games, well, this is understandable, because. developing a completely new one consumes multiple resources ...

This is how many mods you need to set in order for the Skyrim process to leave at least 2 gigs of RAM?
For example, I have 90 mods, Sky eats 1.3-1.5 gigs. Vidyahu never watched and do not see the point.
IceDMC is
phenomenal stupidity.
The fact that CreationEngine does not produce a graph drawing picture in the default Sky is more related to marketing for everyone, and not for a bunch of fans to load their quads and fap on pixels.

That's right, "phenomenal stupidity" is not to read what is written, but only superficially inspect and then blizzard your nonsense, allegedly attributing it to the commentary ... just............

250gts + quad 2 core 8200- 2.50 hertz the game runs at 50 fps stably (Steam faces without mods)

Your config should suffice.

I eat an average of 5-7 gigs of RAM, and video memory is less than 2 gigs (I don’t know, of course, it can be more) despite the fact that many graphic mods are installed.

"...and no matter how much technology is crammed into it, the restriction will not allow it to advance further...", Gazebo has been tormenting Gamebrio for 10 years (yes, yes, in Sky Gamebrio only stuffed) and then the last post.

The list of mods is very large, many textures were generally set for a very long time and manually, there is no desire to list everything.
The last thing I installed and updated.

The engines in Oblivion, F3, NV and Skyrim are different, in the first three it's Gamebryo and in Skyrim it's the Creation Engine, which is in the top five most recent engines.

PS The AC series for PC is based on five different engines.

Thank you. But it is surprising that it is the skyrim.exe process that eats up 5-7 gigs, no matter how I tried for 2.4 gigs, I never got out. Will have to try this set. Although parallaxes and 2k can fit into memory.

Yes, Gamebrio is the same there, with new crutches under his own brand. If it were not for him, it would not have been necessary to inherit the rather inconvenient system esm esp bsa, expandable PapyrusScript through the ass and so on, Gamebrio sticks out there from every corner.

darkster 18.04.22

Yes, this is how it is done in the entire gaming industry: they make a new one on the basis of the old engine. Vivid examples: Cry Engine, id Tech, Anvil Engine, etc. And as for the convenience of esm esp bsa-archives, well, I don’t know what could be more convenient ... The "convenience" of this system has been proven by thousands of mods for Skyrim, Oblivion and Fallouts, which are easy to install and easy to delete, which are easy to create and easy to edit, which change and expand the gameplay so much like no other game...

Finally installed 16 gigs of memory and was able to find out for sure - the system + game eats a maximum of 7 with a little gigs. If you leave the browser or something else open at the same time, it may be more than 8. The whole trick is that Skyrim is a 32-bit application, for which the ceiling is 3 with a small gig, although Windows-64 seems to be able to use some fraud increase this threshold one and a half times, but no more. Looking forward to 64-bit games.
