Skyrim Enb Fps Drop

Most enb will rob your FPS. From what I read, if all settings are on, your FPS will decrease by almost 50%: Enabling ENBSeries: -10% fps Enabling SkyLighting: -15% fps Enabling Sunrays: -2% fps Enabling Detailed Shadows: -2% fps Enabling ENB SSAO: -16% fps Enabling SkyRealism DoF: -12% fps Total Cost: -57% fps For most cases, it is best to disable SSAO and DoF.

• Normal ENB's bring me from 60fps down to 20fps. I changed one I liked, and used a combination of other mods to create the exact same look as the ENB with no FPS loss. The basics of what the above.
• On the pc thats in my sig now i would get around 45-50 fps with enb and every texture pack i could find but it would stutter hard doing fast turns outside. I havent fully completed my new pc but the limited testing ive done with just one new gfx and the ssd seems to have solved it.
