First of all - props to an old thread @ http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1651648
BUTT: I bought this game for $5 last year w/ all DLC during the Steam 2014 Holiday sale.
I finally started playing it in June / July 2015 & already have a whopping 24 hours into it.
I somehow started playing the Dragonborn quest (is it a quest, DLC or default?) & I am Level 9.
Obviously, I am not an RPG guy (mostly moto & auto racing + shooters).
Eventually, I will make a new character & buy a horse & try some hunting mod.
Anyway, I really, really like the scenery... it's almost like living in Alaska again - except - Dragons!
I expect the Steam 2015 Holiday sales will bring more players like me around...
Sooooooooooooooooo......
How do I get more frames per second & then test the changes I make?
I am locked @ 60 FPS while running around Riverwood & Windhelm w/ this rig:
~ maxing everything in AMD CCC & drops me to 25~35 FPS
SCREENSHOTS = settings & mods list:

Any advice from the Elders?
