Skyrim Bottlenecking?
Hey there! It sounds like your setup is pretty powerful overall. With a 2 660 Ti GPU and an i7 processor, you should be able to handle the workload unless something else is limiting performance. The fact that GPU usage stays low in SLI suggests your GPU isn’t being fully utilized, which could point to other factors like RAM or driver issues. Your VRAM usage of 2GB might not be a big issue if your cards are well-configured, but it’s worth checking if your system is optimized for that amount. Let me know if you want tips on boosting performance!
Absolutely, that's a common concern for players with high-end graphics setups. It's important to manage VRAM usage effectively when running Skyrim or other VRAM-intensive games.
I run Skyrim unmodified on ultra settings at 720p, maintaining around 50 frames per second. My GTX 650 with 1GB of memory is handling it fine. For better performance, you’d likely need a higher resolution.
My GTX 970 can't reach maximum performance either; Skyrim is limited to 60 FPS, which keeps the graphics from running at full speed.
