Finally got my computer sorted this week and thought my lovely new computer would be /fucking awesome/ with Skyrim but it runs like shit :( At the start of the game I'm getting 20-30fps with all the people in vew and that's on High with AA/AF turned down. Tomshwardware have a 6850 doing a min of FPS at Ultra settings so something must be wrong.
Also the difference in x/y mouse speed was really annoying me. Sorted that though.
Even on low I'm getting slow speeds in open/populated areas. No different to high actually. Things slow down even further on ultra.
Display drivers are the latest AMD ones. Hmmm.
Anyone else here with a 6870 or similar to compare? I dropped the res to 800x600, set high, disabled AA/AF and switched off Dolby Live encoding.
At the start where Ulfrich is on the block the FPS is about 26. Goes up a bit looking away from everyone and shoots up looking at the sky/ground.
