Boris, you are a genius. Seriously take a nap after this! I think you've nailed the memory fix!
+1 greatest ENB ever, wonderful work !

I have a 4Gb GPU, but I consider switching on a 3Gb 780, how does it affect your performance when skyrim needs loads than your physical VRAM ?
If it is doing well I'll switch definitly!
I often reach 3Gb but rarely above 3.3Gb even if it has once hit 4049 Mb of VRAM :D

My stats after 3h of gaming :

btw how come have I such a higher GPU usage on average with a weaker CPU compared to you guys ? I thought GPU usage was CPU dependent..
It says 2.1Ghz but it's always operating at 2.8Ghz (turbo)

Your CPU is 4 cores with 8 threads, so SPM will show low overall CPU usage. If you run TaskManager to see the logical CPUs, you'll see one of core would be almost 100% to process all NPC AI.

Ah ok, interesting ! So hyperthreading is good for skyrim I guess ? Because I cannot enable or disable HT unless I hack my motherboard bios :/
But that didn't explain my 98% average GPU usage compared to others with faster CPUs. (other GPU usage : 70% 75% 84% 90%).
Well maybe it is because they use Vsync and where it should deliver more than 60 fps... gpu usage is lower ? But on my particular setup, I can't get more than 50 fps so that's even lower than Vsync ON. (Well it show maximum 54 FPS but it's not true, it was rather a glitch that last 1/10s... I physically can't get more than 50fps in 1920x1080x32.)

Vamp and some others are lucky bastard :D who can buy $1000 GPU Titan, so those would have a low GPU usage. Some showed 3 Titan SLI which he had to pay $3000 for just GPU cards. Your GTX 670 appears be high level, but GTX 690 would be the top of GTX 600 series that would be able to do 60fps at 1080p.

Re: TES Skyrim 0.209

Ahh ok thank you so it's just a matter of much more powerful GPU than I lol :D a tri-SLi titan is bottlenecked by any CPU I guess lol.
Well I asked because my setup is so uncommon (1.16kg and 13" laptop 1080p + external GTX 670 4Gb :D but low bandwidth equivalent to PCI-e X2 2.0) that I'm always curious at comparing it to desktop setup.

Re: TES Skyrim 0.209

I set my vramsize to 2048MB (2GB) and it works perfectly. I experience a performance boost, no ctd, no freeze. I now can play Oyamas Quality Kountervibe preset without lags at steady fps values! :O

Re: TES Skyrim 0.209

Boris you might want to update ENBboost nexus page. Put new version and include the parameters detail description in readme text.
Some people are too vegetable.

Re: TES Skyrim 0.209

Excellent version. I'm still experimenting around with VideoMemorySizeMb. I have 3GB VRAM and 8GB RAM, plus I'm running a rather lean set up with a minimal amount of programs running on startup/in the background.

ATM I'm using:

VideoMemorySizeMb=6144

and everything seems wonderfully stable and smooth so far. Might try to up it a bit and see what happens.
