Skyrim Special Edition, 5-10 FPS

I posted this to c/piracy, as lemmy does not have a CrackSupport equivalent.

This is the Fitgirl Repacks release.

My specs- GPU: Intel® HD Graphics 4000 - CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz - RAM: 16 GB DDR3 - OS: Windows 10 Pro 10.0.19045 Build 19045

My settingsDefault Low preset, with Antialiasing turned off for performance. https://i.imgur.com/aFqPUEj.png

I thought it was my graphics ““card”” but I looked it up online and others seem to be able to run it fine.

Any suggestions?

I ended up installing the original Skyrim, and it works fine. All hail the mighty Razor 1911.

Disable ssao and reduce shadow distance. Also get a potato mod. You might find skyrim legendary edition to be more bearable fyi

This is really a hardware limitation. If you are in a desktop you should add a graphics to it. But if it is a laptop unfortunately there is nothing you can do.

Really the only things I’m seeing in the settings that could get you a few frames are lowering the resolution, and turning shadows down further. Beyond that, the answer is “buy a new computer”. The i7 3770 is by no means an impressive processor, and you’re putting double duty on it since you don’t have a dedicated graphics card.

You’re also underclocked compared to the published specs, so I assume you’re in a laptop where heat is a major bottleneck as well?

If you really want to make Skyrim playable on an HD Graphics card, you might have to go lower than even the low settings (like by editing config files, for example).

Many people have made recommendations on what to change in videos and posts, you should look them up. IIRC there was even a mod for low-spec Skyrim.

At that point I would find a used radeon 6400, but even then the card would probably be bottlenecked by the cpu/ram and many other factors.

HD graphics 4000 can barely run Minecraft let alone skyrim. I think you’re getting what you’re getting.
Crank literally everything to minimum.

Its technically running.

    This is the way to go 👍

    Honestly not surprised. You’re running that on a, what, 15 year old potato? Yes, Skyrim isn’t the most modern game, but that GPU was intended for desktop use, back then. I’m actually impressed that it runs at all. I’d half expect the game to just crash because it requests something that dinky GPU simply cannot provide.

    Yeah, that’s what I thought, but as I said in the post I googled it and other people said it could run, I do not have anything else I can play this game on.

    It’s technically running. I doubt anyone claimed it would be playable.
