Hey guys! So i have built my pc and got everything running on it super fine, I get 60+ fps on max settings on pretty much any game!
But heres the issue, for some reason whenever i play skyrim after 5-10 minutes of playing it would completely freeze and i would have to exit to desktop and reopen it again but when i reopen it again, the fps drops from 60+ all the way down to 5-10 fps! What is going on here? The only thing that seems to fix it is restarting the computer but i don't want to have to restart the computer whenever skyrim acts up. Also when skyrim crashes it also effects my other games, so for example: Skyrim crashing so i decide to play a different game, that game is 5-10 fps as well. Now the only thing that seems to work is just restarting the computer afterwards.
I have at least 10 mods installed:
1. Enhanced blood textures
2. HD texture pack
3. SkyUI
4. Lightsaber mod
5. SKSE
6. UNP
7. Immersive weapons
8. Immersive armour
9. auto unequip arrows
10. Main Menu Spinning Icon (Makes the skyrim emblem at the main menu spin)
Questionable why it should effect my other games to drop 50 fps in performance but here is my system specs which should help:
1. Intel Core i5 3570k (using stock cpu cooler)
2. Bitfenix Raider case
3. ASrock extreme6 motherboard
4. HP dual channel 8gb ram
5. 650w psu (not ocp and ovp protected)
6. Sapphire HD 7850 oc edition 2gb
Should i possibly upgrade my i5's Cooler to a Aftermarket cooler?
And yes skyrim is a very buggy game with many issues but there is no reason for it to crash then drop 50fps in all my games suddenly!
Regards, Jack
