Studdering and Low FPS fix?

[slime_man]

I love this game but I've always had a hard time getting into it because it never worked well on my PC. I always get FPS drops and bad studdering. it's not a problem with my PC, since I should be able to easily max out this game without much trouble. Is this a known bug, or is it just really ♥♥♥♥♥♥ optimization on Bethesda's end?

Specs:
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black edition (Quad core 3.4Ghz)
AMD Radeon HD 7750 Asus 1gb
4gb DDR3 Ram
Windows 7 64-bit

Here is a guide[www.tweakguides.com] for editing the ini file to allow the game to use more RAM and stuff I put some in on mine about a year ago.

Make sure that V-Sync is dissabled in the launcher settings

Thanks, turning off V-Sync worked for me, no FPS drops.

I have v-sync off but im still getting fps drops any advice? I can max the game out and get 60 frames but itll drop to like 18 then jump any where from there up..

Yep, turns out it actually wasn't the V-Sync for me, I thought it was, it was actually a restart of the game, I'm thinking maybe a Vram issue, it's an old game so even with high performance it might not use all of your VRam and therefore refuse to load textures, I've noticed I only get these drops when looking at certain textures, when restarting this issue is fixed so it has to do something with loading textures or rather not being able to load textures after a while.

I don't have a fix for it, saving/restarting your game seems to bypass the problem.
