Really slow/input lag?
I have no idea why this game runs so poorly for me. My computer runs the likes of witcher 3, shadow warrior 2 and infinite warfare at 60 fps ultra settings. Is there some setting I should switch off or something? Becuase currently, this is unplayable.

Turn off Vsync. If you are using vsync to help limit your FPS to 60 and prevent screen tearing, turn on triple buffering to minimize the input lag.

ok, noob question, how do I turn it off. Some games have the option on settings, but I don't see it anywhere. And won't turning v sync off make the game near unplayable since it isnt designed to go over 60 fps in the physics engine?

Nice guide[www.neogaf.com] in general.

Disable double-buffer v-sync/remove 60fps cap: Open Documents\My Games\Skyrim Special Edition\SkyrimPrefs.ini and set iVsyncpresentinterval to 0. Just be sure to cap the framerate to 60fps as the physics engine doesn't properly support higher framerates.

I can confirm game runs much better with the FPS limiter, rather than the in game Vsync.

I was running at 15fps initially on a fairly powerful laptop.

Having googled the reason for my poor fps I found the video below; I'm know running at a smooth 60fps.
