Skyrim SE 120 Hz monitor

[Ucieciecie]

Hello guys. I have a laptop whose monitor has 120hz refresh rating. Does this version support it? Or i am bound to play in windowed Mode which I would like to avoid. Thanks in advice.

unless you use mods like havok fix

the game wont run nice above 60 fps, but im sure it supports 120 hz refresh rate

And even with the so-called "fixes" running at above 60 fps limits the amount of time scripts have to complete and can cause issues.

you cant play until fix high fps bug on skyrim. you can easily fix it. write 144hz bug on skyrim to google. there is some videos that can help you.

Hello Ucieciecie,

you should be able to play Skyrim Special Edition with the full 120 Hz refresh rate.
I am playing with a 144 Hz refresh rate myself without any problems.

I experienced bugs with refresh rates above 60 Hz only in the original Skyrim.

Running above 60 fps has other implications as it effects the scripts so depending on how long you choose to play and if you're a person who like questing this will have an impact down the road. This game was not meant or built to play above 60fps. Besides, it's not a fps shooter multiplayer game where a split second can make the difference.

Thank You so much! That what's the correct answer. Rest of the people instead of refresh rating started to talk about FPS which I did not mean.

A friend of mine had an issue while playing standard version on his 144hz monitor that's why I asked. You all know, it's Bethesda after all.

I'm sure it's the answer you wanted. Do some research on the subject so you understand how fps relates to hz and how fps can break your game. Many people who want to up their fps start with that question and if it's not the case with you then kudos to you. Either way a little research goes a long way.

No it is not the correct answer as the game will break above 60fps, it is just a matter of time as scripts will be out of sync and it will accumulate problems over time. Hz does not really matter, you can use that on anything. Heroes of Might and Magic 3 works on a 144hz monitor.

You can play past 60fps with the use of a mod. I forgot it's name. Silly me; but mods that relay on the game to play at 60fps will have issues.

But I can cap the game on 60fps using nvidia panel. So far got two games - Kotor 1 and Dark Souls 2 where the problem is appearing because of my screen's refresh rating. That's why fps is not a problem for me. Unless there is something I do not know about and nvidia panel won't work.

like I said in my last post, kudos to you then. I have a 144hz monitor and yes it's set to 144 as well. BUT I lock my FPS at 59. Enjoy.
