i have a pretty good GPU now.

besides crysis, what old games can i go back and play on ultra-super-max settings and would still give my GPU a good workout?

or what games looked really good on ultra at the time but struggled to deliver fps, and would now be a joke for a modern high end GPU?

ENB is not state of the art for visually modding Skyrim anymore, and modding would be artificially reducing fps anyway. They could as well run a number cruncher in the background.

Add something productive like what an alternative to ENB would be.

The easiest way to install a modlist is Wabbajack. Unfortunately I don’t have a specific recommendation.

Wabbajack is not an alternative to ENB.

Yes but visual overhauls with modlists perform and look better than ENB solutions.

So ENB may still be state of the art?
