    Hello one and all. Since today is the day for the new updated release of Bethesda's Skyrim Special Edition, I was wondering if any of you have downloaded it and installed it yet?
    I started playing it today, and despite having a pretty powerful Nvidia 1070m GPU gaming laptop, many- including myself, are reporting extremely LOW FPS rates in gameplay.
    How low? As low as 7 Frames Per Second, which is exceptionally low for powerful gaming laptops such as ours.
    Anyone else seeing the same low FPS results?

    Yup. The global setting for it was set to integrated by default. No biggie. Playing on an 860m, I am getting a smooth 60 fps at 1080p with lowered settings. Don't forget to copy and paste your saves!
