I remember playing Skyrim on my old Intel Core 2 Quad Core Q9505, 8GB DDR3, HD 5450 rig back in the day. Truth be told, it wasn't that terrible of an experience. I got around 30fps average on the lowest settings and resolution. The rig itself probably would work well as a retro rig, but the GPU really holds it back.
Now with more and more performance mods available (FPS booster, low res particles, insignificant objects remover, downscaler, LODS, etc) you can even play SSE on it with better stability
Ill say this isn't as neat compared to Oblivion videos, but i thought it would be neat to see how well this rig would run Skyrim. I bet lots of people played Skyrim like this.
This is a little too close to how Skyrim runs on my laptop and I'm not sure how I feel about that. 😳 All I know is that in the rare few moments I get 30 FPS it feels like 60 because I'm so used to the 10-15 fps.
The appearance is the same, but the configuration is different. I remember the CPU was a Celeron. The system is not original because almost all Chinese window systems at that time were pirated.

impressive performance for a machine from 2003/4 running a game from 2012.
You can thank the GPU for that.

The first time I played Skyrim was on HP Omni 105, I can't remember the fps at that time

I thought it wouldn't run on my I3. Seems i can even install mods.
Got a Morrowind non steam copy. It will be awesome
Perhaps you could play Borderlands 2 on Windows XP next time since I remember being a directX 9 title
@@Louis-nv6jr I could look into it. Most likely can, if anything I would try to run it on a Pentium III
