Trust that I have a high end system capable of what I'm doing.. or at least would be if NVIDIA didn't half-ass their enthusiast cards and consistently have less VRAM on them than AMD. Still, added to post. Would be in sig, but I don't see an option for it in the CP. Seems to have appeared after I posted, unless I'm being an idiot.

So, I was struggling with reaching my VRAM limit (3GB) and had to downgrade most of my 4K textures to 2K (ugh). After that, I actually hit the 3.1GB memory limit. I gave up XIG from Xfire and decided to use ENBoost, which let me load my test save that went over the memory limit just by being loaded (800MB after loading with ENBoost). Unfortunately, ENBoost causes MASSIVE stuttering because it keeps discarding my VRAM due to it reaching the limit. I've tried fiddling with the memory values/compression, but there doesn't seem to be any noticeable changes made from adjusting them; looking around is just the worst stuttering mess I've ever seen. So, I seem to be at a brick wall. Is there any way to force ENBoost to use more system memory and less VRAM? If not, then I guess I really have to disable some mods; but unfortunately I've gone through my mod list 3 times over and don't see anything else I'm comfortable with disabling. If anyone wants to look over my mod list and tell me anything that is either unneeded or unnessesary nowadays (I've been building up mods since Skyrim's release to finally play it through for the first time) then it'd be appreciated: System specs if relevant:
