Why can't I get 60fps on skyrim(casual, not CE) ultra settings?

[vintence]

my rig:
mobo Z170 pro gaming.
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6gb OC edition.
intel core i5-6600k 3.5GHZ.
16gb ram. DRAM freq ~1070MHz. NB freq ~3900MHz
windows 10 pro.
60hz monitor.
(full information here (if needed): http://pastebin.com/5M8udZxU )

What do I need to upgrade in order to be able running skyrim ultra at 60fps? Right now I can only run it at under 60 which is way less than it should be able to handle.
All the drivers are up to date.
Not overheating. All temperature are normal.

Your GPU may struggle at 60fps ultra imo.. http://asidcast.com/gtx-1060-benchmarks-for-15-games-out-compared-with-radeon-rx-480-geforce-980-970/

What CPU/GPU usage do you get in-game?

First word: Godray
Second word: VSync issue

It should be able to run 60fps+ without problem. The gpu is even an overclocked edition one

Cpu usage: 20~25% while ingame

are you using a 1080p or 1440p monitor?

Skyrim Special Edition or the normal Skyrim? That makes a big difference.
Godrays in the SE Version tent to draw big amounds of performance. Are you playing in FullHD or in 1440p or in 4K? CPU Usage is not really importnant as skyrim is a game that needs almost no CPU power and depends heavily on GPU

1920x1080

As mentioned
1. God rays set to low
2. VSync issue disable VSync from SKyrim .ini files and force frame cap using nVidia inspector.

Normal one, or else I wouldn't even ask 😛.

done with the vsync settings, still no improvement.
and how do I set the godray settings? cant find it.

 

[thehutti]

you can't find them because they are only a part of the Special Edition

In the launcher options, where you can individually set the quality for shadow, etc.
2 stuffs are eating the fps like lunch. They are the godray and shadow quality.
