What would be some recommended mods for Low end machines?

I just bought the PC version, and have played the PS3 version to death already. Any mods that can be run on low end machines that you'd recommend?

Most item mods (armors, weapons, etc...) should be just fine. If you're able to run the base game, then new textures on a few items probably won't do much.

Relatively script-light mods would probably work too. Things like Midas Magic would probably push it.

Many player-created homes tend to be cluttered enough to cause slowdown, but if you're careful in your selection you should be okay.

Thanks. I had a feeling script light ones wouldn't do much. Ever since that one issue I had with some Morrowind mods, I'm extremely careful about what I use.

Depends on how low end you are. My computer isn't a monster (Dual core 2.4 with 2 GB ram) and the only mods that give me any problems are mods like Warzones which add large numbers of new actors.

I'll find out just what pushes my computer once I get my mod load done. Haha. I don't plan to add much that does things like make certain spawns with the exception of werewolf spawns.
