A lot of work to do it all this way, but have a look here. He does have a nice list of good mods and tips on how to make patches etc.

My Personal must haves.. SKSE, BOSS, WyreBash right off the bat.
In graphics, theres tons of textures to choose from. But The No Stretch and SMIM are must haves IMO as a base.
For armor and wepaons, Ive been using and like Immersive Wepons and Immersive Armors. And Book of Silence are good retextes of Armor and weapons.
Also, Automatic Variants is nice. More variety in what creatures look like,.
SkyUI and Categorized favorites for the UI. Huge help for me.
For gameplay,
ACE Overhaul (w/OPtional alchemy removed file) Theresalso a Immerive wep/armor patch if using those.
Phitts Alchemy
Duel Combat
Frotsfall
If curious, heres my mod list Im currently running. Everything except the Texture overrhauls are here.,
Some of the patches I made though.

Apr 29, 2017 Gonna be buying a PC within a few days and need to know whether or not to downgrade the windows 10 install it comes with to windows 7 in order to get the most out of Skyrim. The rig I am looking at has an 8GB GTX1080, but I have heard that when playing Skyrim windows 10 limits the VRAM usage to 4GB, which is problematic if playing with. How to use gdb.
