at the very least.

You'll want the Full HD texture mod. You might also like the immersion mod (removes the HUD; you can bring it back at will), any mod that adds ambient occlusion, and a realistic water mod (there are several).

Trust me, you'll want to mod the living hell out of this game, but you'll end up with a truly stunning visual experience.

Here's a thread I posted a while back showing what my copy of Skyrim looks like; I have quite a few mods installed and tried to list them all at the end:
