CG shaders is a modification of E-LITE that aims to make it fancier while maintaining great performance. It adds a lot of customisation as well as a Portuguese translation, and is ideal for use on most PCs, with highly adaptable graphics profiles.
DO NOT use OptiFine preview versions, they are very buggy.
