RAM usage and CTDs at 1GB

So I've been trying to get a S.T.E.P modded skyrim going for about a week now, fighting against constant CTDs. Anyway, when I monitor the mem usage it looks like the game crashes when it hits 1gb of RAM.

My specs:
AMD Phenom II quad core 3.4GHz
8G RAM (3.25 usable)
Radeon HD 7770 1GB

I can run the vanilla game on ultra no problem, occasional crash if I hit F12 but I'm guessing that's just Steam interfering and mucking stuff up, but if I put the High res DLC textures on I get a CTD just as I enter the game (goes through the loading screen then back to desktop before character or world can appear). Using the Skyrim performance monitor there's a green dashed line at 1gb which I though must relate to my VRAM limit. But it's when the yellow memory line hits that dashed line that the game crashes. So if I'm reading that right, my game is being limited to 1gb of RAM (its fully updated so should be LAA).

Am I reading this all right? Or am I making some really obvious mistakes? Any help here would be much appreciated, even if its just to point me somewhere else to ask; I'm literally about to throw the monitor out the window...
