CTS (no error) Freezes, low FPS.

[Katohh]

So I'm getting crashes, freezes and stuttering now.

 

The crashes happen at random when I'm just walking around in the open world. Same happens with the freezes. The game just hangs, music continues. I'm forced to use the task manager to close skyrim.

I also get a random low fps spikes. This all happened since update 1.6.

I've tried multiple things including the sound fix things, update all my drivers. Reinstall skyrim, but nothing works.

I used to play this game on high settings, even though the launcher recommends me to play on ultra.

But now I can't even play it on medium.

 

I have a lot of mods installed.

I wish I had an answer for you, but I don't. I have pretty much the same problem, random freezes where I have to bring up the task manager to close Skyrim which is "not responding". Mine started happening before 1.6 though.

 

I've tried to pinpoint any mods that might be causing it, with little success. One thing I know for sure is I cannot run Warzones:Civil Unrest (unfortunately). I get a 100% auto freeze when using that. However, I still get random freezes without it, so it's not just that mod. I have done a full uninstall/reinstall of Skyrim and Steam, and it still happens. Done a lot of research and finding more and more people having this problem, but no solutions or causes are known. I didn't always have this problem either, just started about a month ago or so.
