Skyrim decided to start lagging.

[nuttyboy812]

Okay, so I was playing Skyrim, getting 60 FPS and no stuttering or freezes of any kind. Then my game crashed, and so after making a merged patch to make sure it won't crash again, when I got back into the game, I started to get small 3-5 second freezes when looking around Whiterun, and just lower FPS in general. I ran my textures through the texture optimizer and even disabling them, which helped temporarily for about five minutes before the stutters started up again. Merging plugins helped again for another few minutes, before that stopped helping too. I even turned off my ENB and ran nothing except for ENBoost, but this had absolutely no effect on the game's performance. I'm using MO, I have an i5 4690K with a GTX 970 and 8GB of RAM, and my game is installed on an SSD.
