Game freezes after about 5 minutes of play

[Lord Trick]

I'm getting a consistent freeze about 5 minutes into the game on somewhat new save. Now, the freezes are just the latest problem and I've been slowly lowering my mod count (from 126 mods to about 50) to fix the various other CTDs I've been having but after installing Bleak ENB i've gotten a consistent freeze after playing for a while. I decided to check my logs and I got this script repeatedly trying start: [DLC2PillarBuilderActorScript < (060177DB)>]OnPackageStart(). And by repeatedly, I mean 36 times. Clearly, it's related to the Pillar builders in Solstheim, but I haven't even begun the Dragonborn DLC. Hell, I'm only level 2/3 when it freezes (I sometimes kill enough bandits to level up :) ) I don't think it's mod related, namely because most of my mods are weapon/armor packs and textures. I eased off script based mods (R.I.P. Locational Damage) because I found that when the script was supposed to run, it would sporadically cause CTDs (no more CTD headshots :( ).

I've thought that maybe it was related to the ENB but... I really like it and it doesn't appear to be directly related (aside from the fact that the bug occurred after installing it... which is just a coincidence... hopefully).

Oh yeah, system specs just in case:
i7-3770k @ 3.5ghz
16gb RAM @ 1600mhz
7970 OC Ghz edition (3gb)

If you ask me, I could need to download more RAM.... I don't think I have enough...

The game only uses 3.1GB of ram once you hit 3.2 GB of ram it will crash

run this utility and see how much VRAM you are using along with how much reg ram you are using

I installed it and used it: If memory means what I think it means, I've only used 1.2gb of ram while playing and it hovers around there the entire time. However, as expected, my vram is near 3gb the entire time, and my GPU is maxed half of the time. Despite that, I got a good 2 or so hours of gameplay before a sudden ctd. The change from the freezing is due to a stray Climates of Tamerial mod that I didn't notice until I was using Wyre Bash. Once I got rid of it, my freezing stopped.

However, my logs are still filled to the brim with the game attempting to run the same script. This time, it tried to run DLC2PillarBuilderActorScript 311 times. Literally, i counted them (well, 11 pages, 29 per page and 21 on the last page). I hardly think that's normal and even if it's not the cause of my random ctds, it's not supposed to happen. Considering that I've done the Dragonborn DLC once, on xbox when it first came out, and never again after that, It shouldn't be trying to run every 2 or 3 seconds of gameplay. Any ideas?

Actually, it didn't matter, i did a full tes5 clean of all files, I did a bash patch and everything, i still get that script trying to run several times, and always when I ctd.
