Hello everyone, I'm sharing this today since my Skyrim game keeps crashing due to noticeable graphical issues. My system specs are: AMD FX 6300 at 4.3 GHz, two PowerColor R9 280x graphics cards, CROSSFIRE 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, and a 850-watt PSU. I've updated all the latest AMD drivers and tried everything—lowering graphics settings, disabling CrossFire, and even fresh installs—but the problems persist. Online advice usually points to either a faulty GPU or overheating, which isn't the case here. My mods are all clean, and I haven't encountered any conflicts. If anyone has insights or fixes, I'd really appreciate it.

Maybe your CPU is experiencing stability problems. Are you sure it's OC?

That's a great observation, I hadn't considered it before. On the other hand, I've played several titles such as Fallout 4 and War Thunder without any problems with OC instability. I'll attempt to start at a lower frequency and let you know the outcome.

Reduce the overclock settings and add at least the Unofficial Skyrim Patch for stability improvements and bug fixes.

You check the GPU's status to ensure it’s functioning properly, as it could be experiencing issues beyond overheating. Have you run any performance tests before?

I saved and set up the mod you recommended, but nothing happened. I also tried lowering the clock speeds and still faced problems. A friend with the same CPU at 4.4 GHz managed to run the game smoothly. I understand overclocking varies, but it gives me some confidence it’s not my own setup.

I've also run benchmarks like Unigine Valley without any problems.

Have you executed them since the problems began? If not, rerun them to check for a lower score or crashes. This can identify the issue.
