I didn't it see it in your previous posts but I didn't use DDSopt ! I used Optimizer Textures by Apipino. https://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=12801

@MadWizard25 I can confirm that your video shoudn't be the entire problem. I've the exact same card with 1920*1024 resolution and I experienced many freezes (outside whiterun, going straight forward to the down river for example) and game loading when directly outside. I mention also that I freshly installed STEP and skyrim for a new game. After, optimized textures the problem has been solved (at least for the 5 hours I played last two nights). Just few changes on my config. uGrid => 7 and shadows configured with this values https://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=7638
