Game freezing and crashing to desktop

Hi! Could really use some help troubleshooting. Prior to the autosave update, I began experiencing repeated freezing which would then be followed by the game crashing to desktop. I ran through a whole lot of testing - removing all mods and cc, playing in a new save file and updating my drivers but it kept happening. After the autosave update, things were running very smoothly so I thought the issue was fixed and slowly began introducing some mods again. Now it's happened again, exact same pattern so I don't think it's caused by mods. I really don't know what more to try at this point. Crash report and Dx report attached - please let me know if I can provide more information. Thank you.
