A lot of games CTD.

Did you consider if it is a software problem? There are lots of info around on what can cause Skyrim to CTD.

Is it the 4GB bug? For a while if the game tried to reserve memory past 4GB it fatally crashed, but that should have been patched out.

650 gold rated nice, i wasn't using 650 watts on my old system and cpu and gpu were overclocked, i have heard of people with skyrim using some insane amount of ram, that would cause the system to crash

lol 8b is ok, how ever you only have im sure of it, 2gb on the video card, which is easily chewed up in most games and can cause crashes

As I said upthread, there was an issue with Skyrim being unable to address more than 4GB of RAM and crashing when it tried to do so, but that should be fixed, but if you're running an older version, it may not have been patched out.

Try downloading LOOT and running that to sort your load order, even without mods, it may be your load order that's causing the game to crash. http://loot.github.io/

Edit: Also, have you validated the game cache of Skyrim through Steam? If not, just open up Steam, right click on Skyrim, select properties and navigate to the "local files" tab, in there you should see an option to validate the game cache.
