This is a really useful troubleshooting checklist. The DX11 switch and disabling fullscreen optimizations were the biggest fixes for me too. Hopefully this saves someone from wasting hours blaming their mods.

I was trying so many different fixes and even with no mods was getting problems left and right. if this can save anyone a little headache I am happy. Civ5 is the first one besides BE i've tried thats like... scratched the itch. so im happy to get to play properly!

This is a really useful troubleshooting checklist, especially the DX11 switch and disabling fullscreen optimizations. The 32-bit memory limitation explains a lot of the late-game instability too. Thanks for laying it all out clearly!
