Why does skyrim look like crap on max settings on my gtx1060? (it looked fine on my gtx770)

Note: I don't have any graphical mods installed, just SkyUI.
EDIT: apparently this is being caused by enabling any plugins, even Dawnguard.esm or Unofficial Skyrim Patch. Very odd. It works fine without any mods or expansion packs.
Followup: I completely reinstalled Mod Organizer and now everything works fine. I still have no concept of why it would get in this broken state.
I have the very same issue, CoT slightly improved it, but I install my mods manually so maybe the order is being the issue here. I'll try what you said!
I assumed when I saw the title that this would be another of those threads where the OP is complaining about some petty detail not looking right but damn you're right that looks like shit. I'd try reinstalling.
Yeah, I guess I'll try that. Reinstalling never helped the problems I had with when I was playing with my gtx 770 a year ago (crashing, physics bugs, slow scripts) but I'll update the post if it helps.
Holy fuck mine looks better on low...Something is def wrong there.
Try forcing Anisotropic filtering on via your gpu's control panel? That might make the ice textures look less blurred
Not a graphics guru but I would think an old game engine on new hard ware may be the issue. Kinda like hooking your Nintendo to a1080p T.V.
This poster had a similar problem. There is a mod to solve this.

Wow, ok thanks! You're the MVP here...
I already reinstalled Mod Organizer and the core mods that I was interested in, and that seems to fix it.
