Default Car shakes when idle. Help, what is it?

I have a 2003 Honda CRV. 201,000 miles. I replaced catalytic converter last week. Replaced 2 tie rods, alignment and new tires last month. New AC compressor about 3 years ago.

Now my car shakes at different times. When moving it only seems to do it when I'm going over 60 mph. It also shakes and "clicks" when its idle. I've realized that if I turn the AC off when I'm idle the shaking and noise will immediately stop. When moving, it does not stop if I turn off the AC. Also seems like when I stop the air it blows isnt as cold as it should be.

Ideas on what it is? I want to kinda know before I take it to a shop and get ripped off. I was thinking motor mounts but idk if the motor mounts effect the AC like that?

Thanks in advance

What's your idle rpms when it shakes? If it is too low then it would shake.
Did you check the engine mounts? If they are shot, it would shake.
