X370 Gaming X - Weird NVMe problem

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I have:
- R7 1700 - stock
- X370 Gaming X - latest bios 5.20
- 32gb Team Dark Pro 3200 (4x8) - @2666
- 2x Samsung 850 Evo 250gb sata (boot & game drive)
- 1TB HDD (storage)
- PCIe Wireless card (tplink archer t6e) - bottom slot

So I decided to replace both 850 evo with 970 evo 250gb
to reduce cable clutter. Fresh install windows with only
essential driver (amd all in one, chipset, lan, audio, & gpu)

The problem is realtek audio seems doesn't working right,  
realtek hd audio manager plug/unplug
notifications popping like crazy, games doesnt have any sound, 
bsod when doing userbenchmark (right at gpu test), 
even with the latest driver from microsoft update catalog.

Weird things is when I go back using 850 evo again -> no problem.

So any idea where's the problem? 
- First I though it was bad front panel connection, but since using 850 evo is fine
- Realtek driver, latest driver doesn't help
- Windows 10 update
- Faulty nvme drive
- Faulty m.2 slot

	Why didn't you leave the audio driver to Win 10? It sounds OK, but comes without the rest of the BS. I recommend only chipset and GPU drivers to be fetched from respetive manufacturers' websites. Depending on the needs, network drivers too.
