Specs - R7 1700 - X370 Gaming X - 32GB DDR4 - GTX 1070 - 2x Samsung 970 Evo + 1x HDD I recently replace my 2x Samsung 850 Evo to 2x Samsung 970 Evo. I put those those drives in both M.2 slot (M2_1 & M2_2), bios recognize both drive and windows installation (Win 10 1809) was fine. Usually after fresh install I use cinebench (test cpu), 3dmark (test gpu), & userbenchmark (test computer). The problem is 3Dmark always giving me bsod, and Userbenchmark runs fine until gpu benchmark and then bsod, meanwhile Cinebench will runs just fine. Running in windows environment, like watching youtube, browsing web, some light task will do just fine, as long I don't stress all the components together. I did try only using single drive in both m.2 slot but the result is the same, I though my both samsung 970 evo was bad, so I decided to throw new Adata SX8200 Pro and it still giving me bsod. Took used kingston A1000 from other PC and still the same result. It doesn't play nice with any NVMe drive I use, and BSOD always the same each time ==> "Stop code: CRITICAL PROCESS DIED" But if I return to SATA samsung 850 Evo everything works just fine. I wanna assume the main culprit is the m.2 slot, but I still haven't test it with m.2 SATA drives since I don't have it. Any input will be great

I manage to find the culprit who cause the bsod on all nvme drive plus abnormal audio jack, its either Corsair link and it's USB driver  I just realize all this stuff happen after I switch to Corsair h100i v2 , never though that aio would cause such problems though
