 I keep getting some applications that are freezing up. I've tried loading optimized BIOS, disabling HT, disabling VTX and I just can't seem to corner the culprit that's accosting my machine.

Okay, sorry guys, I have found the culprit. It was my roommate pranking me.

Needless to say it's working now, and working flawlessly. Thank you for your time and interest.
