The Crucial BX200 SSD has one of the worst Sustained write speeds available.. With a killer mobo like that i would suggest buying a samsung evo nvme drive.. I dont know where you have Apex legend installed but it is likely that your 6000 rpm hitachi drive offers better write speeds though i do not recommend installing apex on it..

To take off load from ssd:
-disable amd shader cache (will stress cpu)
-disable windows page filing/virtual memory (can cause system crash/problems)
-perform a windows drive optimization (trim function)
-make sure the ssd is set to AHCI in the bios

Also
-dont have ram specs but if it is running above 2666 i would set it back to equal or lower
-disable amd crossfire
-disable intel speedstep in the bios
-disable origin overlay

        I bought an Samsung 970 EVO SSD with a fresh Windows Installation... same procedure! Freezes nearly in every Game.

        Installed all Windows Updates & update all drivers (with Driver Booster 6).

        What the hell is going on here ?!
