Windows 10: Random and frequent BSOD

Guys, I have just built a new PC.

After booting up, the system will randomly freeze and shut down with an error code DPC_WATCHDOG_VIOLATION. Then the collecting process will stuck at 0. After it reboot, it will not be able to find ssd which is my boot driver. Then reboot again it will boot successfully.

I have tried the ways I can find on the internet including reinstall the windows and update all the drivers for the hardware. Please help me!



My pc configuration is as followed:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3700x

GPU: ASUS RTX 2080 super

Motherboard: MSI X570 edge wifi

SSD: Samsung 970 evo plus 1TB

HDD: WD Black 4TB

Power: CORSAIR RM850x

RAM: G.Skill Trident Z Neo Series 32GB (2 x 16GB)



Please help! I am suffering

Frequent and random appearing BSOD 'internal power error'.


Hereby the result of step 5 and 6 for Model WDC WD10

Update:
I did steps 6 and 7:

BIOS reset. I choose the 'optimized defaults':







And then I did steps 8 through 11.

Next step is the memtest86+. I created a bootable DVD, and tested if it works. (It does.) I plan these memory-tests the coming nights.
However, I can't see how I can test every SDRAM module separately. How do I do that?

(NB: After closing my game yesterday, I got the first BSOD in weeks, with a (new) message: "reference by pointer".)

These tests didn't take long. Perhaps I missed a checkbox?

Also good to mention, I always get this message when starting " Samsung Magician":




I installed the SSD drive during Christmas 2016. I tried different drivers etc, but this message always came back.
As my PC worked perfectly at that time, I let it rest in the end and used the lastest microsoft driver that windows update installed.

As to the steps in post #22. I did not yet executed these steps, so I cannot give you an update just yet.
I hesitate a bit, because they seem to bring me in a new level of computer repair&analysis - into an area that is new to me. A bit out of my "comfort zone", and I need time to familiarize myself with these enhanced steps, so that I feel myself capable enough of doing them, without fearing to screw up my PC. Please give me some time for this. I will try to do this during this weekend.

I also didn't come round into doing steps 10 and 11 from post #8. Should I still do these?
