This is not the same freeze issue that I see other people having. Got my B3 board a few weeks back, and for 2 weeks now I've had this problem, and I have not been able to fix it. This problem did not happen with my older board.

When I am using my PC in Windows nothing will happen and everything will work just fine, but if I leave it for maybe 5-30min and come back it will be in a slowed down state. Some applications will run just fine, but others will load 10 times longer then normal. Doing CTRL ALT DELETE will take 15 seconds before popping up, normally this would take 0.1 seconds. All I can do to fix it is to restart my PC.

I've tried many bios settings without luck. Even formatted my PC this weekend, but did not help at all. I'm out of ideas and would really appreciate some help to fix this issue!

Tried updating firmware for your SSD?

Tried disabling the suspend power states for the hard drive in the Windows power settings? (Not bios)
 
Hello I hadn't noticed there was a new firmware! Went ahead and updated it straight away. Thanks for this. I went from 320 score in AS SSD to 435.

As for the windows power settings I have on High Performance and turned off sleep, and never turn off hard drives.

Going to bed now, but will test tomorrow and see if the firmware upgrade fixed the problem. Thanks.
