Yes, update the Mobo Drivers, then install the Strix card - should do the trick - had a similar issue with my ASUS RANGER mobo, Its a compatibility issue with the Haswell chip I believe.

Though you may want to clean the partially installed Strix drivers first

EDIT - ha ha, just looked at your PC spec - almost the same as me, though looks like my budget was a little bigger :)

Hope it fixes it mate - just as a matter of interest - you don't have the NetGear Genie software installed do you? It had all sorts of conflict issues with the ASUS Software and was causing lock ups and freezing on my build - specifically with the Disk Unlocker software so I could mount my 3TB drive as a single Partition. Check the Windows Event viewer as Administrator too - there may be additional info on the cause of the BSOD if the BIOS update does not help.
