So with the Corsair Headset driver and Control Panel uninstalled, I managed to play Far Cry 4 for 2+ hours without any problems, Ill have a game on CS:GO with the FPS uncapped and see if theres any problems.

2 full games of CS:GO around an hour, still no problems, could it of really being the headset driver? Is there a way I can still use the headset? I love that headset.

Installed the Corsair Driver again, went on CS:GO and I blue screened within 20 minutes of uncapped FPS, So im certain its that driver causing it.

Very strange - there were no indications that it was to blame!
Glad that you've pinned it down!
