first off i would try a test with all bios /setup defaults

eg the ram at 2133 etc

it really could be anything
this week i diagnosed a psu as faulty over the telephone (after quite a while) all software monitors were showing it very very stable for voltages and yet it was indeed cutting out

the point is its very hard to diagnose some issues esp. if not right in front of you

if you suspect a ram issue try running memtest in dos ?

ASRock Fatal1ty AB350 Gaming K4, AM4 MoBo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZgpHTaQ10k

Hey if your having trouble pushing your RAM to higher frequency, watch this video and try my method. Earlier on I had trouble going past 2667Mhz on my Ryzen 1700 using ASRock B350 gaming K4 MoBo with Corsair vengeance ddr4 3000. However after watching this video I set the dram timing manually to 15-17-17-17-35 and set the ProcODT to 40ohm and just bumped up the VDDP voltage to 0.980v to 1.1v and left the dram voltage at default 1.35v. And what do you know? It worked! Now it's running at rated time of 2933Mhz.  So my final sweet-spot is 3.925Ghz CPU @ 1.39v/ But CPUZ see it as 1.328volts and DDR4-2933 with all of the settings I've mentioned above at 1.35v dram voltage. Also on CPU side, I disabled: cool&quiet, c6 mode, & global c-state control, all disabled. Now it's 100% stable. Big smile
