I'm at my wits end, and don't know where else to post for help. I've scoured the web looking for answers, and have found nothing. So first some info:
I have a Ryzen 1800x CPU and Asrock Taichi x370 board with Samsung 950 SSD, Radeon 480 graphics and 64GB (4x16GB) 2400Mhz RAM. Problem is, I'm experiencing frequent freezes/lockups. There is nothing in the logs, since the freezes happen so fast. I just bought another motherboard (MSI x370 Carbon) and the same thing is happening.
I can't use a computer like this. I could be browsing a webpage or writing code, and the system will just suddenly lock up. There is no apparent pattern to when this will happen. My previous system was an Intel-based 6700K, and I would leave that running for days at a time, and when taking suspend into account, it would be running for months at a time. Now, I can hardly get through a 2-3 hour session before everything locks up.
I really hope I haven't been burned by the newest AMD hardware, because if this is the case, it will be a cold day in hell before I try AMD again. At this point, I'm considering going with the new Intel HEDT Skylake-X, but obviously I'd rather get the AMD stuff working, since I already have it and it's past the time to return it.
Please help me. This is causing much anxiety, and I can't get any work done at all.
