Just want to do a quick update.

Went down to Tech Dynamic and managed to convince them to exchange the motherboard for me. And yes it really did take some convincing that it is not due to incompatible storage(both SSDs are on the QVL) or RAM(swapped with other RAM still crash).

Swapped the board and everything seems to be fine. Will monitor and update if something unexpected comes up.

Probably a failed BIOS update.

Glad to see your starting to see some stability :)

Good that they replaced the board for you.

If it is a failed BIOS update, it is very troubling information for me. Reason is because I feel the BIOS flashing on Asrock board seems very prone to issues. While I don't flash BIOS often, my experience with Asrock's BIOS update isn't that great. I ran into teething issues 2 out of 3 times when flashing the BIOS. Not that I enjoyed flashing BIOS, but I had to flash it out of necessity so that it supports Ryzen 3xxx. Now that it works, I strongly recommend not to tamper with the BIOS again (of course unless something is broken and can only be fixed by a BIOS update).
