OCCT reports instability with Ryzen 7 3800X model.
Adjust your RAM, reset the CMOS, and rearrange the sticks. The unit you used for A2 will move to B2 now—give it a try. It might feel odd, but I understand. I also have a configuration with a preferred slot setup.
It could be due to a mismatch in slot orientation or a hardware issue, even if you haven't changed your RAM slots.
Use established stability checks instead of guesswork. Run Prime95 with Small FFTs for an hour to assess CPU performance. Perform Memtest86 on RAM for three hours. Let me know if any issues arise during testing. Download links: Prime95 – https://www.mersenne.org/download/, Memtest86 – https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm
Prime95 operates at high temperatures, so running it for an hour could be beneficial depending on your system's cooling capacity.
