Hey everyone, I faced a similar problem before. It’s been months of struggle. After swapping the motherboard, people suggested adding QVL RAM and using just two sticks. I followed their advice. The computer worked well for five days, then it started restarting randomly eight times in a row. The intervals between restarts are getting smaller. There were no errors or BSODs—no crash files, nothing visible in the event viewer, only unexpected shutdowns. The PSU and BIOS were checked by service too. One RAM stick changed to static rainbow lights after a restart, and if I switch it back to moving ones, they become out of sync. All drivers are current, and I’m unsure what to do next—should I sell this build and go with Team Blue, or just part with the whole PC?

Checked the case and assessed whether removing the front panel could explain the issue. Tested the surge protector's age. Verified if the home electrical setup includes correct grounding. Also inquired about whether a UPS unit is being used.

When your AM5 motherboard shows instability, it may attempt to create a memory or CPU overclock. Have you adjusted the voltage or settings on any components of your system?
