Thank you very much for looking at this for me. -j2b

AMD Ryzen processors have notorious memory compatibility issues. How many DIMMS did you start with before you found two that failed `memtest`... four? So you have two DIMMS installed now, correct? Edit your question and show me `free -h` and `sysctl vm.swappiness` and `sudo lshw -C memory` and `ls -al /var/crash`. Start comments to me with @heynnema or I'll miss them.

Is your CPU or RAM overclocked?

The two remaining DIMMS are in the wrong slots. They're in slot: DIMM_A1 and A2, and they should be in A1 and B1. Rerun `memtest` after moving them.

@heynnema - No, neither RAM nor CPU are overclocked. I got a gamer board because it supported the M.2 SSD, but I am not a gamer - I video edit and 3D model. I ordered replacement DIMMs and they arrived this afternoon. Rather than moving the DIMMs as you suggested, can I just add the two new DIMMS in the other two slots and run memtester? Any idea how 2 DIMMS could go bad? Could having the remaining DIMMS in the wrong slots have caused the hangs? If not, any idea what the problem is? I really don't want to have to replace the motherboard, but I've memtested the RAM and fscked the SSDs.

Populate the A1 and B1 slots first, with the remaining original DIMMS. Then put the new DIMMS into A2 and B2.

@heynnema - I did as you suggested after independently testing all four sticks of RAM. I will not feel comfortable until this machine runs without hanging for at least 3 days. Thank you again for your help. I know you don't know, but could you take an educated guess as to what could be going on here?

@heynnema - Thank you once again for your help - very appreciated. I have now let this machine run for a week. No hangs, no crashes, so it appears fixed. It seems it was initially bad RAM and then when I discovered this and removed the two bad sticks, the remaining sticks were not in the proper slots. The thing that continues to nag at me is - how in the world did TWO sticks of RAM go bad? Could static charge on a USB thumb drive damage RAM but not the motherboard? Because fortunately, the motherboard seems OK as evidenced by no problems for a week now?

Part #1 of question: Frequent System Hangs Requiring Hard Reboot

AMD Ryzen 9 3950X

G Skill Intl F4-3600C19-16GTRS 16G DIMMS

Note: AMD Ryzen processors have notorious memory compatibility issues.

Memtest (https://www.memtest86.com/ ) called out two bad DIMMS.

Replaced the two DIMMS and it's been running fine for one week now.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
