    Question 4x8GB 3600MHz ram not stable

If your BIOS doesn't have that option then you need a BIOS update or a new motherboard. Anyhow, for Ryzen you should dive into a lot of...

    [SOLVED] HDD failure

    To answer your question : yes you should run windows from an SSD to gain max. performance. For the HDD i'd say try a different SATA connection. If that doesn't make a difference you can check your BIOS to see if it detects the HDD at all. If not then the HDD might be dead. Also do not forget to...

    [SOLVED] M.2 SSD Problems

    Overheating is probably the cause since it happens after a certain period of time elapsed when in use. The temperature you describe at idle is way to hot !

    [SOLVED] Gigabyte B450M DS3H CMOS and power issue

    I just realized it could be that your motherboard is short-circuiting. Check if your motherboard is not accidently touching the metal case at unwanted locations. Also it's possible that some screw might be stuck between the motherboard and casing causing the short-circuit. Anyhow, check for...

    Question b450m ds3h won't start with 4 ram sticks

    I think it has to do with the fact that your RAM doesn't support low voltage settings. (min. 1.2 volts) The auto-boost function of the AMD Ryzen will try to lower this voltage most of the time but in your case it can not. This might trick the cpu into thinking you are using overclocked memory...
