I'm also experiencing severe and constant crashes with a Ryzen 5 3600X. I also had problems with my Ryzen 7 1700 and I was confident that the problem was never going to have problems again with my Ryzen 5 3600X, but I was wrong.

First months everything was fine, and after reinstalling the system, everything went wrong. Crashes daily and constantly. I had a critical Git repository corrupted (luckily I could recover things in time), but it completely destroyed my experience with my PC and actually become a financial gap as I use the computer to work on.

Not sure what to do. I've decided to try until the end of this year not to have more crashes, but as a Linux user, I'm unsure I will ever think about buying AMD again. I will always remember about the hassle and lost years I had with this.

Sometimes all you want to do is to have a great experience with your Linux computer and BOOM, a hard freeze that requires manually turning the computer off. It's ridiculous. To be honest, I expected much more from AMD. I hope they'll fix it ASAP, we can't stand this anymore. Intel becomes our only option with this problem.

I also opened an issue where I'm posting updates about my problems: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208615
