Try disabling Cool & Quiet,it will make the CPU clock speed and voltage fixed.

If it happened to 2 in a row then it could be that the power is dirty,dirty power can cause a lot of issues and damage electronics,use a surge protector if you have one.

Good B450 boards will overclock no problem even with a 3900X. It depends on what board you have,I have a good B450 board and can overclock it no problem.

What is your budget? I will recommend a full part list.

Try testing the CPU with Prime95 in Small FFTs mode. Tell us if you get any errors or warnings.

It is thicker than the Gaming OC, But the Gaming OC is longer.
