new PC keeps freezing

[yaya1]

So I just put together my "new" PC consisting of a Ryzen 7 2700X on a Gigabyte AX370M-Gaming 3 with my old R9 380 Nitro 4GB and my old 16 gigs of RAM and it keeps freezing and can't seem to find the reason why... :(

and PSU model? 

 

Try use one stick of RAM and see if problem persist.

Will try using just one stick, especially given they're of different speeds and all of that.
My PSU's a Xilence 630W 80+ Bronze: https://www.xilence.net/en/power-supplies/12
Have had it for three years and I don't really remember having any issues with it.

First of all. Try with "better" psu. While 80+bronze is not bad, have not heard about Xilence and 630W is odd.

Check with one ram stick. Check whit different speeds using ryzen master. Can you tell us the model of your ram by using cpuz and openind "SPD" tab.

It could be your cpu. See temps whit hwinfo64 and make sure they are under 100c. Cehck your cpu in another  system

Could be an CPU pressure issue, xsilence is a german brand btw, so i guess the psu should be ok...ish

 

Prüf mal ob die CPU und der Kühler richtig sitzt klingt als läge da das problem

So, I tried using my PC with just one stick of ram in different slots, but it doesn't really seem to do anything. Also, I've noticed quite some differences in the time it "takes" my pc to freeze. So I was just watching something for a good 10 minutes, although I think the pc's locked up sooner before...

EDIT: The CPU cooler seems to be sat flush with the cpu...

Right after submitting my last edit, it crashed again. Although this time, it BSODed and it said clock_watchdog_timeout, which from what I've read would support @Artherion's thesis of something being off about the CPU.

@Jonas_2909Good luck, there's a dead Threadripper Board right behind me

So, I tried a coupla things.
Not only did I pull off the heatsink which by the way was seated perfectly if I do say so myself(jk, it was mounted properly tho), and I accidentally pulled the CPU out with it and got the cooler stuck, which is probably how I bent some of the pins. After I-don't-know-how-long of carefully cleaning them up and bending them back, I installed the mainboard's drivers in order to eliminate some variables. When all of a sudden, the PC didn't wanna boot anymore(we're talking off of the new SSD I freshly installed windows onto just today), I "refreshed" it through Windows' repairing thingy and installed the drivers again, only for the machine to crash over and over.
So I'm back on my old set of 2 HDDs and my SSD now and I haven't had a crash in about two hours - granted with only one of my two sticks of ram as I haven't really had the urge to put the other one back in just yet, although I expect it to work -, so especially given the SSD isn't on the mobo's compatibility list, I'm guessing that's what caused the errors and might return it if further testing proves this hypothesis right.
 

Thanks for all of your thoughts, opinions, and advice! xqcL

@Jonas_2909 lulwhat?!... never expected that the SSD is the Problem

Neither, but I can't really think of anything else that could've caused the crashes considering everything's fine when I don't boot off of it...

@Jonas_2909At least the problem is solved, what about your ryzen master prob in the other thread ?
