Make sure you have enabled XMP or DOCP, instead of purely ramming frequency up to 3600MHz

I assume you could overclock the memory to 3600, but the processor officially only supports up to 3200.  Try that first, then you can fiddle around with it

Increase the voltage to 1.37v (completely safe) and see if it crashes again.

Dont adjust the DRAM voltage. Up your SOC voltages and see. You are safe up to 1.2v on the SOC. This is the most common cause of DRAM instability with Ryzen chips, more so on older generations than current, but still the most viable and likely option at this point for stability.
