I built this computer about 3 years ago. It was fine for about 6 months before then bsod started. It doesn't always crash out with the same error but most recently it has been memory management. I started with reseating the RAM and no fix. I've replaced the RAM with mobo recommended RAM. no fix. I've replaced my SSD also with no fix. The last thing I've done is reapplied thermal paste to the cpu and made sure it was mounted well with the cooling block. Only thing i can think that's left to do is replace the Mobo and CPU.

It just looks like memory from the dump files. Because you replaced the RAM, the CPU would be the main suspect. If the memory controller fails it will just look like RAM, but Zen 2 also has a quirk where a faulty CPU almost always looks like memory. It doesn't really matter which part failed, just to illustrate that it's more common to see this on Zen 2. 

 

Updating the BIOS is worth a shot. The board has flashback so even if it crashes and corrupts the BIOS, it should be able to recover from that by following the flashback steps.

Sorry for the late reply. I've updated the bios around July. And a week ago I did remove the cpu and applied new thermal paste. I currently use 32gb of tridentz royal.
