BSOD's, freezes and crashes with two RAM sticks
So, I've bought everything new: Ryzen 5 2600, HyperX Predator RGB 8GB RAM memory and B450 Tomahawk Max mobo.

All fine, I played for like 5-6 days 0 issues. Then when I've got my second 8GB stick of the same RAM ofcourse + new SSD, I have done a system reboot and put another 8GB and SSD in..

Here is the problem, when I have 2x8GB ram, PC freezes after 5-20minutes of doint anything or playing a game. I tried changing all different stuff in BIOS but 0 effect, it freezes and I can only hard reset the PC.

Now when i got 1 RAM stick out, it works perfectly fine...

Tho its the exact same RAM as the other one, they are set as: A (B) C (D) in the slots

Anyone possibly know whats the issue with having two ram sticks at once?

Update: PC just had BSOD with KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR which is also known for a bad sector, virus, a hard disk error or a failing RAM memory... So theres that, I am getting a new stick after all
Was that stick that failed brand new? If so you should be able to RMA it.

Also, did you try my suggestion of clearing your CMOS to clear out any stored RAM training data that might be causing your motherboard to make assumptions, especially if the SPD data of the two sticks is identical?
Yo, I'm currently have a problem with my PC freezing after 5-10 minutes but I haven't changed any hardware and I've tried looking into it but I can't find anything wrong
Update2: Ive tried putting both sticks in 1- 3 order but mobo doesnt support that and starts beeping at start. Now even first stick that worked all the time has started crashing so only what i can think of is that the CPU doesnt go well with this RAM

Yes, everything in the PC is brand new from like a week ago and no, i am lazy trying anything else cause both are crashing now, seems like the cpu isnt going well with this RAM together.. I will take RAM from a friend and try playing with it for few days and see if it crashes still
Ive also tried memtest86 and 0 errors were found
Did you try to set the ram frequency to the next lower variant of the ram you bought?
This might help to get two rams run together.

Also, make sure you have the right timings set. No need to do it manually. Just make sure it fits for now.

That is a hint.
What changed for that bar?

This is why I suggested clearing the CMOS, to force the motherboard to re-calibrate. Yes OP says it's a new motherboard but swapping the Clear CMOS jumper to clear then to normal again only reverts the motherboard to factory default.

Has the bios been updated at all? sometimes this can help with compatibility and it would clear cmos/bios at the same time BUT it can be risky depending on your motherboard especially if you have faulty ram as it can cause corruption during updating which can brick your motherboard.
If you are lazy I'd just recommend getting get it looked at by someone competent. Good luck

I tried every single thing possible, the only option is new RAM that goes well with the CPU

But the first stick was fine before?

Once again, why I suggest resetting CMOS, so any stored calibrations get cleared out.

And there is nothing different when you tested the old one? It is exactly like before?
Update: seems like its SSD or Mobo thats making the problem after all lol... my PC is in service for 3 days and they tried everything except changing the SSD or mobo, will find out soon if thats the problem..
