One thing that just jumps out at me; CX pw supply. Corsair sells some fine pw supplies however the cx series is NOT one of them. The cx series is for a basic build; ie onboard/on chip video, running office, email, etc NOT running a gaming video card.
The very first thing I would do would be to swap in a quality pw supply that is designed for running a gaming type card. If you want to stay with corsair, the ONLY ones I recommend for a gaming or overclocking system are the AX, HX, or RM models. Corsair [like many other mfg] do not mfg their own pw supplies. The high end corsairs are mfg by seasonic. The low end ones ie VS, CX are mfg by CTW [maker of a LOT of oem stuff] In effect, you have the equivalent of a dell or hp pw supply.
The ram should be fine. I have used corsair LPX ram in quite a few ryzen builds and I have not encountered any issues.
I checked the support page for your motherboard. There are a number of bios updates that address system performance/stability. Have you updated to the latest bios? If you do decide to update the bios, be sure you read and FULLY understand the flashing procedure. While a bios update is not difficult, an incorrect flash can render your board unbootable ie junk.
The ONLY way I ever update the bios on an asus board is by using EZflash which is a utility built into the bios and not a windows based flash utility.

After my most recent ram failure I checked the bios and it did need a large update which I did via EZflash. My setup is not overclocked and I do not plan to overclock anytime in the future but i will start looking for a better power supply.
