In the last couple weeks, I've had stability issues with Mint Linux 20 and the Ryzen processor. My system would completely freeze requiring hard reset multiple times a day.

Here is what has worked to eliminate freezing:

1) Disabled C6 state in BIOS
2) Set "Typical Current Idle" in BIOS
3) In Grub, updated to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quite splash processor.max_cstate=0"
4) In Grub, updated to: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="idle=nowaite"
5) Enable nvidia-persistenced (This solved high CPU usage issue that would occur after a few hours of use)

Latest stable SC version for Linux: 2146.

Also, once programmers of two key custom studies I use successfully work through several newer version issues, I'll start Linux testing versions above 2146 and recompiling my own custom studies.
