Asus Xonar D2X - not compatible with X370/B350/X470 series MBs

Same as https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1036071, Asus Xonar DX2 is giving random resets with X370/B350/X470: Ryzen CPU cache-related crash.

Took me half a year to find out. I've debugged crash dumps, learned about how Ryzen works internally (roughly), RMA-ed it, changed all the software I use to ones that sync with Internet continuously. Then pulled out Xonar and crashes stopped. Wasn't sure and waited with selling it till confirmation about STXII surfaced. Selling it now replacing with SMSL M6. A bit sad since Xonar sound is very good.

What motherboard do you have? The incompatibility issues might be specific to some motherboards, as not all of those who have a Ryzen system and a Asus Xonar card experience problems (#1, #2, #3).
