rzotti has a very valid point. Its not always about the MOBO and CPU.
OP thanks for answering the questions.
Freeze ups are almost always ram. Have you set the ram manually or XMP?
Have you thinned out the sticks starting with only one (look in the manual it will show you which slot.
Is your OS set up correctly for virtual memory is you are not running a large kit?
Whats getting me here is you were running fine until the CMOS was reset.
I would spend some time in there with a fine tooth comb to see whats going on but also keep an open mind that that could have been pure coincidence and you could drive yourself bonkers chasing a cat under water.
Other things that cannot be ruled out
Corrupted OS
Faulty drive partition or sectors (have you tried installing the OS on the Samsung)
Faulty memory controller on the CPU
You can always contact ASUS and open a ticket. Its best to do it online, it may take longer in between responses but then you have a paper trail. and better chance of escalation if its deemed to be your MOBO.
Something else to keep in mind is this board is brand new, just on the market as is the entire architecture with the chipset and CPUs. Early adopters always get to be the guinea pigs no matter what it is. Sometimes things go flawlessly, others they don't. Yes I wish things had more time to be developed before going to market but we are the driving force behind that. Dont believe me, How hard was it to find an RVIE and 7980XE? Competition between brands is healthy for the market but AMD and Intel are steadily pushing the market too fast. What they don't get is most of the enthusiast market is loyal to one or the other.

I am running also a 7980XE + Rampage VI bios 0802 combo, OS (W10) is on a Samsung 960 EVO NVME plugged into the onboard M.2_1(Socket 3). Tested the system with 3200 CL 14 TridentZ modules and had freezes really often*, changed over to an older RipJaws Kit and it seemed stable but isn't. Had a freeze after 56% memtest.
I am running everything on stock with optimized defaults and RAM clocked to 1066, so not even XMP.
System just freezes where it was, screens stay on, no reboot, no bluscreen, just the desktop or whatever was running. I think the power light on my case turns off, while the HDD led is on permanently.
Never had a faulty CPU and I had the idea the RVIE was delayed to fit the 7980XE first place.
*during boot, entering desktop, in game, during memtest - no visible pattern load or idle.

If it goes away when you increase memory related voltages (DRAM voltage and SA voltage), or relax memory timings, then it's memory instability. I'd try that at stock settings so you get some indication of where it's coming from. You can use fewer memory modules, relax memory timings, and try different voltages to see if that impacts it.
