I'd look at your cooler mounting...and test your RAM stick by stick....corruption on fresh OS install means something is definitely not working somewhere
I'd be tempted to strip things down clean it and set up on the MB box a minimal install. Make sure the OS image you are installing is freshly downloaded...

I would suspect the RAM personally (RAM IMC on CPU)...the corruption, the multiple boots... probably RAM training...all the CSM stuff I would regard as a red herring...but I may be wrong...

It's my understanding that memTest86 is not particularly useful on that or even later platforms. People tend to rely more on HCI memtest (free just make sure you launch enough instances to cover memory) RamTest (paid but much faster testing)
I'd try to raise SA voltage a bit...say 1.0v or a touch more...see if that stops boot loops...
Something is not right if you are corrupting fresh OS install so obviously passing some tests is to be taken with a pinch of salt for the moment...if something is borderline it will take quite a lot of testing and patience....

Just so we are on the same page....how are you running HCI...one instance per thread and 90% memory?
