iMac 2020 rebooting issue

I am having an issue with my new iMac rebooting it is a retina 5K 27" 2020. I install 64GB RAM from OWC when I first bought it. It happens about once a day or every other day over the last few weeks. I have been using the computer for about 8 weeks and it s only been the last 3 or so weeks this has been happening. I run Adobe Creative Suite, but nothing doing anything too robust. I do a lot of Zoom and Team meetings so this is really causing an issue. Thanks in advance for your ideas

iMac 27″, macOS 10.15

Please remove the OWC RAM and then test with the original RAM . If the restarts cease, then you know it is related to the OWC RAM. In that case, please call OWC and discuss so they can assist you.


64GB is a lot of RAM so you should not have any shortages so I would not focus on the amount of RAM installed.
