I have an Asus Prime X370-pro and a Ryzen 7 1700 that I bought in late 
April.  Make sure you have the latest BIOS for these boards or else it 
will randomly freak out.

While i haven't used it much with FreeBSD, I can confirm that I had a 
lot of stability issues solved with a December BIOS update on 
MidnightBSD. I back ported the shared page fix and amdtemp.  (it's 
basically FreeBSD 9.1)

I couldn't even get it to boot until the August BIOS update.  I've had 
my box stay up at least a week, and it's my primary development box so 
I'm mostly doing src/ports builds all the time on it.

If you have the latest BIOS, check the memory timings too.  It's rather 
picky with some memory modules.
