Make sure you're on the latest motherboard BIOS: https://www.asrock.com/MB/AMD/X670E%20Steel%20Legend/index.asp#BIOS

I'm using the latest stable BIOS (2.02). Do you think one of the beta versions would help?

Possibly. It's up to you if you want to try it. Some prefer not to install the beta ones.

An update:

I had time to pull my (known working) GTX 970 out of my old system and put it into the new one. It seems to be working perfectly; drivers installed with no issues and system restarts cause no problems. It sure seems like it must be the new GPU that's at fault, though I'd love to hear thoughts from others with more experience (the last time I built a computer was ~2015, so it's been quite a while).

It's a decent bet that the GPU has an issue.

I'm thinking I need to return this motherboard and get a new one. Does this seem like a reasonable conclusion?

Yes, you could try that.
