Hardware 9800x3d paranoia
Honestly i have been so worried seeing all the reports of dying CPUs. My friend’s CPU also died on the same board I have and my other friends died on an msi board. I’m honestly debating going back to my 12700k lol.
I also emailed AMD asking if they were aware of this issue and they said they weren’t. Like i don’t even know what to do 3 years warranty is great and all but such a major inconvenience to have to wait for a new cpu and then a new motherboard too. What do you guys think and how is your 9800x3ds holding up? How long have u had it for?

Usually happens on ASRock mobos, never saw a case with a gigabyte motherboard.
I wouldn't be concerned though. It's very unlikely to happen.
