There is a very popular thread on Reddit featuring a picture of one of the Ryzen 7 7800X3D. But this is not a story from a happy user because the CPU in question died. The processor has suddenly burned out and there is now a small bulge on the CPU. Unfortunately for this user, the CPU is no longer operational and so is the expensive motherboard.

It looks like this case is not isolated and most cases of this kind have one thing in common, and that’s the ASUS motherboard. It is said that the company has recently taken down the latest BIOS, possibly to avoid any potential problems for users. However, it is said that the ASUS voltage regulator mechanism might be to blame. Russian YouTuber and technician Vik-Off had a similar problem with Ryzen 9 7950X3D on an ASUS ROG motherboard recently:

GPD, a long-time AMD partner known for their clamshell design handheld consoles, has introduced the Win Max 2. Their product lineup predominantly features AMD hardware due to its graphics performance compared to Intel chips. However, the Win Max 2 is encountering delays, and GPD is attributing this setback to AMD.

In an update posted on their crowdfunding page, GPD has shed light on the shipment delays for the Win Max 2, which stem from an insufficient supply of AMD chips. These processors were intended to be delivered in batches, but it appears that the second batch of Ryzen 7 7840U APUs did not arrive as scheduled. The company has even gone so far as to accuse AMD of breaching their contract by failing to deliver chips on time to their upstream supplier, which has seemingly led to the production delays for the console.

they shoulda have gone with intel instead . meh
