    Got a Ryzen 9000 CPU in your gaming PC? You might need to watch out for this chip-killing bug




    • There have been more than 100 reports of AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D chips dying since launch
    • The majority of failures have occurred on ASRock motherboards
    • The cause of the issue has yet to be diagnosed

    Despite being one of the best processors on the market for PC gamers, AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D has been having a rough time since its launch in November last year. Reports of chip-killing burnouts have been steadily mounting, with more than 100 cases now reported.

    Thanks to the heroic work of Reddit user natty_overlord, a detailed compilation of CPU failure reports is available for all to peruse, and currently shows a total of 108 reports of dead 9800X3Ds. Most reports show the chip dying after only a few weeks or even days of use, with no apparent issues showing up before the moment of demise.
