Community reports Ryzen 7 9800X3D burning incidents However, despite the high market evaluation, there have been reports of Ryzen 7 9800X3D burning incidents in the community. According to the report by technology media HKEPC, a Reddit community user named TrumpPooPooPants stated in the forum yesterday (13th) that he purchased a Ryzen 7 9800X3D with an MSI MAG X870 Tomahawk motherboard. Suddenly, his computer failed to start, and the motherboard displayed a Debug error code 00. Further inspection revealed that the CPU and the metal contact points on the AM5 slot were burned out. Although it seems like an isolated case, in order to gain a deeper understanding of the burning situation, Gamers Nexus, also known as the 'Gaming Jesus,' decided to purchase this burned Ryzen 7 9800X3D from the user. In addition to TrumpPooPooPants, another community user @harukaze5719 tweeted today (14th) that a user on the well-known Korean technology forum quarzone also encountered a similar situation: Korean user 김티졔 (Kim Tije) experienced a similar problem using the same motherboard. Could this be a problem with the specific motherboard? Coincidentally, both motherboards paired with the Ryzen 7 9800X3D are MSI MAG X870 Tomahawk. However, it is still unclear whether the problem lies with the motherboard or the CPU, and further investigation is needed. Source: HKEPC Potential buyers should wait and see On the other hand, due to the rapid sell-out of Ryzen 7 9800X3D in Europe and America, coupled with scalpers' speculation, the supply of this CPU is currently unable to meet the demand. In addition, Original House and AutoBuy have recently listed Ryzen 7 9800X3D, but they are only available as part of a complete system and cannot be purchased separately. 'Complete system assembly' refers to assembling various computer components such as the motherboard, CPU, memory, storage devices, and graphics card into a complete system that can boot up and run an operating system normally. However, the definition of complete system assembly is broad, and the configuration may vary. The cause of the burning incidents in this case has not been determined yet. For gamers who are waiting for the Ryzen 7 9800X3D, it is better to wait and see if there are other cases. If other motherboards also encounter problems, then we may need to see how AMD will handle it in the future.
