Is this a fault in LGAs perhaps?
Watch Lemmy and Reddit downplay this because it’s perfect AMD and not evil Intel.
I wanna believe!
did you read the article. the phenomena is basically tied to asrock and aggressive dynamic voltage values, while other oems voltage values are near static.
while amd isnt a saint by any means, reading just the headline is extremely misleading.
Clickbait title.
TL;DW:
ASRock mobos are exhibiting dynamic SOC voltage fluctuations which may be causing damage to 9000 series CPUs due to demanding too high power draw in a short amount of time.The fix may be in changing the “SOC OC” mode from auto to disable in UEFI settings.
- long term fix will be an AGESA/UEFI update from ASRock if this is the primary source of problems.
