A Reddit user on the r/pcmasterrace subreddit reported that their new AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU and MSI Tomahawk X870 motherboard burned up after installation. The user initially believed that a BIOS incompatibility caused the issue, but later shared pictures of a damaged socket and bent pins, leading many users to speculate that the CPU was incorrectly installed. While some users blamed the motherboard, others cautioned against jumping to conclusions, citing previous instances of similar CPU failures with the AMD 7800X3D, and pointing to user error as the likely cause. The user ultimately planned to return both the CPU and the motherboard to the retailers, and many commenteders eagerly awaited an analysis from the YouTube channel Gamer's Nexus, which is known for its detailed hardware reviews and investigations.
