Are AMD's Ryzen 5000 CPU failure rates as high as claimed?
- Thread starter WYP
- Start date
and keep in mind that the guy (i think it is just one guy building PC´s) had claimed on his website that he does it for 22 years and has build nearly 800! PC´s. 
800 PC´s in 22 years.... that´s one guy in his basement but not a big company.
and you can be sure that with his failure rates i would NEVER buy a PC from him.
that wccftech has published this tweet without any further investigation is a sad joke.
ps:
for what it´s worth.... the only DOA CPU i had in 28 years of building my own PC´s (including for family and friends) was an intel 486 DX.

AMD did cheapen the packaging compared to the 3000 series. I was quite surprised at the little amount of packaging protection for my 5950X but no problems for me. There does seem to be a hint of FUD about AMD on some social media platforms getting more traction in the last few weeks. The 'Pat' effect at Intel perhaps?

I remember crunching the corner of a Duron before, still worked though. I'm at maybe 20 machines in 30 years, but they all worked. Can't say he's not trying but maybe after 800 or so, maybe he should look into another career path
it is not about bend pins.
it´s DOA cpus that had no bend pins but would not work.
the typical internet comment trolls blame it on TSMC.
that they lowered production quality of the 7nm process to satisfy demand.
it´s all complete bollocks, because one guy tweeted from his basement.
