Hi All!
I'm here to inform you that my Asus Crosshair VI Hero has killed the 2nd 1700X in 3 months (The CPUs were @ default).
First time, 3 months ago (After 3 months of service).
My rig was:
Ryzen 7 1700X
BIOS 1701
2x4GB Patriot Viper 4 3000 MHz
SSD OCZ Trion 100
Chieftec ECO 600 Watt
Powercolor RedDevil RX480
Second time, one week ago.
My rig is:
Ryzen 7 1700X
BIOS 3008
2x8GB Patriot 4 3400 MHz
SSD M.2 Intel 600P
CoolerMaster V650 650W
XFX Fury X
First time, error 08. Second time, error 02. I have a Ryzen 1500X as backup, and it works (Also, I have 2 other Ryzen on Gigabyte boards and these CPUs work perfectly 24/7)
After first 1700X dead, I noticed it to AMD Italia, and they replaced my CPU with a new one. I thought was a defective sample. But even the new one died after 3 months of service. So, the problem is 99.9% the mainboard: there are huge vCore peaks, even in idling. 😕
I think I'll sold my CH6H. I can't change the CPU every 3 months.

RMA the motherboard with details of the voltage spikes...
Selling it on seems mean spirited to put it politely
If you sold it to me

Hmmm...well, I'd have thought they would be the first to want to sort it out...?

I'll RMA to Asus ... even because it was an AMD gift for my review rig. 😛

If this is a review board/pc - reach out to your pr contact. Is this a joke?
