Yeah i saw the post earlier today, with the plastic on the side chipped it was obviously (in my opinion) not installed correctly, probably rotated when installed and forced in.
Before watching this video, it's already been confirmed as user error. People just don't want to admit their mistakes, pushing the blame on manufacturers.
He never blamed MSI or AMD. Throughout the thread he's saying he could have made the mistake and people are acting like he's not saying that. So weird.
Shit happens. Phone rings and your 10mil from the socket and dropped onto 1300-1700 fingers. 😂😂❤❤. I’ve only ever broke one cpu knock knock. I hate that socket but we all live with it. I do know at the end of the line at the manufacture one person drops a cpu gpu ram and bench test 10-12 boards every 20 mins. That socket like jay said may have been damaged before or it’s a Newegg return 😂❤
I mean that socket was pretty fucked up. He has to have forced it pretty hard. But I said the whole time that the pins were shorter somehow but then someone pointed out the damage the plastic on the socket and I knew it was user error.

Don't we already have that with the arrow in the corner? I mean, cmon, read the directions if its that hard. I'm sure the motherboard and cpu both have a set of instructions on proper cpu installation. Tired of this apple-esque need to baby everything down just so you can reach the lowest common denominator and sell more product.
And that is why you must wiggle CPU in socket before closing the bracket, obviously CPU sat on that plastic edge and key and totally crushed it preventing contacts from developing enough pressure causing high resistance and then damage from heat, i am willing to bet that if he cleaned those contacts on CPU and put it in another motherboard it would work just fine.
Personally, I would never wiggle a CPU in a LGA socket especially. Maybe ever so slightly if it hasn't seated. I really truly feel like the wiggle thing is for am4 so that way it seats into the socket with those pins. You do you but just be careful
That was part of Jay's takeaway at the end.... I think he did this to try and prevent Steve from making a mistake lol. Steve getting scammed on this one.
There are 2, but they are both user error. The OP on reddit is mad at Jayz2Centz because he called him out for playing the victim. He then continues to argue the CPU was oriented correctly but wasn't sure if it was seated correctly. We all saw the picture bro, it wasn't seated and he continues to play the victim. We will see what they find, blah blah blah. You already know it was you bro... Gamer's Nexus just paid someone, that claims he built 12 PCs prior, for misaligning the CPU and forcing it into failure.
A singular case of this happening when all the 9800x3d cpus have been purchased and are currently OOS, I see this as user error currently but am open to being proven wrong. I worked at microcenter for a few years as a service tech, and I cannot tell you how many times I had to work on personal builds under diagnostics only to find that the CPU was installed wrong, bending the pcb of the cpu itself. Also seen people that put the cpu sticker that comes with it on the actual IHS under the thermal paste… I had to tell someone that had his “engineering friend” build it for him, that he had to replace the 5820k because it was installed upside down, they didn’t pay attention to the notches in the pcb of the cpu and the socket of the mobo. Super expensive mistake.
Whenever I hear of user error as a software engineer, I remember this quote 'Software engineering is the act of attempting to create idiot proof software while the universe creates bigger idiots, so far the universe is winning '
"Aim gun away away from face" - "Do not eat desiccant/laundry detergent pack" - "Do not eat contents of crayon box" - these are all legitimate statements. That was lost on this user.

When I saw the title of this video my heart sank because I just spent 5k on a brand new build. I was like what in the mad truckery is going on??!! I was like "Do I have to go back to Micro Center and take the Mobo, Chip and Memory back or downgrade to an older AMD CPU??" I am on the fence about Jays video. He could have made this video a different title like "How to seat a CPU properly both AMD and Intel" And then he could have shown examples from past releases of genuine manufacturer errors versus user errors. I am on the fence if this video needed to be made or not. There are people here that would have loved to have seen a new crazy build video or something along those lines. I for one would have been happier with a build video. For the record I am extremely happy with the 9800X3D and the temps and performance I am getting. This is coming from an Intel fanboy since the 1980s and building my first 386 in 1988.
There was a 2nd post later comparing images. You can clearly see he did not seat it all the way in as the notch was not aligned correctly, meaning it was pushed to the side. Mostlikely due to the broken frame pushing it away
Reddit user name.. Yeah, that's a rtd, not a hardware defect. Dude was probably too overly excited he's gonna be playing veilguard and accidentally messed up..
I upgraded recently from Intel to AMD. It took me 6 hours of a sunday afternoon to finish swapping the parts, because I was extremely diligent. After the first hour of taking it apart, the next 30 minutes was me just reading the manual and very carefully handling the CPU, mobo and cooler to make sure I dont F it up. I cant imagine how someone can buy such an expensive piece of tech and then handle it like a rock on the beach, and then complain on the internet that its not their fault.
If the reddit name does not convince you already........ Not everyone should build a computer. It's very clear what happened here and if your fail to see that your CPU isn't laying flat in the socket when closing the lid, you should not be building a pc (at least not while doing drugs). If the socket would have been damaged during manufacturing you would 100% sure be able to notice it's not flat in the socket.
great timing on this video, picked up a 9800x3d from MicroCenter on launch day but my mobo just arrived and i was thinking i'll watch jay's new video while i seat my CPU. glad that you pointed out that there should be the slightest wiggle on the cpu when its installed correctly because i was just wondering if i had done something wrong. :D
It's AMD's first LGA, which is why I avoided the first generation. Bent pins are definitely due to user error-they put it in the wrong way and bent the pins. PGA AM4 still has its advantages.
You can see damage on one of the keys (pause and compare the left one in the video at the 6:00 mark ) you can see it was messed up a little. Indicating to me that the cpu was installed improperly.
Sounds like a case of "I was told not to touch the hot stove and then go mad at the stove for getting burned." Maybe that alignment triangle was just a suggestion at this point.
@@Audiosan79 I'm assuming Steve paid more than the list price. They guy likely got _at least_ the full price of the CPU and mobo. Steve will get far more in ad money from the video
@@NJ-wb1cz a smart guy once said, assumptions is the mother of all f@@kups. Steve are paying what the CPU cost, so that the guy can get a new one. Thats it.
There are additional photos in the reddit thread showing the metal socket cover been bent at corners where you apply pressure to latch it. So excessive force was used to socket the CPU in place, resulting in damage CPU/Motherboard Socket, and Socket Cover as it was installed incorrectly. Bending that metal socket cover is indicative of user error, because it requires use of excessive force to lock it in place.
I think you are spot on this spot! It's also possible, tthe Reddit user recieved a damaged MB that had been returned, passed QC, then put back for sale. In defense of the sales RMA Dept, this damage would be easily missed.
Ah shi- here we go again. Jokes aside, If there are not more people having very similar issues than it's probably the persons own fault. Edit: Or the manufacturers misstake, like Jay mentioned in the video, allthough It's unlikely.
Click bait titles truly do suck I almost didn't click this video because I thought it was going to be a rant about a recall of CPU's on the way Instead, I got a detailed and thorough analysis of a alleged case of hardware failure that likely wasn't You're videos are awesome
Users when Zen 4 cpus were burning up chips n motherboards last year: 😐 Users when Intel Chips did the same thing this year: 😠 Users when AMD chips burn up again this year: 😐
I was just coming down here to say the exact same thing - User Error. To add is: Depending on which side of the socket was damaged, could determine the directional "Tilt" the CPU had. So based on the scorch marks being mostly inside on the right segment, it wouldn't appear that the CPU was slightly lifted on it's west side of the socket, or the North side, if that makes sense, as the angle from the tilt would mean the most point of resistance would be on the outermost sides of the CPU as it would be the region with least contact, and least resistance.
25 years ago, a friend was bench testing his new computer in his basement, with my help. Much like this, he kinda jammed the new AGP card in the best he could, powered it up, and it burnt up both the very pricey motherboard and the very pricey videocard.
User error confirmed. The 9800X3D shifted slightly during installation. It took at least two attempts to push the LGA lever down into place.
Yeah i saw the post earlier today, with the plastic on the side chipped it was obviously (in my opinion) not installed correctly, probably rotated when installed and forced in.

And that is why you must wiggle CPU in socket before closing the bracket, obviously CPU sat on that plastic edge and key and totally crushed it preventing contacts from developing
enough pressure causing high resistance and then damage from heat, i am willing to bet that if he cleaned those contacts on CPU and put it in another motherboard it would work just fine.
Personally, I would never wiggle a CPU in a LGA socket especially. Maybe ever so slightly if it hasn't seated. I really truly feel like the wiggle thing is for am4 so that way it seats into the socket with those pins. You do you but just be careful
That user also thinks the economy is good
No way the person admits this anyway. That just means they can't get another
You could put "Don't click here" and I'd still probably watch to see what trouble you guys are causing lol.
when I first saw this I was like "oh great these motherboard brands didn't learn their lesson from the 7800X3D issue"
Exactly bro
Haha. Thanks for @10:25 😂 Stupid hating...
1 user does not a "story" make
it seems 1 user can make a viral story then a few hours later the story if false will be debuked and whoever the user is shamed.
That was part of Jay's takeaway at the end.... I think he did this to try and prevent Steve from making a mistake lol. Steve getting scammed on this one.
Thanks Yoda.
There are 2, but they are both user error.
The OP on reddit is mad at Jayz2Centz because he called him out for playing the victim. He then continues to argue the CPU was oriented correctly but wasn't sure if it was seated correctly. We all saw the picture bro, it wasn't seated and he continues to play the victim. We will see what they find, blah blah blah. You already know it was you bro...
Gamer's Nexus just paid someone, that claims he built 12 PCs prior, for misaligning the CPU and forcing it into failure.
A singular case of this happening when all the 9800x3d cpus have been purchased and are currently OOS, I see this as user error currently but am open to being proven wrong.
I worked at microcenter for a few years as a service tech, and I cannot tell you how many times I had to work on personal builds under diagnostics only to find that the CPU was installed wrong, bending the pcb of the cpu itself. Also seen people that put the cpu sticker that comes with it on the actual IHS under the thermal paste…
I had to tell someone that had his “engineering friend” build it for him, that he had to replace the 5820k because it was installed upside down, they didn’t pay attention to the notches in the pcb of the cpu and the socket of the mobo. Super expensive mistake.
That cpu was installed wrong, and turned on, and blew up. 100% user error!
One failure doesn’t indicate a problem to me
hahah fanboy
@@quequeissominhagenteCope harder Inteloven 'tistic soy🤡
But a Reddit user said so. Checkmate. 😛
But a clickbait title gives more money. Greed always wins.
Esp. coming from Reddit, hahaha. So obviously user fault. Glad Jay made that clear.
Whenever I hear of user error as a software engineer, I remember this quote
'Software engineering is the act of attempting to create idiot proof software while the universe creates bigger idiots, so far the universe is winning '
"Aim gun away away from face" - "Do not eat desiccant/laundry detergent pack" - "Do not eat contents of crayon box" - these are all legitimate statements. That was lost on this user.
"Do not make stupid user names on the internet"
Amazing video and really do enjoy these breakdown videos. I hope you are feeling better! Keep up these amazing break down videos and as a builder of pcs I do find your videos an amazing resource for information!
So many outlets talking about a smoking gun \ user error..... stop the drama, user fudged his install.
100 percent. Intel fans tryin to blame amd because they are holding onto intels massive F 😂❤. Long live Red Amd.
@@EarthSouthside tbf amd had their SoC drama not long ago too, just got overshadowed with intels problems which appeared couple of months later. in the end both companies got their massive F's for failing to talk with manufacturers & fail on their end not having any safeguards.
@@Vss077 The SoC drama was 1 year before the Intel shitshow hit the fans. And the SoC drama lasted about 2 weeks before it was fixed. And every wrong was done right. So no, it was not overshadowed by the Intel problems.
With a name like that, I'm surprised he collected enough donation/unemployment/homelessness money to get a PC Build together in the first place... 45-47 took its karmic revenge REAL quick.
The same Redditors who can't figure out 12vHP connectors?
I watched a youtuber blaming a store for selling the wrong ram. In fact, he couldn't read ram label correctly and made an apology video.
Figures that a redditor with TDS wouldn't know the sockets orientation. "It's fluid" 😂😂😂
It took 2 seconds to figure out he fooked it up himself, why is this getting so much attention?
Because people still need to be aware of it

Makes good clickbait
@@thelespauldude3283 no, they don't. You can jam all sorts of things in countless creative ways and fry your parts.
This is literally just Intel fan or Intel marketing coping, creating FUD out of nothing
Good fable to teach people to be extra cautious when installing a cpu though - needs coverage of like "this is what happens if you force your cpu in"
Honestly your videos could have the title "New vid watch yo!" And I would still watch it
Whos' the guy on Reddit?
Stefan from The Verge?
oooof
What is he doing these days?
@@N0N0111 I hope not building PCs 🤣
@@Awaken2067833758 i know LTT had him on after the verge video and got him to build a pc with guidance.
I have a feeling that the guy named "TrumpPooPoosPants" probably isn't the most trustworthy source
The left key seems to also be damaged.
You mean the one we literally circled in the video?
@@JayztwocentsYou can’t expect that commenters watch the full video, come on.
When I saw the title of this video my heart sank because I just spent 5k on a brand new build. I was like what in the mad truckery is going on??!! I was like "Do I have to go back to Micro Center and take the Mobo, Chip and Memory back or downgrade to an older AMD CPU??" I am on the fence about Jays video. He could have made this video a different title like "How to seat a CPU properly both AMD and Intel" And then he could have shown examples from past releases of genuine manufacturer errors versus user errors. I am on the fence if this video needed to be made or not. There are people here that would have loved to have seen a new crazy build video or something along those lines. I for one would have been happier with a build video. For the record I am extremely happy with the 9800X3D and the temps and performance I am getting. This is coming from an Intel fanboy since the 1980s and building my first 386 in 1988.
He repeatedly said that it could be his fault so why are you saying he's playing the victim?
Ok so why make the post then ?! If he fu©ked up why be surprised it burnt up ?
Brah, he needs to justify the clickbait title.
There was a 2nd post later comparing images. You can clearly see he did not seat it all the way in as the notch was not aligned correctly, meaning it was pushed to the side. Mostlikely due to the broken frame pushing it away
I don't need clickbait to watch a JTC video! Thanks again!!!!
Reddit user name.. Yeah, that's a rtd, not a hardware defect.
Dude was probably too overly excited he's gonna be playing veilguard and accidentally messed up..
How did you say “we need the redditor to be honest” with a straight face? 😂
You couldn't install a slot CPU the wrong way round, maybe we need to go back 25 years
I upgraded recently from Intel to AMD. It took me 6 hours of a sunday afternoon to finish swapping the parts, because I was extremely diligent. After the first hour of taking it apart, the next 30 minutes was me just reading the manual and very carefully handling the CPU, mobo and cooler to make sure I dont F it up.
I cant imagine how someone can buy such an expensive piece of tech and then handle it like a rock on the beach, and then complain on the internet that its not their fault.
UH OH Clickbait title is clickbait! BOOOOOOO !!! Stop it Jay, you are better than that.
If the reddit name does not convince you already........ Not everyone should build a computer. It's very clear what happened here and if your fail to see that your CPU isn't laying flat in the socket when closing the lid, you should not be building a pc (at least not while doing drugs).
If the socket would have been damaged during manufacturing you would 100% sure be able to notice it's not flat in the socket.
Well, if Reddit says so..
great timing on this video, picked up a 9800x3d from MicroCenter on launch day but my mobo just arrived and i was thinking i'll watch jay's new video while i seat my CPU. glad that you pointed out that there should be the slightest wiggle on the cpu when its installed correctly because i was just wondering if i had done something wrong. :D
It's AMD's first LGA, which is why I avoided the first generation. Bent pins are definitely due to user error-they put it in the wrong way and bent the pins. PGA AM4 still has its advantages.
Technically their second LGA release/refresh. Overall it's user error.
You can see damage on one of the keys (pause and compare the left one in the video at the 6:00 mark ) you can see it was messed up a little. Indicating to me that the cpu was installed improperly.
That guy should've bought a console.
And put power cord intro ethernet
I bet it's user error. Just look at his name. Someone who makes politics his identity is usually not the brightest candle on the cake.
Damn still love AMD tho.
Thank you Jay!!! I appreciate you and your teams work.
Sounds like a case of "I was told not to touch the hot stove and then go mad at the stove for getting burned." Maybe that alignment triangle was just a suggestion at this point.
its like Geneva suggestion. too small to notice.
2 minutes in I can see that he damaged the pins during installation lol
It an expensive mistake, he's probably not going to admit it.
Bingo. And the plan worked if Steve buys this CPU off of him
@@NJ-wb1cz Steve will humilate him. Good. xD
@@NJ-wb1cz He still need a new motherbord tho.
@@Audiosan79 I'm assuming Steve paid more than the list price. They guy likely got _at least_ the full price of the CPU and mobo. Steve will get far more in ad money from the video
@@NJ-wb1cz a smart guy once said, assumptions is the mother of all f@@kups. Steve are paying what the CPU cost, so that the guy can get a new one. Thats it.
*The real question is:* _"If "One Redditor" makes a sound... does their mom hear it?"_
"one reddit user says yes" 🤣
There are additional photos in the reddit thread showing the metal socket cover been bent at corners where you apply pressure to latch it. So excessive force was used to socket the CPU in place, resulting in damage CPU/Motherboard Socket, and Socket Cover as it was installed incorrectly. Bending that metal socket cover is indicative of user error, because it requires use of excessive force to lock it in place.
One jealous intel fanboy did it
I think you are spot on this spot! It's also possible, tthe Reddit user recieved a damaged MB that had been returned, passed QC, then put back for sale. In defense of the sales RMA Dept, this damage would be easily missed.
User error. One out of how many hundreds of thousands of CPUs out there.
Maybe this THE guy behind UserBenchmark 😂😂😂
10:28 intel femboys lol
Yep! The broken plastic of the socket was the very first thing my eyes and senses zoomed into in those pictures at the start of the video.
Clickbait sensational titles arent your fault?
They absolutely are. You always have a choice.
"I had a burger for breakfast" Oh yeah, he knows what's up.
Also the key nubs were damaged.
Would be hilarious if it's the userbenchmarks guy.
I watch your content because it’s fun and impartial not because you have clickbait in the titles. Please stay away from that nonsense in the future.
There are more images of this, and 1 image shows the retention bracket has a buckle/bend. (Where AMD Ryzen is laser etched)
Jay said "1 reddit user says so" and I already knew this was a non issue.
it was an ID-10T error...i wish i was the one who came up with that.
Ah shi- here we go again.
Jokes aside, If there are not more people having very similar issues than it's probably the persons own fault.
Edit: Or the manufacturers misstake, like Jay mentioned in the video, allthough It's unlikely.
looked at the pic for 2 seconds and I thought the same thing. he fucked up and then cooked his CPU
1000% said idiot put CPU in the wrong way and proceeded to crush the plastic of the socket after forcing the ILM closed ontop of the CPU.
0:04 "Redditor user?" Is that someone who uses redditors? 😂😂
Dumb video. It's a user error.
Click bait titles truly do suck
I almost didn't click this video because I thought it was going to be a rant about a recall of CPU's on the way
Instead, I got a detailed and thorough analysis of a alleged case of hardware failure that likely wasn't
You're videos are awesome
Users when Zen 4 cpus were burning up chips n motherboards last year: 😐 Users when Intel Chips did the same thing this year: 😠 Users when AMD chips burn up again this year: 😐
Did you watch the video?
On top of what you said, if you watch the image, that board also has a bunch of bent pins on the left side, which also fits with user error.
That kids mom is probably pissed the warranty is voided.
I was just coming down here to say the exact same thing - User Error. To add is: Depending on which side of the socket was damaged, could determine the directional "Tilt" the CPU had. So based on the scorch marks being mostly inside on the right segment, it wouldn't appear that the CPU was slightly lifted on it's west side of the socket, or the North side, if that makes sense, as the angle from the tilt would mean the most point of resistance would be on the outermost sides of the CPU as it would be the region with least contact, and least resistance.
Pins on CPUs, how I miss you. No bending CPUs, no burned sockets, no damaged sockets.
RIP
25 years ago, a friend was bench testing his new computer in his basement, with my help. Much like this, he kinda jammed the new AGP card in the best he could, powered it up, and it burnt up both the very pricey motherboard and the very pricey videocard.
