Скачать или смотреть CPU SCAM: AMD Ryzen 9800X3D Counterfeits & Fraud

Sponsor: Montech HS01 Pro on Amazon https://geni.us/UYLeZn and HS02 Pro https://geni.us/ABM9fEB
One of our viewers got scammed with a fake AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU. The CPU didn't work at all, so we bought it from the viewer, confirmed it was non-functional, and then delidded the 9800X3D -- all to reveal there was never silicon to begin with. This interesting story digs deeper into ways to tell fakes and counterfeit CPUs apart, verification tools from AMD and Intel, and more. It's wild how good of a forgery this 9800X3D was.
