AMD has responded to reports of Ryzen CPUs burning themselves to death and asks affected users to contact customer support.

AMD has confirmed it is investigating reports of damaged Ryzen CPUs, and also that it's working with its partners to ensure BIOS limits are in place to keep voltages within spec."We are aware of a limited number of reports online claiming that excess voltage while overclocking may have damaged the motherboard socket and pin pads.

EXPO memory profiles are used to run DDR5 memory at advertised overclocking speeds, akin to Intel's XMP profiles, and do so by increasing memory clocks and voltages to accommodate, including SoC voltage. All of which leads to the visible heat damage present on the underside of some of AMD's latest chips, specifically bulging around the vCore pads.

And while this issue has been linked to Ryzen 7000X3D processors, which come fitted with 3D V-Cache, it's noted that standard Ryzen 7000-series chips are also susceptible in some regard.
