Does AMD have a year (or longer) warranty?

post #1 of 10
Thread Starter 
My 3870k APU artifacts to hell when I leave my computer on for more than a few hours. No overclocking, excellent temps. Does AMD provide any kind of warranty past the 30 day newegg thing?

Oh i thought people keep it.... Since it actually has the number you need to declare warranty.
So no you now need to buy a new APU.

Wow I wouldnt even have thought that possible, for the APU to fail without affecting the CPU. Have you ruled out the possibility that it could be your ram?

Yeah RAM stick's been fine in several other computers.

I tried driver sweeper in safe mode + latest official catalyst stable build. Still installing. I don't know why it would work this time but I'll let you know.

I wish FM2 and FM1 were compatible though. frown.gif

I just checked my warranty card for an FX-8350, it says there's a 3 year warranty. I would expect it to be the same for all their cpu's.

Is there any chance in hell of a refund/return without the box?

would the serial number on the cpu itself not count for warranty purposes?

I can't say I've ever RMA'd a CPU before
