Puget says its Intel CPU failure rate is lower than AMD Ryzen failures — system builder releases failure rate data, cites conservative power settings


Puget claims AMD Ryzen 5000 and 7000 chips have a higher failure rate than Intel 13th- and 14th-gen processors, so far.

The data stands in stark contrast to other reports from game developers that have cited from 50% to 100% failure rates for Intel chips in their environments. When viewing the comparative Intel and Ryzen dataset, you should take into account the relatively small sample size coupled with the disproportionate number of units shipped. Intel extended the warranty on its 13th- and 14th-generation processors in response to this, but some customers are allegedly facing RMA horror stories when trying to return their affected chips.
