Did you miss der8's testing and his graphs?
The problems with the 2080ti showed up months after release, no? Configuration wasnt relevant. You drop an amd chip in any mobo and it's a crapshoot if you received the specs on the box. Different situations to me.
I also want to note that I'm personally not fired up. It is what it is. I said it before in the discussion threads this isnt a huge deal (nvidia cards dieing happened to a much smaller percentage, but still worse). But make no mistake about it, this is AMDs snafu. If it wasnt, the same chips would work in the same boards...but some worked and some didnt. It wasnt the boards.

I never said you were fired up, just a general comment on reading through topics in regards to such things.
You mean the poll info that was discussed here about der8auer's youtube video?
Folks posting in that thread couldn't agree on his data results as being useful or not - read through them all again if you can't recall.
Point is, you and no else outside of AMD still know if the issue was a result of poor work on AMD's side or if it was a circumstance beyond their sight and scope of testing they did.
It just seems salty that folks outright blame a company based on what little information is actually available.

Der8auer: Only Small Percentage of 3rd Gen Ryzen CPUs Hit Their Advertised Speeds
World famous overclocker Der8auer published his survey of boost clocks found on 3rd generation Ryzen CPUs. Collecting data from almost 3,000 entries from people around the world, he has found out that a majority of the 3000 series Ryzen CPUs are not hitting their advertised boost speeds. Perhaps...
