9950X3d + X870E Nova Wifi started to get '03' code three times every cold boot
So I think I have the classic signs of a dying CPU based from the experiences and comments here in Reddit and right now I'm just ruling out a few more things (full reseating and CMOS stuff) in a desperate way to maybe save my CPU/Mobo or whatever is at fault.
Last week I got the code '03' and I do not know what it was so I just turned off and on my PC again and it booted to windows without any issues then the day after it happened again but I needed to turn off/on my computer three times before I reach windows and it's been like that for a few days.
I did some digging and saw the reports here and then I updated my bios from 3.15 -> 4.43, used default UEFI settings, turned off EXPO and for 5 consecutive days I didn't get the code '03' then on the 6th day I got it again and yet again still three times of turn off/on cycle before booting successfully.
Does anyone have any success in fixing this? I saw the LN2 workaround but some said that it doesn't really fix the core issue and will still going to lead to '00' longer. Every morning is full of dread and anxiety if it will still boot up but it seems that I have to accept the fact that I will have to RMA my CPU/Mobo along with the headache.
Does AMD still accepts RMA fast as long as I have the requirements and proof of purchase? I've read that ASRock support is a hit or miss but the comments about that was from a few months or a year ago so I'm not sure what's the situation now.
