UPDATE 28/08/2026 -The tech center diagnosed and found out that the old technician BENT 2 PINS and found 1 pin MISSING therefore suggesting me to get a WHOLE NEW MOTHERBOARD because they canât repair the socket here (they also suggested me to ship it to MSI directly to do an out of warranty socket replacement) the issue is Iâm from South America and IDK how much will it be bringing it back with a courierâŠI crunched down numbers and sending it thru DHL would be $174 USDâŠ
My X870E Carbon WiFi is RUINED and Iâm frustrated, devastatedâŠit wasnât cheap and I saw it just went up in priceâŠ
Thus I come once again looking for advice, should I try to get a new one (Iâd have my uncle pick it up from Best Buy bc after Amazonâs last screw up Iâm not buying pc parts thru them again) or send the one I have in for socket replacement? Is the MSI replacement thing trustworthy?
Either way Iâd have to wait and this time Iâd make sure to have the new place handle the proper assemblyâŠ
In the meantime I do have my old rig, Iâd only have to move the 3060 back in and the storage where windows is running fromâŠno games, streams or anything heavier for a whileâŠ
But I was so ready with my new 5070ti Frieren GPU and then this happens đ„șđ©
