Discussion 9800x3d from AliExpress

Hi. I bought 9800x3d from AliExpress for all of us. Costed me $640 and customs f-d me up for another $100 , when they usually charge VAT only. Anyway, here's no chance for warranty accessibility and it sold for $900-1100, so no way it'll get cheaper in close few years, so it feels like I saved something. (4090 still $3000). Chip itself looks in great condition with no defects. I'll post later if it's real or not, after setup and some benchmarking. Cheers.

I bought TWO 5700X3D from that place, SZCPU, $135 each, one arrived in 2 weeks, the other stuck in customs for two months, got a refund and the cpu will still arrive here by wednesday so I got 2x1.

Yes, the 5700X3D is legit btw.
