I have witnessed a Sapphire RX 6800 XT Nitro+ that would reliably crash the system the moment its junction temperature reached 110°C (not 109, not 111, always precisely 110). The initial symptoms looked a lot like what's described in this thread: most games were totally fine, but some games (the ones pushing this particular part of the GPU a little further) would cause a system crash after some play time. The issue would also appear if the card was moved into a system that was perfectly before.

I concede that this is not a hard proof of an issue in the GPU BIOS (we could not attempt an update to test with a newer version). But given how repeatable the issue was, and the fact that the card was part of one of the first production batches, I remain convinced that this was a bug in the thermal throttling mechanism.

For the chipset issue, I have also been able to fully and reliably reproduce the issue on completely distinct B550-based configurations on Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD (also tested with various BIOS versions). That was about 7 months ago.

As much as I want to support the underdog, gotta say I have not been impressed with AMD's QA those last few years.
