Potentially destroyed my 9950X

Pros: I was gonna not MSI, AM5, great price point, however read the over all review.
Cons: CPU nuked the Mobo; Mobo nuked the CPU; This is the exact reason I walked away from Intel; Costing me even more money.....
Overall Review: Built the PC, bios updated, started doing the boosting and and built in over clocking in the bios one step at a time. So bios up date, restart, clock ram up, restart. Gamed in between just to make sure everything was going great, got all the way to the last part which was the CPU auto boosting, was promoted to restart, restarted and the permeant black screen was gifted to me. Unsure if the mother board did it or if it's a voltage reg defect in the chip. But here we are, another Mobo X/ X3D combo burning up. The funny part is I left Intel for their chips, I did 3 RMAs on my i9 14900K over the last year for the same CPU board deg issues. Irony I guess
