Step 1 – Determine the System Builder

AMD’s warranty on processors only extends to customers who have purchased sealed, retail-packaged Processors in a Box.

If the processor came pre-installed in the system, warranty will be provided by the system builder. System builders can range from small, local computer stores and online vendors, to large original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) such as DELL, Hewlett Packard or Gateway.
