9800X3D - International Warranty?

Hey guys, so I just got the B650 Steel Legends motherboard in the mail last week, around the same time it came to my attention of Fried 9800X3s with asrock Mobos.

I got the mobo on Amazon, and they will refund the morherboard no problem, I just lose 15e for initial shipping costs.

As for the CPU, I bought it in Australia a few weeks ago, but Ive now moved back Ireland. If the CPU frys, will AMD send me a new CPU to Ireland and cover the all the costs? Or will they only give it to me in Aus, where I will then be responsible for shipping,l and Vat, which will likely costs around 200 euro.

Does anybody have any advice? My options seem to be:

  1. Sending back my Mobo and buying a different brand, such as Gigabyte Aorus B650 Elite AX Ice or Gigabyte Aorus Elite Ax V2 (200euro). Its funny because I paid a premium, 250euro, to get the steel legends Mobo because it was so highly regarded and I really liled the aesthetic 🙃

    1. Sitting on the issue for awhile and see what happens (3.2 bios fixed). Im still waiting for a monitor and GPU (holding out for possibly 9070XT).
    2. Risking it and seeing what happens. Potentially costing me my CPU as Im unsure on how the warranty would work now that ive moved abroad. I could be liable for shipping and VAT from Aus -> which wouldnt be cheap. Probably somewhere from 150->250 euro (?)

Thanks :)
