Mainboard Issues on FW13

I bought my first FW computer in November 2022. I use my computer frequently, but mostly for simple tasks (office work during the day, watching movies at night, and some scientific computing).

It was equipped with an i5-1240P. In September 2024, the mainboard failed while I was using the computer. I replaced it with an i5-1340P. This mainboard also failed a few weeks ago, again while I was using the computer. Are you aware of any particular weaknesses with the i5 boards that would cause them to fail after a little more than a year? Are there types of computer usage that contribute to rapid mainboard failure?

Did they both fail in the same way? Like, stone cold dead?

Yep … both of them

I’m assuming you’ve contacted framework about this?

Yes, I did.. each time I get the same answer: your main board is dead… please change it.
