I have been running some 50 AMD and Intel CPUs over the past decade and aside from user-caused failure I have yet to see a CPU die on me during use. Most failures occur with insane overclocking, changing of heat sinks (mechanical damage) but otherwise, I would claim that the odds are microscopically small, regardless of which brand you chose. |
