Sorry for the long post
So I bought a pc a couple of days ago(5/11/2023). The system itself is as follows:
CPU: Ryzen 9 5900x
Mobo: Asrock B550 taichi razer edition
GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070 SUPRIM X
PSU: Gamemax Rampage 750w modular
Fans: Corsair RGB
500gb ssd
1tb ssd
RAM: Kingston's fury beast 32 GB DDR4
As some of you may know of the recurring issue of the CPU getting stuck in a rebooting loop if it's not set to it's base stock frequency of 3.7.
Well when I went to buy the pc, we runned a benchmark on it with extreme settings, and also tried a game Star field, but as you may have guessed that was just a short half an hour of testing during which nothing happened.
When I got home I reset the windows, everything was working okey, then I loaded the bios with optimized settings, an integrated feature of any bios.
Welp right after that the issue of the loop reboot started happening, I spent 3 days troubleshooting
I changed the storage media and swapped them out
as well as the RAM sticks
Tried formatting the SSDs
tried installing a fresh windows
But could not complete the instal as it would be interrupted by the rebooting issue.
Well I looked it up, and I had to limit the CPU to it's base frequency for this problem to stop.
Bios version is 1.6, not a beta one
I did install all the chipset drivers and other drivers as well
It's not rebooting constantly, but rarely, so same issue
After 3 days of troubleshooting myself, on the 3rd day I also contacted the guy which I bought it from, and lo and behold, he knew about this particular problem I was having, he even sent me the exact forum page I needed to solve it and said he had this problem with it as well. Now the problem is, I don't wish for a system that's not fully usable, even more so when it was advertised as fully functional.
But he is refusing any kind of responsibility, saying I messed with it when I tried troubleshooting the issue by swapping out the storage medias and RAM. Or saying I tried overclocking it and messed it up.
But
1 such an issue has nothing to do with the storage media or the RAM

You can clearly check of a system was overclocked or not and I surely did not try to when I was out of my wit's trying to figure the issue with the loop reboot.
Some of the fans stopped lighting up, he uses that as a reason as well, just checked and it's because of the rbg controller, half of the ports are not working, probably faulty controller or because of the nonstop rebooting it went through.
But then again, thats no reason to avoid assuming responsibility and take his pc and give me my money, since he clearly said
He had the issue as well.
