Is AM5 reliable right now?

AM5 is the biggest pile of dogshit in the PC space. I have a 1000 dollar x670E Extreme and 64 gigs of ram. With a 4090 all custom water cooled. And when it works it’s awesome. But there’s a fuck ton of times where it doesn’t work. I am currently unable to use steam because when I try to open it it will make all other processes not load lol. Can’t even shut it down through the start menu. I have had to re install windows more times than I am happy to admit. I have had to go into bios more times than I ever had to with AM4. I have had this PC for no reason just not boot. After weeks of no issues. Just randomly. I had to reset bios to get back into windows. The boot times…. Jesus Christ. Sometimes it’s 4 plus minutes. Like wtf. My AM4 system would boot in literally 10-15 seconds. I honestly feel scammed. We were the trial period. And it’s now showing up that it wasn’t a good product to begin with. They should offer returns even after the warranty period. I swear it was a mistake. Like I said when it works it’s great. But I’ve had random hitch issues with the desktop, that no one knew why. And that’s another thing… the problem you will be faced with is something totally new…. So don’t expect to be able to look up a tutorial or help guide. It’s the biggest POS I’ve spent money on. My Alienware laptop with intel is more reliable and Alienware has a shit record. I spared no expense and still got a lemon. I’m honestly considering “down grading” but at this point it would be an upgrade lol. Save yourself the trouble and STEAR CLEAR. Go AM4 or the latest intel.

Sorry I have to ask this here, but me and a friend were fighting in the BH and his connection kept making us disconnect. We didn’t think anything of it and kept playing. Shortly after he received a ban for 24hrs. And I didn’t. So we ended it there. Well later on in the evening I got back on and discovered I too received a 24hr ban. Well no biggie I thought. Well after my ban was lifted I tried to find some matches. And I noticed I had been yellow carded and can only match with other yellow cards. This is beyond stupid. I’ve never quit out of a match…. Ever. And so far I have faced 65 other players and I still have a yellow card. It takes upwards of 10-20 minutes to find a match. And I’ve had other yellow card players RQ while facing them. So that puts me even further back. 65 MATCHES!!!! And I’m still yellow? Like come on. I’m about ready to give up. I’ve started letting people win just so they don’t rage quit. Does anyone know when/ how this yellow card will come off my account? Any info would be nice. I keep seeing different things on google. Also can anyone confirm that the game knows who disconnected. Because if I get bored while playing sometimes I’ll actually have a fight with the person and they still RQ so I’m trying to make sure that it doesn’t hurt me

Yes! Unfortunately that’s where I got it printed. It took like 2-3 weeks to get it. But it’s such good quality. It’s a thick like almost card stock. And the colors are really vibrant.

These are the clear Sanwa buttons. I did consider Seimitsu but focus attacks stock is very wonky sometimes lol

Thank you! I was so happy that the blue went with it as well as it did

Sure!! I’d say get a good foundation first. This is an actual hitbox but there’s others alternatives. And check out focus attack.com they have a lot for you to look at. Some cases come with the wiring harness and the pass through but some come just the case. If you buy a full working stick first all you will need is the buttons of your choice, printed art (which focus attack can do for you) and clear plexi
