Damaged my oled now I have to return it permanent damage to coating

After 1 month of trouble shooting and ultimately bringing my computer to a shop to get tested I have found the issue that has been crashing my pc. I spent 1 month with random crashes sometimes my pc would make it to the home screen sometimes get into games but would always randomly crash. I reset cmos, windows re install bios update ddu etc etc. I spent a month trying everything finally bringing it to a shop. The shop tested all my parts and lo and behold it was a bad cpu. What is crazy to me is he said in 30 years of his job he has never just seen a bad CPU like mine. I have recently bought/ built a brand new 7800x3d pc and had got the cpu from amazon “very good” refurbished. Well turns out something must have happened with it because it was causing my crashes. As soon as he put a good cpu in everything worked like normal. I never knew this was very rare let alone possible. I guess it was because I tried overclocking it once?? I have no idea, now I bought a brand new 9800x3d that’s coming tomorrow what a weird thing…

I have had this issue before but now it is back again. I tried installing the same bios update that fixed this issue last time but now it didn’t work. This happened after installing a 9060xt xfx 16gb card. I was using an igpu before. It sometimes loads into windows and sometimes plays games but sometimes it will randomly crash. It crashes every time I open microsoft flight sim 2024 which is what I bought this pc to do. I need help and am not sure what the issue is??!
