I recently bought an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X from Best Buy, but I've run into a problem while trying to install it on my AORUS X870E Pro Ice motherboard. The CPU doesn't have any notches on the top or bottom, which is making it impossible to fit it into the socket. Has anyone else experienced this? Also, Best Buy suggested it might be a manufacturing defect.

Sounds like a Best Buy mix-up! It's possible that someone might have swapped CPUs, especially if it was an open box deal. But double-check with them to ensure you got the right one.
