Got an email from some lawyers. There's a class action law suit, that's already been won against AMD for owners of: FX-8120, FX-8150, FX-8320, FX-8350, FX-8370, FX-9370, or FX-9590 CPUs.
Claims for the settlement money ($300) must be in by January 2020, and the award money to be paid out in Feb. 2020.
I'm an 8350 owner.

A settlement has been reached in a class action lawsuit against Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD” or “Defendant”), alleging it violated the law by misrepresenting the number of “cores” in certain of its AMD FX CPUs.
You are included if you purchased one or more of the following AMD CPUs either (1) while residing in California or (2) after visiting the AMD.com website (or both): FX-8120, FX-8150, FX-8320, FX-8350, FX-8370, FX-9370, or FX-9590.
Those who file claims will be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of the Settlement Fund, up to $300 per CPU purchased. If you do not have proof of your purchase(s), you may not make a claim for any more than five (5) CPUs.
