All this fuse does is tell AMD that the chip has had custom clocks or voltage applied to it (this appears to also apply to underclocking and undervolting as far as I can gather)
It does not prove that if the chip is faulty that it must be the OC/undervolt/whatever that caused it.
Think of those water detection strips in other products. They can tell the manufacturer if something has been in a humid environment, but just because it has been doesn’t guarantee that that is what caused the fault to come about.
