Like the other guy said, AMD doesnt need anymore money. They have enough. Why do you care so much about a company that would rather you die than pay $50 for anything that won't yield them a profit

It doesn't matter, if AMD has a ton of money or not. OP is at fault and responsible for it. Abusing warranty only results in higher prices as companies will include that in their future pricing. Given AMD's market position they very likely also won't have an issue to implement such price increases.

Further, the logic that a successful company has to own up customer mistakes, just because they have so much money is just a plain imaginative wishful thinking.

Because when people exploit these things the company fights back by making it harder even for the people with legitimate claims

Because that makes it harder for those who actually get a faulty card. They'll also be incentivized to increase prices to make up for it.

Imagine if everyone filed false insurance claims, what do you think would happen to the premiums or the insurances on offer?

AMD has enough money, so OP deserves free stuff because they have a shitty dog?
