[Patch]

I just noticed this thread and should have posted here earlier.

980x Q3FE ES A4 DEAD AT 1.75v after only a few hours.
LN2
-160 no CB yet, CBB unknown - no chance to test
Only benched Vantage, no 2D testing yet
Classified 4way
Win 7
Crossfired 5870's (water+air)

CPUZ 1.54 kept freezing with more than one tab open. Any others with that problem?

Only benched Vantage under cold.

36,734 crossfired 5870's

New retail CPU on the way to make sure it isn't the mobo that's dead

I don't remember exactly, but I think it may have been close to that as I was pushing uncore a bit. Hmm....methinks I've been treating these 32 nm's too much like Bloomfield and been a bit too cavalier with some voltages. Lost a Clarkie a few weeks ago and thought it was a fluke.

Sorry to hear that patch, if you need a 1366 cpu just hit me up i got a spare one you can use to test it out.

Thanks for the offer but a replacement's supposed to arrive tomorrow.

Maybe......got it as part of a hardware trade with 3rd parties from Taiwan involved.

Sry for you loss bro,

Patch, if you can swing some additional voltage details, that'd be great brother so we can keep an eye out for similar occurrances
