Yep...soo my 980x just bit the dust? WTF!!! Was running it 1.35vcore 1.2VTT @ 4.3ghz for a week...the voltage was well within intels specs.

@ PULSAR:
What stepping is/was your 980X? Did you read FUGGER's post: Intel X980 OC Report ?
It outlines strengths & weaknesses in the steppings to date. He says that B1s are good, A0s die.
Hope it's just a memory failure, mate.

BTW, just thought I'd give Supercomputer Week a nice little kick to get it under way:

Its a B1, I haven't tested another cpu yet. With the chip in nothing is displayed on the diagnostic display. When I remove the chip I atleast get a readout. Hope its not the memory either $450 dom gt.
