when c2d came out and before it became common knowledge that not all are the same concerning temperatures, cause of IHS and stuff i played with "overheating" mine quite a bit, i couldnt believe the temps and was also wondering when it will throtle and shut down....well i throtteled it 100 times and even let it shut down at 111c (asus probe) a few times and the chip is still running strong, they seem quite durable......oh ya in the end my chip just needed lapping......

but in case of this thread i think it might be some bug/incompatibility more than such high heat, its a 4300 allendale afterall
