when my 1 stick of 10th anniversary died, it died in slot 3. the mem module no longer even showed up when installed (only showed 1 gig instead of 2).

since then, i've only used slots 2 and 4 and have not had any problems.
from what I have heard it seems slot 3 was a big culprit for this for some odd reason....it seemed to occur more often with vdmm of 2.3-2.4...as if the board was overvolt in surge fashion or something( i did see if I recall in the thread some have a stick die even at 2.2v in slot3)

what i find so concerning is the number of manufacturers saying 2.4v is ok on these D9 chips and yet so many are dying on different mobos

I saw OCZ changed there vdmm max on there memory recently with regards to warranty...no longer saying 2.4v is OK
