I killed these CPUs on both the MSI and Gigabyte boards. 1.344V or so on the CPU, 2.38~2.42V on the memory voltage, NB speed around 2000, and the key it appears is that I was using the 1066 setting and clocking up from that point. This has occurred with a couple of other people. AMD is looking at one of the dead CPUs at this time, but they continue to advise us not to run memory voltages above 2.2V for any length of time.

The good news is my 0744 9600 has not died after a week of trying to kill it, but I have noticed a little degradation in memory performance now. It could be I had a couple of weaker than normal CPUs (understand the last production batch is really strong). The main reason for the potential kill problem is something we will discuss shortly.
