That sounds like bull, cuz there are people putting far more than that on this very thread, and not a single one has complained of a dead chip.
I never wrote that 8 CPU's died . They just degraded . You should read more carefuly next time !

Mainly I reported less Mhz stable . 8 cpu's till yesterday ... 9 today , as another user in a forum here in Greece today reported that his CPU has lost Mhz also.

Also , 3 QX9650 (Hipro5 , Shamino , Victorwang) . You can find the posts here in XS for these CPUs. Also there is one 8400ES that died while benching (ln2) .

A new poll has been opened in thelab.gr today and already 38% voted that they noticed a degradation ... 33% doesn't tried with voltage so they don't know ... and 16% voted that the clocks are the same .
