No idea, only MSI can answer what they think the cause is. Unless timing X is pointing at bit Y for some reason (MSI reckon they have fixed all the sub-timing issues) there is no software explanation. My boards don't like anything past 16X Uncore with Hyper at CAS 8~9 over DDR3 1900. I see you guys aren't having the same problem and I've seen the subs you are using, so I don't know what to think at this point, I can only go by what I am seeing here. Outside those settings there is nothing else in software that should cause this to manifest. I've used two differnt CPUs as well and it still happens.

Forget stress testing, 32m single thread while benching is almost instant lock and reset (most I get is the first loop and sometimes into the second) even with some very loose subs. 3000~3200MHz Uncore on air/water for stress testing is just about doable with DDR3-2000, but anything higher and the boards I have fall over (BSOD, lockup) fast. Same parts on three other boards do a lot better with lower overall voltage and tighter timings.
