I believe OCers should always avoid the boards with entry level PWM sections
That's not the noly problem P55 boards have been having...have you guys seen this yet?

So, who's fault is it? Intel's for designing a CPU that changes voltages on the fly thus causing stress on the motherboard? Or is it the manufacturers not putting in more research time and QC time to make sure every board can meet Intel's design requirements?
well from the op's link it does sound like the OCP isnt working. on the other hand it could be something wrong with the PWM design or socket. there are a bunch of IF's right now.So, who's fault is it?

My Vcore was not even that high. 1.57V maximum.

btw Evil there is an F4 (beta I think) BIOS for the UD2, Anandtech tested with that one. In the THG article that talks about P55 VRM sections blowing one manufacturer says that overcurrent protection can be implemented in BIOS. I wonder how much of this has to do with the wackiness of Turboboost and shifting clockspeeds combined with overclocking.

Guys...on extreme cooling we've been pushing i7 to 1.7V+ for almost a year...1.57V really isn't that much under proper cooling
but but not on 4 phase based boards you havent. lol
next thing i know you go try it,hahaha
you check your pm box?
