This has happended to me many times, you never know where it will crash, maybe the ambient temp is up by 0.5 degree, or maybe a bit of dust on the fans or perhaps some pherial hardware can't handle it. This is the problem of overclocking, it takes weeks to test. >The main reason they don't have problems is because of my testing AND the chips >aren't overclocked much from a technical aspect (whats printed on the chip means >NOTHING.. a 1700+ core have a better 'core' than a 2800+!).

Sometimes cores from the same batch will clock differently, remember the 1 GHz AXIA's? Some would up to 1.5 GHz others only 1.2 or 1.3, it was a lottery. That's my experiences anyway. -S.
