I'm trying to determine if this is a systemic problem or just a fluke. It seems like a design flaw, with the spring being too much for the soldered wire loop. Has anybody else seen this? If so, with how many cards & of what types?

I've seen this sort of failure on the chipset heatsink on a Soyo P4 motherboard. I used superglue to 're-anchor' the wire loop into the motherboard. The repair outlasted the motherboard (which eventually died due to bad [expanding & leaking] capacitors).
