Anthony,
That is my scorecard also. I wish everyone congrats; wait to hear/read
the reports!
I am so close to melting some plastic on one of these new 'pairs.'
Just because I now have a "failing" old platform.
But, I am still XP. I watch/read/hope all this very NEW silicon will
play for me and my
2 versions back OS. I can afford to gamble............ :)
I accept 'Troglodyte!' OK? LOL!!
[where is Bryan when I need him?]
Still, willing to jump into this new pool ATM................ :)
Best,
Duncan

Looks overblown at this point. One reviewer received one board that
had burn issues directly from Gigabyte. There's no evidence yet that
this is widespread, and could even be a manufacturing/testing defect.
It very well may be an issue, but one sample does not make a trend.
In semi-related news, I have a 2500K and P8P67 Pro en route. :)

Might be wise to stay away from Gigabyte at this time if you're into
extreme overclocking.
