The saga is about to conclude.
The Gigabyte motherboard GA-MA790FX-DS5 with an AMD Phenom quad-core is unstable under full load, period. I suspect the memory controller setup, but Gigabyte has been unable to reproduce (under Windows).
Well... at least you can stop worrying.
Last week I purchased an MSI board (K9A2 CF) with slightly lower specs (primarily AMD790X instead of -FX chipset) - yesterday I installed it with the same components (cpu, psu, memory, disks etc.). Earlier this afternoon it completed a 24 hour burn-in run with mprime stresstests going at full throttle - showing no problems whatsoever.
:-)
Right now it's running four copies of mprime plus a Kubuntu installation in Virtualbox, and a Firefox3 beta. (I'm browsing the net whilst waiting for Kubuntu to make some progress).
I'd be surprised if with that load it does "some" progress :-p - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
