/me has images of Phaestus's Epox board's MOSFET's overheating and desoldering themselves from the board.
Happened to more than one friend who liked to overclock heavily.
Make sure you stick a fan blowing over the mosfet area Phaestus. Those Epox boards
demand that area be actively cooled when pushing hard unless you want instant board death. This is especially a problem with water and/or phase-change cooling where people lose the cooling effect of air coming off a heatsink. Of the two boards I know of that died due to heavy overclocking, one was phase-change, one was water-cooling.
